About Jim

I’m Jim Fleser, the author of The Chord Wheel, the best-selling music reference title of the 21st century. Over the years, I’ve helped thousands of musicians see the underlying patterns in music — not just as rules to follow, but as creative fuel. My background blends traditional theory with real-world songwriting, recording, and especially emerging AI platforms. These are all tools and not a replacement for artists. I’ve worked with bands, built production studios, designed educational apps, and composed using both analog gear and cutting-edge software. But at my core, I’m a teacher who loves demystifying music and helping others unlock their creativity. If you're ready to level up your songwriting or finally understand how music really works, I'd love to work with you.

About the lesson

What We’ll Do Together

If you’ve ever wanted to truly understand how music works — not just play it — I’ll guide you through the deep logic of chords, harmony, and songwriting. Together, we’ll explore:

How chords function and connect in real-world songs

Why certain progressions feel powerful or emotional — and how to use that in your own writing

How to build songs from scratch using theory as your creative compass

How to unlock melodic ideas and structure lyrics with musical purpose

Optional: Integrating AI tools (like Suno, AIVA, Output) to support or expand your songwriting process

Lessons are tailored to your level, your instrument, and your goals. Whether you’re writing your first song or refining a complex harmonic idea, you’ll leave each session with new clarity and practical tools — not just abstract concepts.

Deadly! Very clear. Got through a lot. Was able to begin assessing my status quo so we can get started with the learning. He seems knowledgable and honest. Collaborative. Not pejorative. Kind - so that goes to building trust. I think you learn more from people you trust. Flexible. This could be fun getting to hone a craft I wish i would have started years ago. But hey - why not start.
