Those of you who subscribe to this myth that somehow learning music theory is going to ruin you as an intuitive musician are buying into a false narrative. You’ve probably been talking to someone who’s been taught in an unfortunate and a prescriptive way. Just like science, music theory exists whether you believe in it or not.
Music theory is just the inquisitive nature of the curious, who want to know why they like certain things and why they don’t like others. So you can repeat on those things and build on them. If you want to, nobody is telling you you have to do anything in a certain way.
Actually, no, I take that back. Some people are telling you that, but those are the people who are ruining music theory for the rest of us. So if someone who wants to learn some music theory or a music production in a Beat Kitchen class, share this post.
