This is very cool! As always, you really got me thinking here. I am already considering how I can apply this concept in different areas, particularly in improvisation, soloing over changes. Thanks again for getting my wheels turning! Have a great week.🙂🙏🙏🙏
Indeed a cool trick! I wonder this concept could be applied to all the other greek modes by starting with their different notes then turning back to natural major/minor.
Absolutely, my friend! You could start your melody in any of the minor modes (Dorian, Phrygian, Locrian) then switch to the natural minor scale for the second half of you melody. Or you could start in any of the major modes (Lydian, Mixolydian) then switch to the major scale. Thanks for stopping by and connecting, and we hope to see you back here in the comments on the next video! Ray :)
@@HackMusicTheory Bonus points since “The Snozzberrie’s taste like snozzberrie’s!” Haha. Thanks again for sharing this music theory hack! Nifty stuff for sure. ❤️
Guys, as one of your apprentices, I’m always interested to hear these little snippets. I’m having fun listening to the opening theme of the second and third series of Prime show Jack Ryan. I keep trying to sing it and getting hung up in the second half of the melody. There is one note there that trips me up every time. What’s your analysis?
Hmm, I'd really want to see some hack from some of Kikuo(きくお) songs. They are so different and crazy that they really catches and gives me a goosebumps and uneasiness. Well, maybe it's not your field but.
Thank you for the video and for the cool knowledge-sharing in general! I will be super-specific in wishing to analyze artists - specific songs and specific parts: 🎶Yann Tiersen - La valse d'Amélie (especially first notes are so cool) 🎶In Flames - Gyroscope (riff, melodies between verses and choruses) 🎶Opeth - The Night And The Silent Water (especially guitar/-s motif/-s in the first verse) 🎶Opeth - To Bid You Farewell (melody in the first 2 minutes, bass) 🎶🙂 Ray Harmony - We Are (ft. Serj Tankian, Ihsahn, Devin Townsend) (chorus melody, and why chorus short guitar motifs at the end of each phrase sound cool?) Mentioned parts above I wrote as an example that first come to mind but usually, there are more favorite sections in each song. Special wish #1 - analysis of the album: 🎶💽Opeth - Morningrise (not a fan of the lyrics but the musical part is the masterpiece in my opinion from different angles including nice bass sections) Special wish #2 - analysis of the album (actually it is a game): 🎶💽1NSANE (Would like to understand - why most of the album sounds so great. My favorite compositions: Stone, Vega, Force, Ball, and Main Menu 🙂)
Hi again, I'm honestly finding your videos to be some of the best tutorials I've ever come across, I'm curious, have you got a video on How to write odd time sigs in the grid in reaper? I seen the djent riff one and it was great, but Im wondering how I go about setting the grid to say, 15/8? Or do I just write in a 4/4 grid and chop off what I don't need, if that makes sense, I've been writing guitar riffs in the grid first then sending them to guitar Pro to tab them out lol, tonnes of fun, and I'm writing riffs I'd never have thought about on guitar, thanks.
Andrei my friend, good to see you, as always! Hope this finds you well. Regarding the major 6th. There's a minor (root) chord playing underneath, so the major 6th in the melody is instantly recognizable, and that's why it stands out. Ray :)
