Surprised not to see mentioned how I use it : Playing Lydian Dom a tritone from the root of a dominant chord ( in say a 251 ) gives you the notes of the Altered Scale over that dom chord. Another way to think of the same situation is to play Lyd dom starting from a semitone above the root of the chord that the dominant chord is resolving *to* e.g. improvising over a 251 in C would be - play D min arp or scale - then on the G7 play Db Lyd Dom ( gives you G Altered Scale notes superimposed on the G7 chord) then play C maj arp, scale - or whatever to resolve.

This is fantastic! Incredible detail and easy to follow and understand. Thank you!

[@3teRnaLfr]

Nice i really enjoy watching your videos ! Thanks

[@blackcitadel37]

Could you make a video about how to practice scales, arpeggios, chords, etc the right way? These videos are wonderful. I just get confused how to practice these scales without feeling repetitive or just that endless "up-and-down" all the time. Thanks a lot for all this content. You're the best music channel I ever found

[@avatacron60]

Ok, ok...

[@Davidparry12]

I'm not done the fill video yet but this is so far the best reference material I've seen for a scale on KZbin ever. Thanks so much!

So well put and in-depth ! Thanks a lot !

Great interesting class, exploring aspects and aproaches from the lydian dominant scale.

[@rafa_guitar]

Another awesome video Rob! A pleasure to see you playing, for sure you are a great composer! This channel is so full of reference information.

[@QJamTracks]

Thanks Rafael!

[@TheZaneTeam]

Thank you. Well done

[@brianbergmusic5288]

Grateful for this lesson. There's something about this mode that I wish to capture. It's so close to the mixolydian b6 scale, but doesn't have that uplifting mystical sound to it. It sounds... cooler and even funky if a dominant strum is in the backing track. If it doesn't have that funk element, then it sounds strange, an odd-ball encounter in a whimsical adventure.

[@nuke97]

Excellent analysis, inspired to give this mode a run.

[@prsaikcanton3148]

The best explaination

[@vincentchen5341]

Super useful detailed and applicable material, keep it up

[@satchrules101]

Gold lesson!

Great channel. Thanks mate

[@dankers12]

This was really thorough and easy to understand. Thank you for the great lesson.

[@correametal]

Wow Rob you just made my day with this video! Excellent as always! Another tool for adding color to compositions! I liked all the examples but I especially loved the Metal one! I can't thank you enough for all that you do for us. Eternal thanks!

[@QJamTracks]

Sorry for my delayed reaction. I've been so busy lately. Thank you Jose!!! And have a nice new years eve :)

[@correametal]

@@QJamTracks No need to be sorry Rob. I totally understand that you are always busy to make these excellent videos for us, so thanks for taking from your short time available to so kindly answer our comments. Thank you Rob, and may you have a nice new years eve as well, stay safe!

Thanks for the lesson sir, subscribed.

[@RafaelSCalsaverini]

Great channel!!!

[@mikep7525]

Nice!

[@megashredderofkate]

this is a scale i learned about a long time ago, but i think the rules around When to use it were very confusing especially if you're not a jazz musician! very helpfull as always, and i hope to take this more seriously in my improvs from now on! i'd love it also if you did a video on ionian #5, that scale always makes my ears go 'oooh, what was that'! but again, i have not much reference material to go on!

[@nipu5840]

Thank you

[@cowabungabonzai]

I love this scale

[@echelonworks]

This is exactly what I've been looking for!!!

[@lawboss]

Enjoyed the video. As always, there's a lot to unpack.

[@QJamTracks]

Thank you Tom :)

[@shayne881]

Great lesson! You mentioned that to get the lydian dominant sound (chord4) you can play chord one over chord three with the pedal point of the root of chord.My question is : is this a formula that works with any chord? For example could I superimpose chord two and four with the pedal of chord five to get the mixolydian flat six etc... And does it work with all harmonized modes of any scale? Thanks

[@DavidPhillipsMusic]

Lydian Dominant also works well on backdoor Dominants

[@bernadusrikosantosa2002]

Great lesson, superb... But I dont get it why it cannot be used over V7-I progression (resolved dominant)...

[@zorandjipanov6492]

But wait, what do you mean “can’t play if it resolves to the one” ? If I am playing a f minor blues and suddenly go to the V/iv play a Lydian dominant lick over the F9 then go to the Bb min9 and just continue to play the F minor blues scale, how is that not going to work ? To me it sounds like it dose indeed work, specially if I add the blue note as a passing tone between F Lydia dominant and Bb minor 9… please explain

[@PedroSilvaMusic]

Fantastic

[@adrianaslund8605]

Could you construct a tone with overtones in another mode on say a synthesizer? I wonder what that would sound like?

[@danaeverhart6487]

Merry Christmas My Friend!

[@QJamTracks]

I'm a bit late with my answer Dana. Best wished for you too and for later on: a happy new year!

[@johnstrange1382]

Charles Ives used to imploy this scale.

TOP 🔥🔥

Mode 4 of melodic minor if I’m not Mistaken

[@arsenmingo62]

Lydian dominant... Of course he is using the Steve Vai signature!

[@MsDavo123]

i wonder if i have thrash y phrygian dominant riff can i solo with this scale over it?🤭

[@Meshuggapeth]

Short answer is sure. Long answer is it depends how much dissonance you want at any given time. If you’re doing a modal riff in Phrygian dominant, go ahead and use Lydian dominant too but be mindful of the natural 2 clashing with the minor 2 and the sharp 4 clashing with the perfect fourth

[@MsDavo123]

@@Meshuggapeth actually i shall experiment and see how it goes kind of tired of Harmonic minor but such a lovely scale hahahah

[@Meshuggapeth]

@@MsDavo123 my favorite mode of harmonic minor is Dorian #4

[@MsDavo123]

@@Meshuggapeth nothing beats phrygian dominant but shall experiment with your favourite ad well
