Ok, heres one for all you musicians. during the jam at the end of psygn, tim is using the fifth (dominant) mode of the harmonic minor scale. what is the name for this? although sometimes it sounds like he\'s using a natural 7th in there which would lead me to just call it an altered major scale (flat 2nd). but my real question is \'what is the name of the 5th mode of the harmonic minor?\'
edit: actually if anyone knows the names of all the modes of the harmonic minor scale, that would be cool. i use them but i dont know the names...
look at the big brain on Cobb, That\'s right the metric system.
nah dude, not a big brain at all... i learned this
**** once, and now for the life of me i cant remember any of the names...
All I know was the segue into Drunk Monk from this was THE
****!
cobb, ive been playing music for almost 2 years now.. was real excited when i figured out modes through regular major/minor scales.. it just occurred to me that harmonic minors have modes too..
**** i guess it just occurred to me that any scale has its own set of modes. umm, yeah, you can call me corky.... but hell yeah! im gonna go play.
building this scale on paper its really similar to Phrygian, but obviously with that harmonic leap from 2 to 3. ill go with Harmonic Phrygian, thats the best i can do.
dominant phrygian. just got off the phone with a trusted source. pretty darn close, gord. also called the "spanish gypsy" by many.
From what i downloaded, this song RULES! much better than good things, in my good-for-nothing opinion.
Mixolydian. Always Mixolydian.
nah man mixolydian is the 5th mode of the major scale.
it\'s all just bells and whistles to me GUY.
Mixolydian. Always Mixolydian.
i always call it Mix-Go-lydian. 1. b/c its on the G of Ionian C (helped me remember for my first test) 2. b/c when i first heard it i loved it, and told my teacher i had to Go home immediately and play. later realized how much it\'s used, way more than ionian, especially with the Dead.
im also a huge fan of dorian. one of my first grooves on the piano was in dorian and it\'s still requested for jams with my buddies. a teacher told me once that Santana lives on dorian.
dorian and mixo are very jer.
this forum gets geekier by the day..
paging Paul Ryan to thread #5264..
so glad my musically lingo as for playing is limted to the c-scale and do re me fa so la ti do (wait, theyre the same thing I think)
