PHRYGIAN - Understanding and Using the Third Mode of Major [MODAL MUSIC THEORY]

[@SignalsMusicStudio]

Can't believe I forgot- The main riff from Harvester of Sorrow (Metallica) is pure Phrygian, and is also one of the most gruesomely evil riffs I have ever heard \m/

[@ofirstroh]

In movies I have to mention: The mob song from Beauty and the beast and Sally's song from the nightmare before christmas

[@LevitatingCups]

I dont understand, harvester of sorrow is pretty positive/hopeful sounding, i guess it just depends on your outlook in life.

[@delarkaBCN]

Jake. I would love too say that you have rocked my world. But you completely fucking rocked it. I have been playing for 12 years now. And i have studied both jazz technique and alot of different forms of composition along side alot of different highly competent musiscians. But you just have the secret sauce of teaching down. I love tuning into your videos even though some of the concepts are things i have worked with for yeras. Cause you just have a incredible innovative way of looking and explaining. Job well done, keep rocking and hopefully let some of the kind words inspire you. Greetings from Denmark

[@EbeJay1]

I really relate to this - I studied playing piano for a few years, took some guitar lessons for a few years and played bass in a band. It feels like I know a little of everything or sometimes that I don't know anything.

[@EclecticEssentric]

Thank you Jake, and your supporters. I found Phrygian into Lydian to be a fun "contrasty" sound to practice both scales with, (Like Em into F in C Major). You've certainly heard it before.

[@sunnymittal1906]

I have to say that your musical references make me love your videos that much more...in the handful I've watched, you've referenced the beach boys, metallica, dream theater, missy elliot, some motown artists...definitely a sign of a great musician which you certainly are. Thanks for all the free videos!

[@tlholohelomakatu517]

I just came here because a podcast I'm listening mentioned the phyrigian scale and I wanted to understand what they meant by it because they inferred that this scale is often used to add mysticism or sensuality to a song. Now I'm completely sold on your content - I don't even know music theory one bit!

[@EdokLock]

This mode is not utilized to the most in the western music from what I heared. If you listen to Arabic music, Turkish you will see the full emotion that comes from this mode. You emphasized the dark park of it, but it has a Huge romantic feeling its just that i dont see it being utilized.

[@FernieCanto]

People in the West don't use it that much *exactly* because the teaching of music has become dogmatic, rigid and soulless. "There's nothing happy in this scale at all", he says, completely oblivious to the fact that his playing in Phrygian in this video sound completely goofy and hilarious. Phrygian can be so passionate and full of love and heat... Nah! It only serves for invoking demons!

[@oneeyemonster3262]

i used the phrygian instead of phrygian dominant in spanish guitar plenty, It's sexy as hell.lol I also use it in ADAGAD tuning. There's nothing scary about it. It;s chanting/dreamy...celtic/irish It's easy.....Play the middle A, D, G as if it's in Bb MAJOR or Gmin = D phrygian The three outside three strings as if it;s still in standard tuning as E Phygian You can even play the Maj3 while you play the b3.... Nothing scary about it. Play the D Major or D min diad. then reach over to play the b3 or b2 on the low D string If you hook a finger on the third fret....5th string,,,that's the b7, now. The (N6)...lets say I was in A minor.... I can simply play Harmonic min b2 ....modulate into D Minor/FMajor It'll be A phrygian ish or you can modulate to Cmin....Bb = Mix ish = G Phrygain ish. or to G min/ Bb Major.

[@skyzenskyluke5880]

Totally agree, people who were train in western countries couldn't develop the ear or the style for playing this mode correctly, here in Africa it is widely used and doesn t sound Dark at all but passionate... even dreamy sometimes

[@fercampos4161]

Such a great teacher, I dont play as much as I used to, the last few years of playing, were at a southern Baptist church with a country flare, not too much spice going on there, but it was fun. Wouldn't have too much use for phrygian, but I watch all the way thru all of these videos cause I can enjoy someone explaining something well, having a clear idea of the subject and how it's going to be layed out. Great teachers are very rare, they're gems really, everyone remembers that ONE teacher who finally got thru to them, made an impact with their gift, and this is soaked in that vibe. It's awesome to watch.

[@PhilMyu]

Those lessons are unbelievably helpful for someone like me that tends to try to understand too many elements of music theory at the same time and gets confused. You are actually the first person I saw that mentioned that "no full song is in Phrygian". I assumed that - similar to a key - songwriters would simply devote full songs to a mode. This really gives me (a newb) a new perspective on modes/scales, that I didn't have before! The same applies to your advice to not "stray away too far" from the tonic to keep that feel of that mode. It's so simple, but you're the first one that used that advice for the songwriting in modes.

[@muhammadrezahaghiri]

Happy Birthday in Phrygian just sounded like most of modern-day Iranian pop music! Nice :)

[@jonschmidt4686]

the way you casually create these great compositions is an inspiration. Thank you for the continued tutelage

[@zacharygh]

For your inevitable phrygian dominant video, the organ solo for "Matilda Mother" by Pink Floyd is in F# phrygian dominant. Also, if you do a video on double harmonic major (phrygian dominant with #7), make sure to include "Misirlou" (traditional eastern Mediterranean song popularized by Dick Dale) and "Killing and Arab" (The Cure). It's such an amazing scale, but very difficult to use harmonically.

[@maziarfayaz]

Phrygian scale is extensively used in persian pop music. It doesn’t have to sound spooky. If youd like listen to hayedeh’s saghi or googoosh’s makhloogh

[@Kishan2295]

Hey Jake! Love from India. I am trained in South Indian Carnatic Classical music. We have a pretty neat system for scales (which we define as 'Raga' (pronounced 'Raaga')) called the Melakarta Ragas. It's a very interesting concept of enumerating scales. It's been fun associating these modes to Ragas in our system. So, your Phrygian mode becomes the 'Hanumathodi' or just 'Thodi' Raaga in Carnatic music. Do check them out. It has a bit of math, so you'll love it :)

[@Okla_Soft]

“Uncalm” by 311 is in Gflat in this scale the main riff goes “Gb Ab A B E B C B E B E” I always get a deserty Egyptian mysterious nighttime kind of vibe. Thank you for making these vids you have been such an inspiration to me for creating new music.

Your observations to use the 2nd & 7th to help keep the tonic obvious is the same approach I developed after trying to play in this key for years. Everytime I would stray away from that root, the music would start to feel like it had a different home. Great observation!

I'm really fond of the smart didactic way you teach. As a plus: what you call a "Phrygian Dominant" also has a name in Spain: the "Frigio Flamenco". I discovered that if you play it with a major 7th, it adds still more of that exotic flavour. I'm eager to watch a video about locrian, as no one has ever succesfully address it in that didactic way of yours. I'm sure you have the potential to be our teacher in that particular subject too. Cheers, Jake.

[@hacerclic1020]

Brian Eno has an entire album (one 58-minute track) in Phrygian mode. It's "Neroli: Thinking Music, Part IV". From the liner notes: "...the mode is the Phrygian, whose flattened second evokes the Moorish atmosphere alluded to in the title. In this mode the seventh is also flattened, and the combination of these unusual intervals creates a mysterious tonal ambiguity.This is further emphasized in "Neroli", because the root note of the mode is rarely played, whereas the fifth of the scale is prominent. Together, the blurred tonality and the lack of a distinct tonal center give the piece a hovering, weightless character."

Are modes of minor a thing? 🛸

[@TheNick1704]

z non The modes of natural minor are the same as major's modes, since Aeolian is a mode of Ionian. But both harmonic and melodic minor each have their own, distinctive modes.

[@znon5876]

🙏

[@MaggaraMarine]

Instead of calling them the "modes of the major scale" we could just call them the "diatonic modes". They are all modes of each other. The major scale is also a mode of the minor scale, the Mixolydian scale is also a mode of the Dorian scale, etc. Why today they are called the modes of the major scale is probably because everybody knows the major scale and it's treated as the basis of Western music. But originally, the modes were not modes of the major scale, because the major scale is actually a later invention than the modes. In the middle ages, Dorian was the first mode (today it's the "second mode"), and Ionian, Aeolian and Locrian weren't even part of the mode system back then - they were later additions (Ionian and Aeolian were added during the renaissance period and Locrian was an even later addition and is mostly a "theoretical mode" that's very rarely used in actual music). But yeah, as said above, melodic and harmonic minor have their own modes. Actually, any scale can have modes - if it's a unique scale, then it also has distinct modes. For example harmonic major is a scale that isn't a mode of any of the basic scales, so it has its own distinct modes. Same with the double harmonic scale (one of its modes is actually the "gypsy minor scale").

[@heylookitsn0ah]

To sum up what everyone else said, the minor scale is actually the sixth mode of the major scale, which would make it very confusing to start talking about modes of the minor scale, because essentially you'd be talking about modes of a mode lol

But good examples for songs whom have the phrygian characteristics are the songs "Boshret Kheir" by Al Jassmi, and "Lm3llem" by Saad Lamjarred. Here are the links. Im giving you the links, but I found them myself just by looking for arabic music on KZbin, to asnwer your question. www.google.nl/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjwu6GfgsHpAhVIy6QKHfx-DJIQyCkwAHoECBAQBQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DQUBvVTNRp4Q&usg=AOvVaw3iWanqfiO7nvVdQ01vQ86U www.google.nl/search?sxsrf=ALeKk03bDHOEAiQ-ar3b3kz_G92D4W-J8g:1589928775941&q=saad+lamjarred+lm3allem&stick=H4sIAAAAAAAAAONgFuLVT9c3NEw2zs4zM801U4Jw04xTzM2Tcyu1JIJSk_OLUjLz0p1zSotLUouCM1NSyxMrixexihcnJqYo5CTmZiUWFaUCWbnGiTk5qbk7WBkB7Xg0BVcAAAA&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjwu6GfgsHpAhVIy6QKHfx-DJIQxA0wB3oECAcQBQ&sxsrf=ALeKk03bDHOEAiQ-ar3b3kz_G92D4W-J8g:1589928775941

Arabic music is rather in harmonic minor.

Bonus points on that Cthulhu chant. Also, my music is generally dark and dirgey. Black Sabbath was a great user of the flat 2 on the tonic, for a little funeral flavor. Great vid!
