Music Theory Book

Post by e-motion » Sat Feb 25, 2012 1:52 am

Hey there,

I decided I want to further learn music theory. I know about scales and chords (thanks to Ravensprial) and some years making tunes, but I want to take it a bit further. I'm looking for a music theory book covering this topics plus composition and arrangement. And yes, I want to go beyond Dubstep or EDM.

Book price is not an issue, I'm really looking for the best book there is to learn it. Would prefer something without the classic musical notation but probably there's no good music book without it.

Cheers

I was looking for something deeper. I know the basic theory, I want to learn composition.
