You are indeed extraordinary bassist, thanks for this content, i needed this becouse guitarist from my band is also mastering melodic minor scale. Subbed!
Fantastic Sasha ! I like your take on this; clear and concise, and practical. There definitely is something to the melodic minor and all of its degrees, and I think that it's related to the hybrid character of both the half-whole dim scale and the whole tone scale. To me the fun starts when the sound is somewhat familiarized and you can start playing around with phrasing etc. Thank you ! And that tone is great man !
Hey Bro! Thank you so much! I totally agree! When it all melts together while PLAYING (not PRACTICING), this is where the magic happens! And yeah, I like that tone of the #humanbase too! 😊And, I'd love to see and hear more of your playing on RU-vid! You are such a great player man! 💚
Wow! Great content Sascha but a bit above my head. I really need to take a few steps back. How would you suggest I start this melodic minor journey. Thank you brother!
Hey Brother! Thank you. Let me say: Progression through reduction. I am giving lots of examples in this video. Pick out one as a start to focus on and expand, with low Tempo. My personal Tip: Take the 2 - 5 - 1 focusing on the 5 (V alt 7). since there are a lot 2 - 5- 1 out there. Maybe my new Gwizdala Video can help you with that. Have fun on your journey. :-)
Great lesson brother sounds fantastic. I look at Melodic Minor slightly different to you based on John Stowell’s and Matt Garrison’s approach. Which gives a similar sound but the starting points and the vibe of the sound is more major sounding.
Thank you Laurence! 😊Thats cool! Yeah, this Video trys to take one small point of view out of dozens. Still so much more to talk about concerning Melodic Minor. Like your point of view too. 😊
Hey my friend. With this video I already showed you. You can apply these scales and methods 'easy' on ',All the things' since it is full of 2-5-1's, tonics and dominants. Start with deciding for one scale like for example MM1 over every 2-5-1. Use the parallel minors. These are in the following order: Fm, Am, Cm, Em, Em, Fm
@@SaschaOnBass Fm7,Bbm7,Eb7,Abmaj7 this is a first 4 bar in All the things I use Fm7=MM1 or MM7 Bbm7=MM1 or MM7 Eb7=Eb Mixolydian 11# or Bbm melodic MM1 or Eb alt MM7 Abmaj7=Ab ion ?
Oh Man... Im still exploring it. I like the sound of altered in general. Right now I use it often trying to incorporate it. But there will come something else then... So much sounds there are. Ten Liefetimes to explore...
great lesson! would also be useful to have the 3 different degrees on a graph/tab (with the root in different colour) to help us visualise them on the fretboard. cheers! edit: also the ⚡Who is the Sea Shepherd ? Watch this: link doesnt work!
so if you call MM1, MM2 etc to the modes of the melodic minor I guess you call ''Mayor scale 2'' to the dorian mode and ''mayor scale 3'' for the phrigian.... Also, some modes of the melodic minor are not minor..so why would someone call mm1, mm2, mm3 to different modes.. ?.
Hi Esteban, it’s not common to call the degrees of the major scale “major scale 1”, “major scale 2” etc. The common terms are “ 1st major degree 1”, 2nd major degree” etc. But even if so, one who knows the major degrees would know what is meant with a term like “Major scale 2”, probably. The Numbers in harmony and melody - among other things - help to orientate and they are abbreviations/synonyms for easier communication.
