Episode 18: Diminished 7th Chords

from Music Theory for Songwriters Hosted by Erol Oz

For the half-diminished 7th chord, we take the minor 7th chord and flat the 5th, which is why these chords are often called m7(b5). Fully diminished 7th chords also flat the 7th. When we flat a minor 7th, we get an interval called a diminished 7th chord.
