A new way to look at MODES - jazz theory tutorial 

LIMDAPL, nice pneumonic device to find those major scales, just added to my circle of fifths, very easy to remember and useful, thanks! One a slightly related side note, as heard in Hey Joe, the circle of fifths also adds an accidental if you move in the other direction, i.e. each fifth, but changing key each time. It helped me realize that it's nice to modulate as you improvise over the song, instead of playing that E minor blues and major pentatonic the whole time.

@@nebula0697 Glad that helps. For my mind its the easiest way to spot play a mode if someone asks... Play Bb Mixolydian mode if might be easier to sort out in your head using LIMDAPL. Start with Bb then reference the mnemonic in your head to know that is Eb major starting on Bb. Assuming you know your Circle of 4ths by heart. Alway start the mnemonic at the "ionian = I" verses L for lydian. Lydian is on ramp to the Ionian :)

@@winddealer1 Yes, I'm starting using it as of today :-). I dabble in both guitar and piano so I can pictures the fourths or fifths in my head pretty quickly. Theory is so great because I started without it and sort of discovered the diatonic system by just playing around on the piano but then quickly realized most songs didn't adhere strictly to it and when I wrote progressions I certainly didn't. So to then find the "rules" that govern breaking the confines of the diatonic system is just awesome. Maybe a bit off topic, but it's another thing that wonderful circle is good for.

@@nebula0697 Interesting how the Guitar community seems to embrace the Circle of 4ths practice workflows and the Keyboard community seems to be more Circle of 5ths oriented. It is simply perspective after all, but from a Chord Progression perspective it seems more "natural" to follow the 4ths circle for me. To each their own, no right or wrong way, after all it is an art and a matter of what resonates with your "self".

Been there... Have The👕 etc.

I mean high sense of humor

My pleasure 😊

Thanks for great videos.

Absolutely! no offense to Rick Beato...

@@TonyWinston he tries but I find whiteboard stuff makes sense intellectually but not musically. It's like the difference between maths and engineering.

Maybe not a subject that interests you personally? It helped a lot of people, everyone else seem very happy, which seems to indicate that it is in fact a great video. You should consider that not everyone is at the same level and that we all have our own ways of learning. Maybe it's not advanced enough for you, or maybe it is beyond your current level, which also often gives the impression that something is useless.
