Take Notes guys! You can learn as soon as this man speaks.

Totally pinning this comment. Thank you so much!

@@richbrownbass No, thank you for making the bassist in this world better!

[@nateplaysbass]

Thank you! Your lessons are always helpful. I studied music in college and I've been playing for decades, but your teaching is accessible for everyone. I always find myself taking something new from your videos.

[@lordlomanagh5966]

Brilliant thank you ❤

[@nichalausrook2397]

I'll give this a try, thank you

[@peterfischer9993]

I’d certainly like a part 2. A little fuzzy on this tbh

[@IbrahimAbdurrahim]

Hey Rich man you your explanation of the modes made simple was amazing.

[@richbrownbass]

Thank you! I had to figure out how to learn those scales using simple methods that made sense to me. All the other explanations just left me confused. I'm so glad it helped! Thanks for watching.

[@chnapz]

Thanks Rich ! Every video on the modes you have made has been eye-opening and gives great ideas to practice. If you could do that part 2 demonstrating how you apply it Autumn Leaves, it would be great. You're the best !!

[@ChoiceSuffering]

bought and been playing 6string as my first bass and youve been getting me right! I appreciate the time to take to make these!

[@dtreadyy4205]

Definitely make part two please along with demonstrating playing autumn leaves please 🙏 it’ll help us understand

[@mamutcat]

Bass in hand, following along. Thank you for the lesson, Rich.

[@mamutcat]

Lydrian/phrygian and locrian/ionian are such close neighbours- you look at them as the same. Got it!

[@chunegrolas]

Great lesson. Thank you! 👍🏽

[@brandiethrift4140]

Thank you for the lesson, Mr Rich! 🎸

[@glennupton2990]

Thanks! Look forward to part 2.

[@aarongerard8128]

Thank you for this. I’ve been trying to understand how to incorporate the modes in my regular playing. I would love a follow up video to see real world examples. Thank you.

[@SeniorFeliz]

I love this. This is right up my alley. I love playing with the modes. They Make A guy like me song, half decent.😊 learning the molds also made me a better guitar player. I like to play guitar. I like to play the ood. I like to play bass. I even like to play Keys. I love harmony. And I especially love your solo video that you did a few years back, that it sounds kinda ambient, and it's also using the modes. I think Scott interviewed you once and you talked all about it.

[@refbassist]

Seen that don’t learn modes video in my feed, felt like reporting it as spam, it even beat the one I seen years ago telling stop playing open strings 😂 All the respect Rich 🔥

[@cognitiveburp]

Please make the video demonstration. Love your content.

[@Omarencarnacion1]

cool, thanks for the advice and the lesson

[@errolcampbell304]

God job as usual teacher 👏🏿

[@flapp-jck1226]

thank you Rich for creating this channel, for the past couple of days I’ve been watching and practicing your ideas from the metronome series, this channel is too good. timeless ❤️🙏🏿. God bless you

[@richbrownbass]

Thank you so very much!

[@HouseholdDog]

@@flapp-jck1226 Yes. He doesn't try to rush things which is great. You learn a lot about one thing, which I like.

[@unclemick-synths]

I think I get it but would like a part 2.

[@ezekielgskeen8607]

awesome lessons sir!

[@MarkHenry-co1wt]

Please do a part 2 it would help me please 🙏 thank you for the start it helps

[@SeniorFeliz]

By the way, I tried using autumn leaves in g and it's great. Because you're playing in first position, and you're using all the open strings, which is great.😊 open one more thing. Thanks for that pentatonic video I got a lot of mileage out of that. I'm starting to use the pentatonic again. Thank you. Thank you, thank you.

[@HouseholdDog]

Good to see the channel is growing. It's at a reasonably good size now.

[@zambotv8150]

The funkiest note on the planet's back!!!!! Youza Rich, Happy New Year buddy

[@larrylefebour9324]

wow… this has really shifted my thinking & understanding about approaching the modes in any scenario 🤯. I am really looking forward to pt.2 and will also try this out on Autumn Leaves since I’ve had the book open on that standard for a few weeks now getting more comfortable walking.

[@richbrownbass]

Thank you, brother. BTW, I haven't forgotten about you. Let's get together soon!

Waiting for next vedio sir

[@bassrumblings]

Looking forward to Part 2 and 3 of this video. :) I'm not sure what you mean about take a song and play it in different modes?!

[@charlieparker9852]

You'd need to show me thanks. 😎

[@ivanoroman3166]

Grazie di questa perla musicale,posso chiedere un video dove si spiega come fare a capire la linea di basso di una canzone. Thanks

[@richbrownbass]

Thank you very much, and yes!

[@lyndunagan4868]

I think I may be overthinking it… would the modes be equivalent to the extended arpeggios of the key? For example, in the key of C Major, would the I chord = C,E,G,B plus the extensions D,F,A = the Ionian mode? And the 7th degree of the scale would be B half diminished = B,D,F,A plus C,E,G to complete the Locrian mode? If a song is in D Dorian, would another way of communicating that be like, “This is a 2-5 I. C major”? Thank you for your lessons! I appreciate your time and energy (and patience!).

[@almendratlilkouatl]

of course buuut, it'd be better to think of the extensions as something not diatonic, even over a major diatonic song, a #4 over the Imaj chord would sound better than the P4, as well as in the diatonic minor chords the 13's have a lot of play, even over the V7 chord I like to use the #4 and or the #5 for spicyness, even the b9, so I would say extensions can be non diatonic

[@whatilearnttoday5295]

If a song is in D Dorian then it has absolute nothing to do with C Major. D is the root. You're playing a minor scale with a natural 6. C Major may be the scale used to generate D Dorian, but after that it has nothing to do with the tonality you are playing in.

[@petervanpuyvelde8959]

Saw that awful video too! Thx for the antidote!

@@petervanpuyvelde8959 We talking about the one from the New Zealand woman with the Scandinavian accent? I found her replies to be entirely toxic. Seems her viewers are exclusive people who tell her that she's the best ever.

Just gotta say, I mean write, that this (the link below) was beyond moving, my soul shifted, my spirit was lightened, and my joy for this instrument was greatly increased. kzbin.info/www/bejne/apfIeWxnqJp0r6csi=9XTr6AGnC6EjBucG

[@LennyG-TPFL]

Cannot you just simply say/think....if your in a C major key tune, and the two chord is played, your'e basically playing D dorian? The five chord is played so you're in G myxolydian? Go to the four and your're in F lydian....? The modes are confusing but it's really just playing the notes of the scale (C major) with the focus on whatever scale degree you're in.
