According to Plato, Lydian mode is a bad influence to society... He only accepted Dorian and Phrygian modes

...except lydian, dorian and phrygian meant an entirely different thing back then... (ok, music Nazi here)

[@JulioLeonFandinho]

@@tenerefab I think phrygian then was today's dorian and dorian was today's phrygian, so it's almost the same, isn't it? just the 2 same modes with their names interchanged... Also, I like more phrygian and dorian than lydian, but whatever...

[@yasirjafri9915]

In contrast, the scale/ mode similar to Lydian (at least as far as notes go) in Indian classical music is called Yaman Kalyan or Aiman is the very first scale taught by most teachers and would be commonly used by musicians to start their performances and even use in devotional music.

[@tenerefab]

@@JulioLeonFandinho you're correct. as for our "ancient greek" Lydian mode, it was more similar to our ionian, that is, major mode. (why Plato despised it is beyond me!) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lydian_mode. the mess with names came when greek names were given to church modes, in a seemingly random faschion....

Liked these licks a lot. Thank you!

[@richardursin4307]

I discovered a nice trick for playing over Lydian. Exclude the 7th note of the Major scale, or the #4 of Lydian in other words to get a clean pure run of notes only introducing the #4 back and bending it to the 5th for resolution.

First lick is pure Satriani. Satch is the king of Lydian along with Vai. Not putting them down at all. If I could play half as good as them then I would never leave the house and play all day, every day.

[@johnbraucher1499]

Bend the g string and keep your left pinky on the high e while plucking the g string, that way instead of just tapping the g string you can hit that REALLY high note on the high e instead. It sounds like you're hitting a pinch harmonic with a 24 fret. Lol pretty cool. Takes practice to be able to relax enough to press on the high e enough when also bending the g string at the same time but I got it finally down pretty decent.

[@stephen0793]

great tone! perfect Fender tone

[@onevoiceinc]

I have a similar lydian lick like the first example, but I like the additional notes you added. Gonna incorporate it. And yes, Lydian is THE BEST mode. Lydian dominant is fun also.

[@jmacc9876]

I have just been learning this one now in your lessons package which is awesome. I came back to KZbin to comment also because lstening to and learning this lick hit some nostalgia neurons in my brain and brought me way back to the late 80's. I think that one of my favorite songs that I now know to be in lydian is the intro to a song called "The Ballad" By Testament which everyone should give a listen to if they liked this lesson. I learned that intro by tab, ear and memorization but now I know how to actually play the scale/mode it's based in. Thanks Tyler.

I know bugger all about modes and scales -- all that stuff really (I know, shame on me) but the first one immediately reminded me of Point to Point by Animals As Leaders.

[@ophirwesley4424]

Wait. If lydian is just a mode of the major scale, then how are you playing all around the guitar? Are you just moving to different modes but start with lydian? Or do you keep adding notes to the lydian based on the major scale so that it covers the whole guitar?

[@robinsarebirds1153]

What's a mode? How do chords tie in to modes? How do modes tie in to scales and keys? Are modes the same as scales? Are major and minor scales modes themselves?

[@mothafuckinanarchist5392]

A mode is the way a combination of noted is played. In modal jazz and several other kinds of music, specific modes correspond with chords. For instance, the lydian scale is often used on a, Majord 7 chord with a #11. It should be added that these modes are not cut and dry, what is and is not acceptable is vague.

[@mothafuckinanarchist5392]

Major and minor are types of modes, for instance A minor and C major are different modes made up of the same scale. F lydian, G mixolydian, etc are all different modes of these scales as well.
