REACT

How to play REACT by Switch Disco on guitar

REACT is a strong pick if you want a beginner-friendly track that still feels current and energetic. At about 120 BPM, it gives you a steady pulse to lock into, so you can focus on clean changes and a confident groove rather than tricky lead work.

You’ll spend most of your time moving between open shapes and barre shapes, with F#m and B doing a lot of the heavy lifting. The main change to watch is the opening move from F#m to B and back again, then out to A - that shift is where the hand position needs to stay relaxed and accurate.

Start by looping the opening progression slowly until the shapes feel automatic, then add the rest of the song in the same order. Practice the barre chords on their own first, then connect them to the open shapes, and only speed up once your changes sound even and controlled.

Use the play-along above to follow each chord change in time with the music, or learn the shapes first with the chord diagrams below.
