Brandonnnn, are my eyes cheating me or did you fook up the intervallic structure of the pentatonic scales? At 5:35 you count the notes as "1 2 3 5 6" this seems correct to me, but at 6:01 you write "1 2 3 4 5" Sooooo... why it that, please? Is it a mistake from your side? I am a lil confused.

IF YOU ARE CONFUSED EARLY ON IN THE VIDEO READ THIS: i was confused with this for a long time, learn every note on the fretboard and then ONLY learn the major (ionian) scale and the minor (aeolian scale or natural minor) once you know where every note on the fretboard is then learn about intervals (distance from each note) this will help you much more than this. AND DO IT. we are mostly all self taught and we forget crucial steps like learning all notes on the guitar or what is the actual major and minor scale. you will soon learn that all "modes" are the major scale just with different modes to make it sound more melodic. also if you have done this step this is a way to figure out how to play to a backing track in modes F lydian is in the key of c major ( 1ionian 2dorian 3 phyrigian 4 lydian 5 mixolydian 6 aeolian and 7locrian) if you count back the 4 since its the fourth mode just go back the four flydian 3e phyrigan d dorian and c ionian (major scale) i know this is confusing and this took me ages to understand but IF MODES CONFUSE YOU YOU NEED TO TAKE STEPS BACK! so all together 1 Learn all notes on the Fretboardand i mean every string from 0 to the 12th fret there are several ways of doing it. 2 then learn the major and minor scales ( ionian and aeolian) once you know them you will be so much further than you are now 3 learn intervals and how to modify the major and minor scale to get the modes. i struggled for years with this because i forgot the essentials of makes a guitar a guitar because i just learned songs so yeah go back and take these steps and then come back to this. this was my best way to explain this. i hope it helped

Here's my easy guide to modal music: Sorted from "brightest" to "darkest". Compared to the major scale, the first has a sharp, the third has one flat, the fourth, two flats, and so on. Read below to find how they're _actually_ used. *Lydian* : just don't. *Ionian* : also known as the major scale. *Mixolydian* : if the song sounds okay in major, but you want to add a little something-something. This one gets used a LOT. The vocal line of "You Really Got Me" is in the mixolydian mode. Did I mention it gets used a lot? Which is ironic because it has the most exotic name. *Dorian* : The Pink Floyd scale. That kind of dreary, halfway between major and minor scale that David Gilmour loves. Most of the songs on _Dark Side_ are in the Dorian Mode -- "Time" specifically. Also appears in the "...and I find it kind of FUNny, I FIND it kind of sad" part of "Mad World" -- all caps is wherever the natural sixth occurs, which distinguishes the Dorian Mode from the... *Aeolian* : also known as the minor scale. *Phrygian* : for metalheads, or when you want something to sound Arabic. The bass run in the beginning of "Killing an Arab" is literally just the descending Phrygian scale. Take the minor key, and flat the second, and Ahab's yer uncle. *Locrian* : Remember what I said about the Lydian? That goes double for the Locrian. The only reason to ever write a song in the Locrian mode is to say "I wrote a song in the Locrian mode", and you'll cheat, anyway, by using the flat fifth as a percussive element, leaving all the melodic elements in the Phrygian mode. That's how both Bjork and Bartok pulled it off. Lastly: Minor Pentatonic: The standard blues/rock-n-roll scale. Malcolm Young already discovered every possible way you can play open minor Pentatonic chords, so the rest of us don't have to. Just listen to a lot of AC/DC (and who doesn't like AC/DC? They must be on cigarettes.) Major Pentatonic: If you want to sound like Skynyrd. Also some decent old-school country music. Just like all modes, this one can be used for both good and evil. If you want to be lazy, or you're on cigarettes, other than the major/minor/major-minor pentatonic, the modes that see heavy usage are the Mixolydian and the Dorian. But feel free to stretch your creativity and use others. Or none -- chromatic music is also a thing. I like me some Sonic Youth sometimes.

@Isaacunderscore
@Isaacunderscore 7 ай бұрын
Honestly, I think the approach of starting modes from each note from a major scale is really useless in a practical way. Things like “if you wanna play F lydian, think about the C major scale but start on F”, and not only this is confusing, imagine wanting to play B lydian, you would have to figure out a scale in which B is the 4th note and then play that scale from it. It seems simple in paper, but imagine you’re improvising over a song a it has 2 borrowed chords from let’s say phrygian, it’s too complicated to use this approach in an improvising scenario. Me personally, think “formulas” are way easier to grasp. I.g. Lydian has a #4, so if you want to play C Lydian, just play C major and raise the fourth, makes so much more sense. Another interesting way of looking at modes, is to relate the minor modes to the minor pentatonic scale, since for example, Mixolydian si just adding the major third to the pentatonic. Hope this helps someone struggling to learn modes (just like I did)

The best way to learn scales is to learn them as route notes + octaves. The shaping is exactly the same all over the fretboard. Then you learn corresponding open/bar chords and arpeggios and you basically know a good chunk of guitar theory. This is what really helps you understand songs/riffs/licks you are learning. You still need to learn the shapes, but the route + octave shaping and the key is what is most important.

Scales or modes don't sound original music if they are played vertically. The mode pattern of the first 2 or 3 top strings must be joined in sequence with the next mode pattern of the 3rd or fourth strings, and so on to the next mode pattern played on the 5th or 6th strings, thus the phrase appears to be diagonally descending; can be played diagonally ascending or combination. But these are just the filler melody patterns, in between them there must be an original few notes of melody by your own choice. Then to complete the whole phrase, it must be resolved ending in any of the triads of the last chord in the progression. The number of notes played per beat must be about 4 to 6 notes and distributed equally to form 1 bar. On the chord progression, choose the mode pattern (inversion) to be played on all chords throughout the progression. One or more modes based on any of the chords in the progression may be played. How to play the modes are by your own pre-designed lick patterns (with intervals or skipped notes), usually skip the 3rd and 5th degrees, (only 5 out of 7notes are then played all throughout), but retain the root note. In this way, your melody will sound tensional at first, then will sound beautiful when resolved with the triads at the end of the phrase. Often times, arpeggios are played as resolving portion of the phrase. Watch how Matteo Mancuso plays, (only he does it way too fast and uses many kinds of lick patterns in a phrase).

If you play CDEFGAB, that’s C Ionian; for C Mixolydian play b7/Bb; for C Lydian play #4/F#. Those 3 modes work over a MAJOR TRIAD. Now for Dorian play b3/Eb and b7/Bb; to make that Aolian b6/Ab as well as b3/b7; for Phrygian b2/Db as well as b3/b6/b7. Those 3 work over a MINOR TRIAD. Finally add b5/Gb to Phrygian’s b2/b3/b6/b7. That Locrian only works over a Diminished Triad. - So practice 3 over a C Major triad and 3 over a C Minor Triad, and only one over a C Diminished Triad. - Memorize the formulas. Sing along as you play them over the right chord.

LOL to me everything is a minor box. For example in the key of A, F# minor is A major, B minor is A mixolydian, E minor is A Dorian, D Minor is A phrygian, and G minor is A lydian. Phrygian Dominant is just the relative harmonic minor. I learned this from a jazz player. Now I can change between all my keys and modes like a beast. LOL except I suck at pentatonic scale.

returning to this in case anyone was wondering- to summarize, harmonic (and melodic) have one (or two) degrees raised, that being the seventh (and sixth), to find the shapes of these, you can just look for '[ionian mode] [move seventh per mode you moved, keeping in mind you started from aeolian], which, would result in dorian #4(#3#4 for melodic) for example, or phrygian #5 (#4#5 for melodic), just learn your damn scale degrees, and this is all the knowledge you need!

I dunno, I just learned the 5 positions of pentatonic scale (both major and minor, they just start off on different positions), then figured you can start that and play that on any string / fret, it's just the relation, the intervals, what matters. Then I found the scale with all the 'missing' notes (aka natural scale) and have been practicing that one same way like the pentatonic scale, 5 positions, starting on any string / fret and figuring out 'oh, that's the position I'm currently in' and going up and down, left and right, just noodling around. To me they're the same, but natural scale just has more notes in it. What note and what position (minor or major) you start the scale off with depends on the key the song is in or on your liking if there's no song or backing track you're playing to. I have no idea what those modes are, it's litterally just start wherever you want and play what's allowed within the shapes you're playing occasionally throwing in notes that for some reason still sound good even though they're not supposed to be there. Experienced musicians, explain what in the freaking world I'm doing wrong here? What is it with the modes and stuff? Am I just preceiving it differently or am I actually missing something yet?

I enjoy that the reason you are attaching the modes to the five Pentatonic positions is to play them with the the natural major scale. I appreciate the nomenclature not literally literally on the intervalic structure. However we also know ... That the pentatonic scale shape can be used in other positions than where those modes would associate ... Which ... Still has five notes but it something completely different. I usually practice the latter shape based knowledge as it sounds good and relates to the instrument Since there is a lot to learn about different signs switching between scales. So I do not think of the Pentatonic that way, as you mentioned because it's possible to play the shape in ways that relate entirely differently ... I usually count there without changing the key. I am trying to learn funked up scales and licks mostly because the basics just almost apply but don't to me really. There a funky one with an M that's not mixo There's all kinds of crazy scales besides harmonic ... And even melodic. I really like the harmonic scale. I just try to sound fresh when I play and nothing does that like a different scale.

So relative minor of a major scale is just a mode of major scale. ( Cmajor, A minor)

See it’s like combinations that seem endless and I don’t even know all the notes to even start memorizing the modes. scales seem easier because there’s like a set pattern to each scale, no matter where you play it on the fretboard. But notes and modes are still confusing to me.

So let me get this straight. If you take the Locrian mode in the key of C and then change it into the Locrian scale in the key of C you end up with the Locrian mode in the key of Db.

Ive been playing guitar for 30 years. Mostly self taught. I write and record originals, so coming up with melodies and solos has been such a nightmare since I dont really know any theory or scales.. so Im trying to learn what I shouldve done years ago... I do feel ridiculous for asking this, but why does there seem to be an extra note in these scales?. Im seeing that most scales have 7 notes, as shown in the text for each of the scales...but when hes playing out the scale, theres always one extra note being played...Like... "D DORIAN - D E F G A B C" which has 7 notes, yet 8 were played. what the heck am I missing here?

How does the formula not contradict the mode? For instance, D Dorian is D E F G A B C D, but the formula says to flatten the 3rd and 7th, which would make it D E Fb G A B Cb D. Yet it is supposed to be the exact same notes as C major, so it shouldnt have any flats in it. Thanks for clarifying! I also dont get the point of modes because if you play D dorian (D E F G A B C D) to a C major chord progression, it doesnt sound any different.

I really don’t agree with this approach to teaching modes, because whilst it helps with understanding how to construct them, it doesn’t help from a musical standpoint. I find it easier to think of the modes as either fundamentally major or minor, with a small tweak (usually just one note) to give them a slightly different flavour. This way things still relate back to the same tonal centre.
