Theory is just a way to explain what is it that you're playing
Don't look at it as a "book of rules" This is something I have said a lot in the past - Theory is a great way of understanding what you play, and suggesting new routes to explore, but it is not something to bind you, exploration is still important! -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Well Said Muris, theory language is primarily there for standardized communication between musicians and to know what they are talking about when talking about music. It should not be considered de facto standard because musician then could not be able to go beyond its limits.

I absolutely agree with Muris. In music there are no rules, try whatever comes to your mind, no matter if any theory tells you that this is forbidden, always try to push your boundaries. If everybody would just obey those rules great bands like for example System of a Down would not exist, those guys don't follow any rule, sometimes their songs are so chaotic and weird, still I love them

I would also say that if you come up with something that sounds amazing but breaks the rules ... just add a new rule to the book! This is what current theory is - a list of rules that people thought led to good sounds, and it can always be added to.

Great tip Muris ! Theory is great to know and will help you a lot but we should not get locked inside it while creating etc.. Breaking the "low" is a cool way to find new boundaries
