Probably because you are one of the only ones explaining it in a relatable fashion. I have been playing for 35 years and am quite proficient. I know the modes, but they always give me a headache. Usually they are explained the other way around: 'C ionian is A aeolian. So now we go from C to A aeolian and play. Listen, i sounds different'. And all I hear is C ionian with an Am chord. I guess for most people it makes more sense not to change the root, but the mode. But the gap between the two is almost never fully bridged. The only persons I saw doing that are you and Rick Beato. But your video is way shorter, so I revert back to it a lot. Thanks man!

I think somewhere in the Middle East guitar teachers say: Well, this is Phrygian, sounds the most generic and traditional. And those are other modes, they`re kinda exotic

The most common mode in Arabic music is Maqam Bayati, which is kind of between minor and Phrygian in that it has a half flat second degree. (Yes, half flat, so if you start on G, the second note of the scale is between A♭ and A.) Maqam Rast is the basic mode in Persian music, and it’s between major and Dorian, so the third and seventh are half flattened.

This is more like what joe satriani uses Pitch Axis parallel means something else on the street It's okay cuz you ain't know When you are major I V When you did dorian ii vi also i v in melodic minor Phgrigian iii vii You were using locrian also :-) Lydian IV I. Would sound more lydian if you did not cadence to the I and played anything but the I especially The vii ( f# min 7b5) Mixolydian Your playing a ii V in c major Aeolian vi iii Really just G vi because D root and fifth with G is basically G 9 Locrian over G and D D is not in G locrian But. If you played G min 7b5 and played the 1/2 whole diminished scale on concurrence , you would find the note D This is VERY important You get the diminished principal on the vii chord You can study possibilities for the vii chord and diminished virtually 4 eva

I think he created confusion by playing all those modes over a two note power chord. I can't see how you could play a Dorian scale starting on G over an A minor chord. I would have thought that you would have to use one of a number of minor modes starting on A. And the various features of each scale mode would give a slightly different flavor to your solo ie a minor scale with a flat 2 or a major 6. That was my take on it, maybe I have it wrong. But I don't think playing everything over a power chord helped clarify things.

(Star-Warsesque white robes and a SPACE BUNS hairstyle. ;) ) Ionian: Major is the cheerful, common mode, so she's like, a happy basic b, yaknow? Pink sweater, Ugg boots, happy Popular Girl personality. Mixolydian: is ready to RAWK! (throws up the horns) Aka leather jacket, ripped denim, mohawk, etc. Dorian: Don't bother me, I'm writing my beat poetry. Or maybe a medieval ballad. I dunno. (In Sims 4 each Sim has *8* outfits, so I can explore different sides of a mode that way.) Aeolian: CRAWLING IN MY SKIIINNNN...aka goth/emo. Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way meets intellectual music discussion. :P (Although some of her outfits are elegant.) Phrygian: I could've gone with like, dark metal, but it's ALSO the scale most associated in the west with "exotic" Eastern style music. So I went with Middle-Eastern and Indian looking clothes. Locrian: CRAY. Like, I literally used the "erratic" personality trait, assigned the wrong types of clothes for different situations (a tuxedo as swimsuit for example) random face paint to sleep in because why not, etc. Not a BAD person, though. Just weird. They're all girls (female Sims have ALWAYS had more choice in fashions, it's been true since 2000) and I left each Sim as they randomised in except for changing clothes, hairstyle, makeup and accessories, so they're a mixture of body types and skintones. Sorry this is so long, but hey, I had seven characters to describe. If you have Sims 4 on PC, you can find them in the Gallery. (I actually made TWO versions--one where I used whatever DLC's I needed to in order to tweak them more accurately, and another with just basegame content 'cos not many people have a lot of DLCs. The basegame version is the one in the gallery.) The household is just called "Mode" and my name there is Queen_Zelynda. So, IF there are any other crossover Sims AND music fans here, that's where you can see them. :)

Great video, Jake! What might help out your viewers understand the modes a bit more - a very popular Dorian song is “Scarborough Faire.” Phrygian may sound familiar to some as the scale often used in Flamenco music. Lydian can be playful, and goofy, like a kitten walking on piano keys. Mixolydian is definitely a mode used a lot in Irish and Scottish music. An Aeolian tune everyone knows is “Greensleeves.” Regarding Locrian, some Harp Therapy practitioners who work with people in hospice use Locrian at the very end of life when a person is transitioning to the beyond. The mode is played improvisationally, and sparingly. The reason for using Locrian is that it does not resolve, so the person is not rooted, as s/he might be with the other modes, but encouraged to move on.

You're thinking of a key Relative mode, which I'm used to as well. The intervals are different, when with a different tonic tone. He's explaining Parallel mode, which is new to me. In Relative mode all the modes share the same notes in a key as you said, but they start from a different degree so they're built with different pattern of intervals from the Tonic Tone of that mode. Ionian: Tonic tone is G W H W W W H W G A B C D E F# Dorian Key of G, Tonic tone is A H W W W H W H A B C D E F# G and so on... I was confused by this video but found out that the key different in these modes are that they are Parallel, not relative. He has a great video about 'Relative Modes' that explains how the change of tonic tone can change the mood and feel of music.

@@bryandoyle7055 Relative and parallel are just two ways of looking at the same thing. The whole step/half step sequence and the first (tonic) note are all that matters to determine a mode. The two methods are just used for a different purpose. The parallel method helps you find all modes of a fixed key (G in this case) while the relative method helps you find which modes of different keys share the same notes.

Bands like Korn played around with “alternative power chords” like half diminished triads and perfect fourths, and I used these for a while. Half Dim triads bring a lot of shock value to heavy music, and root/4 power chords have a crunchiness that you don’t get with 5ths. I personally find locrian pretty pleasing with plenty of distortion and an erratic strumming pattern

Switching from a minor 7 shell to a maj7 shell in locrian. (Such as Bmin7 shell to Fmaj7 shell) gives you a good ground work as well. Locrian gives you access to the 4 and b4 which can sound bluesy if done right.

I'm sorry for this comment but that video helps me out understanding some characters in a game. And now I know why Locria betrayed the other one and teamed up with the antagonist in the game. Many thanks! Each of these characters in the game have also a color Ionia's color is green and they have a really good mood all the time. Doria's color is purple. They look a bit "darker" also their proportion is different from the others and they have sunglasses on. Phrygia's color is orange. They are sleeping all the time but they say that they are more serious than the other. They are also living near a volcano hits the sound color Phrygian makes. Lydia's color is yellow and they live really outpaced on a cold area. They take care of little cute snow bunnies and the snow area looks really dreamy and floaty. Mixolydia's (or Missy or Mixo) color is cyan. They also have an upbeat personality but they really have style. They protect something important with... You guess it: With three giant rock golems. Aeolia's color is red and they really don't understand the human's short life span of a human (yes these species are not human even though they look alike with a special clothing taste I really love!). A boy came to Aeolia and they gave him a special ability not knowing which tragicty is about to happen to him and they are also the first of the species who's gonna disappear. Sounds a bit tragic but for these species it's... Romantic however. Locria doesn't have a color because white isn't technically a color. Yeah Locria is a douchebag. He helps to put an innocent world in an "utopia" for someone else, eats bananas and drops the peels on the floor, so everyone is stumbling over them. And he is mean to a poor monkey. So don't hang out with Locria.

Excellent job of teaching. In Jazz we encounter the diminished 7th chord making Locrian an option. It is also great in heavy metal where you also encounter the diminished triad. I think a better description of Phrygian is 'Spanish' flavored it is often used in flamenco, not so much in traditional middle eastern music. You are a good teacher, I hope you are working in the community college system. Your approach has the kind of clarity our students need.

As I was listening, I started realizing that the Dorian and Mixolydian modes were pretty much opposites.

They essentially do the same things, just in opposite directions.

Should have put the ♭5 as the interesting note for Locrian. Also note that each of the 7 modes' 'interesting note' happens to be on the scale's tritone. For example, Dorian's signature note, the ♮6, creates a tritone with the ♭3.

Locrian mode builds off the Leading note of the Ionian sequence which makes it the best scale for jamming over the I Maj7 chord where you start on the 7th note instead of trying to make it fit over a weird I chord. Just my take on it. It's my favourite mode to solo on even applying it over VIm chords to create really nice 9th effect tones.

Not only what you are actually teaching, but the way you teach it is so fun. There's no arrogance or "know-it-all" attitude. Your love of music shines through and it's obvious you want others to share in the love. Thank you!!

This has got to be the best explanation on modes I have ever come across... It finally made me understand how modes work, in the sense that they are based on a simple interval shift. It also finally made me understand that Aeolian is actually the same as natural minor, and that ionian = major ... This was really an eye (or ear) opener for me ... Thank you so much!

Could you do more stuff like this? "Here's a concept, here's how you play with it to create a certain feeling"

Locrian works well for dark metal. Enter sandman by metallica is in locrian (uses the flat fifth frequently in the intro)

I can't say enough how much this lesson helped me. I've been trying to study and figure out modes off and on but just got disinterested cause i couldn't find "logic". I like to really understand why something is the way it is. I don't do well with just memorizing patterns, i need to understand the concept. This video made the light bulb go off and it all just clicked. He's got to be one of the best guitar instructors I have come across period. He's taking what a lot of people portray as super advanced music theory and breaking it down into a process where you can put together all the notes of each mode yourself without having to look them up. I went from not having any understanding of the modes to now having memorized the name of each mode, understanding when to use each mode, and what kind of "vibe" each one creates all because of how he explained it.

I tried jamming in locrian with my band once, and they all told me to shut up and play anything else...back to good ol' pentatonic. I have seen some KZbinrs play in locrian before though, and it can sound really cool. It's not a mode you can just play easily - I think more than any other mode it needs properly scoring and thinking about to make it sound weird, but not unpleasant.
