The Octatonic scale-Alan Silvestri's secret technique!
To celebrate Back to the Future Day, let's roll back time and see how Alan Silvestri uses every part of the Octatonic and Symmetrical Diminished scales, with 8 notes forming a repeating pattern just full of strange properties, to create a Hollywood film score.
'3m2 Disintegrated Einstein' can be heard as Marty and Doc test out the DeLorean's time travel capabilities for the first time in Twin Pines Mall. Alan uses the chord families of the Diminished Scale to perfectly illustrate the drama of the scene. Practice your ear training and music theory with an assignment at the end.
