The chords in the background obviously dictate the tonality, so they are equally important when commanding different modal sounds. All this info is in expanded on in detail in Guitar Super System (bit.ly/G1SS50) and you can also look through the Music Theory playlist on my channel for more videos on major scale modes, plus tons of other tips and lessons.
This was amazing. I love your work, you've taught me quite a bit, just from these UA-cam videos.
Thank you Music is Win! :)
Are you using the same root note for every mode, or are you going through the same scale, and changing the root note based on the degree?
+Ambassador of Kekistan I think think that he is keeping the same root note.. may be wrong
Nice video Tyler especially the exotic phrygian mode with its mysterious flatted note..
Phrygian is not evil - just misunderstood lol
Phrygian Dominant is the evil one
slayer uses it also kindoff allot.
phrygian dominant is exotic
@@AlgyCuber then marty friedman uses it allot. slayer uses locrian allot, or they are off just by allot of times.
well, it also depends on the context of how we use each scale
only brave men use the locrian mode
I agree
Agreed

yeah right.. lol
You forgot Lilwaynean
im dead.. lmao
this is the best comment on youtube
E and D I think

The two note pattern you can play anywhere on the neck 🤣
Ugggh that mixolydian is so dirty, it's the most psychedelic-y sounding mode to me.
It's a favored mode of many Jam Bands, ranging from the Allmans (Ramblin Man) to the Dead (China Cat) to Phish (Divided Sky).
eeeh what? can't relate. the locrian sounds like weird stuff. Mixolydian sounds awesome
I like mixing mixolydian and dorian (only difference is minor and major 3rd)
+allscar osclex Dirty in a good way, like a dirty lick/riff, you've never heard that expression?
yes ofcourse! just not in the negative way x) I mean if you like jimmie hendrix you gotta love the mixo
This is fantastic. Lydian and Dorian are always my favorite go to. Over at my channel I have a video called "Guess that mode". It's a game to test your ear. You should make a game with this. It would be great to practice "hearing" the modes and see how well you know each mode.
Up
Ayyye I'm late but me too
Everyone asks “What is Locrian?”
But no one asks “How is Locrian?”
Aeolian speaks to me the most
but its so much more...
MostlyIrishCarGuy No, it's literally just the minor scale.
all tee ik i was kidding
MostlyIrishCarGuy WELL I WASN'T
all tee geez
Maybe i'm weird, but I enjoyed Locrian the most followed by Dorian. The fact that Locrian doesn't have a really strong resolution just makes it super cool that you were able to work around that well. Nice work.
Those transitions make me feel as if I'm watching a power point presentation.
Ionian=Delight
Dorian=Death
Phrygian=Despair
Lydian=Dream
Mixolydian=Destiny
Aeolian=Desire
Locrian=Destruction
This should have so many more views... Not just because it's a great demonstration of what the modes sound like, but it's SO GROOVY and SO TASTY :) Amazing job Tyler.
#LocrianLivesMatter i'm starting a revolution.
You damn snowflake! If you don't like the dorian and lydian mode then just leave the guitar and buy a freaking drum! Several musicians fought for our rights to play the major and the pentatonic scales, don't disrespect them! XD
@@gabopalacios2028 >:D make major great again
@@OriginalKingRichTv you can't make something great again if it's not great to begin with 🤔
This is awesome! Thanks Tyler! This gives me a better understanding of the scales, I'll definitely have to take your course.
Alex Bojorquez I thought that this lesson was superb, and has inspired me to persevere and master (or cope) with the Modes explained. Thank you.
You've no idea how many times I've impulsively rewatched this. I fucking love it ♪
Holy shit man, just when i needed it. I literally just started understanding the modes better and then boom, you come out with this video. The power of the universe.
Guitar student of 6 months here (I still suck but I'm working on it); this video helped out so much with my understanding of modes. I can look at diagrams all day, but getting the feel of them has been impossible 'til now, and hearing them back to back like this really cleared things up. I have a feeling I'll come back to this one. Thanks!
Had to sift through pages of instructional videos explaining what modes were before I was finally able to find one that just demonstrated them all in a given scale 😓 thank you for being the only one to post this Tyler ❤️
This is extremely helpful! Straight to the point. I'll start working on these asap Thank you so much!!
Thanks for all of the very helpful videos ! They have helped me a lot.
Damn this video is perfect for finding the best tonality for a solo or a song, absolutely fantastic job
Thank you so much! a comparative video of the modes. just what I needed
love your style, gear and personality
BRO THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH FOR THIS! I NEEDED A VIDEO LIKE THIS ! also you mask some awesome content.
Love it love it! It helps to understand the modes.. and it sounds beautiful too!
Genius, best video you've made in a long time
Really good video for composing a song with a certain mood in mind, cheers geeza
I am doing some research for my students making sure that my knowledge of the modes can be understood by them. This video is very well connected to feelings...which I am assuming my students have...I will show them this video for sure! Great Job! 3 years later...
Now I have something to show people why I am taking my time to really learn/know each Mode as well as I can. Thanks Tyler for this.
Good video (sorry for bad English)
Isaac Miller I think "nice" would looks better
No prob, dude.
kek
Isaac Miller H (sorry for bad English)
Lol still golden after few months
Nice job man, such good skillz
Holy shit, you gave me a whole new bunch of ideas for songs, thank you. BTW: I don't even know yet what modes actually are lol
Great playing, mate! 🍻
Best vid on how the modes sound like. period.
I really wasn't expecting a serious video like this haha. Pretty cool to see all the scales used over the same backing track though.
It's not the same backing track, he's playing different chords for each mode, they are just all in the same key center, G.
Ionan, aka the Major scale: Gmaj7 - Cmaj7
Dorian: Gm7 - Cdom7
Phrygian: Gm7 - Abmaj7
Lydian: G - A
Mixolydian: G - F - C - G
Aeolian, aka the Minor scale: Gm - F - Eb - F
Locrian: Gm7b5 - Gm7b9b5, he's not playing the 3rd in the latter chord, but it's implied by the backing track and his soloing
awesome to hear in simple video, thanks!
Hey! Do a video on the Spanish Mixolydian scale! Also known as the Klezmer scale or Gypsy scale. Start on the fifth scale degree of a harmonic minor scale. Sounds so dope!
thank you so much I was looking for this
U read my mind tyler thats what i have been looking for. thank u so much .Greetings from Nepal
It took me a half hour to find someone just playing them. Thank you!
Awesome. Great playing
You are awesome...
very cool lesson... rock on. thank you
VERY USEFUL ILLUSTRATION! THANKS MAN!
exactly what i needed thanks a lot man
Tylers Ive been following you for over an year and I love all your vids.. I just wanted to ask If you can make some videos on improvising I always get stuck playing the scale up n down ... maybe u can teach some of your licks.. I will really appreciate it.
keep shredding
\M/
phrygian, aeolian and myxolidian are my favs, they just sound way to awesome
Nice content! Keep it up!
This video blows my mind every time I watch it. Where would I even begin if I’m trying to learn these?
Nice video, Lydian is by far my favourite mode
What do system of a down use to get that Egyptian sound?
Aaron 102 Didn't they sometimes use the double harmonic scale ? it's used a lot in arabic music so that could be something close to Egyptian-sounding
God bless you, good people XD.
I'm gonna try that.
Double harmonic minor(gypsy scale, minor with a raised 7th and raised 4th), Phrygian dominant(raised 3rd, has that iconic Spanish/middle eastern jump), and you can also raise the 7th on the Phrygian dominant to make it extra wide(Byzantine scale)
can you name a specific song? because they use a few modes.
Tony Tran psycho is one of them
great video good licks and sound
Thank God for these no talk music vids
Why does it all sound like Satriani?
DurvalDavi Joe is fluent in all the modes
Not only is his phrasing super similar, his guitar tone is Joe`s tone too.Not sure Tyler will ever find his own voice but just always sound like a mini-me of Joe S.
Because Satriani often does the same thing in his songs as Tyler does here: switching between different modes with same tonal center. Playing in D lydian then D phrygian or D minor. Things like that
LYDIAN
Satrianian
Very awesome work
This video is awesome! A great reference!
dude you're a guitar hero, that was awesome
you're a legend!
after knowing all the scales I feel really I should work on application...I mean your interpretation of the scales is great
all beautiful
The Lydian bend at the beginning made me feel a Plini-like vibe 🤘🏼
Tyler, I love your videos man and I am very interested in your GUITAR SUPER SYSTEM. I only have an iPod to work with so my question is will still have access to all your content with just an iPod? Thanks in advance 😬
Love ur videos
Your very knowledge. Like the way you teach yourself then us.
Lydian and Mixolydian for me and they even sounded great transitioning into each other, dreamy and groovy is my style guess that's why I love Siamese Dream.
That was truly helpful
amazing bruh!
Hey man! so great!!! could you do a video to show how to create rythm that go well with each mode. It's my problem, I made basic minor or major progressions for each mode depending of the major/minor mode but I don't really know to be closer to the mode sound.
Love your videos man, you usually mic a cab to record or go DI?
I just really love your playing. It's sooo tasty. Mhm
I genuinely need to get to know more of the scales, at the moment I'm actually stuck in aeolion mode and can't seem to break away from it
I noticed the chords in the background added a lot to the feel also. What progression did you use? I'm sure you changed it to fit the mode of course but was there a certain progression you used?
+Alex C That's what he was asking about, he's actually talking about the progression that was used throughout.
Ionan, aka the Major scale: Gmaj7 - Cmaj7
Dorian: Gm7 - Cdom7
Phrygian: Gm7 - Abmaj7
Lydian: G - A
Mixolydian: G - F - C - G
Aeolian, aka the Minor scale: Gm - F - Eb - F
Locrian: Gm7b5 - Gm7b9b5, he's not playing the 3rd in the latter chord, but it's implied by the backing track and his soloing
The 7th chord extensions he used here and there are not important, but the difference between Major and Minor chords is really important, and what's bringing out the essence of each mode.
@@Melodeath00 Thanks for that!
@@Melodeath00 u r god
Cool. I know my modes but never really thought of 'em that way. Ionian and Phrygian seem to have some Latin vibe to 'em
This is fucking AWESOME!
How do you know if a certain chord progression will allow for tonality of different modes? Will any song in a major key be able to play the 1st 4th 5th and vice versa?
I want to know if there are minor scale modes too. Heard about something like that somewhere
The Aeolian melody is incredible
You and Slipknot are the only people who can make Locrian sound good
were you playing 5 chords or power chords in that backing track???? , Im thinkin probably so to be able to play to major and minor modes and have them sound good over the same progression. Just wondering? Thanks for all the good vids I still haven't checked out all your courses yet but did purchase them all when you did your ten dollar deal couldn't pass that up so I purchased all 5 :). I'm currently doing a couple other courses from some other peeps I purchased prior to yours, but I did check out your exotic scales and was really liking it, need to also get back to it. Thanks for the great vids I hope you continue to do well living the dream. Later brother man Mike S.
He's playing different chords under each mode, and none of them are powerchords.
Ionan, aka the Major scale: Gmaj7 - Cmaj7
Dorian: Gm7 - Cdom7
Phrygian: Gm7 - Abmaj7
Lydian: G - A
Mixolydian: G - F - C - G
Aeolian, aka the Minor scale: Gm - F - Eb - F
Locrian: Gm7b5 - Gm7b9b5, he's not playing the 3rd in the latter chord, but it's implied by the backing track and his soloing
The 7th extensions are not important, but the difference between Minor and Major are huge.
Sounds great dude! What key are you playing in?
Two questions- If a backtrack is in the key of C, can you play any of the modes on top of it? Secondly, if a back track is in the key of C, and there’s a diffeeent chord in that chord progression, can you still play those same modes on top? Hope this makes sense!
Tyler I just wanna ask.... how on earth did you manage to learn to play all of these modes? I may be able to memorise the major scale across the fingerboard, but I feel like I'll never be able to seamlessly know where the root notes/perfect fifths/other important notes are if I change modes, is it just experience? I feel like I'm getting nowhere with my practise of modes.... hope you see this!
What artist do you suggest to get more into that jazz feeling and taste in music? Ive played rock and metal ever sense I started guitar and wanna try something new.
I'm interested in purchasing your courses but I have a couple questions where can I ask them? My major concern is learning how to READ music since I barely have time I don't get to enjoy the patience
You actually used Locrian really nicely 👍
fuck you're slayin it
i wonder if i get a hold with the backing track?
Hey tyler, what backing tracks do you use for this video?
wow someone made locrian sound good!
mixolydian is my favourite mode,
So which one do you like best?)
I'm curious how to use specifically Locrian mode to create music?
It is used so rarely that I'm wondering what is the application of this mode.
I am working on that because it can't be there for just being there right
If you arppegiate the Diminished 1, the major VII and then the VI and back to the dim 1, you can form an interesting soundscape- especially if you keep the root of the locrian scale as the base note of the VII and the VI
So is the mode and the "sound" decided by the note you play the most? Ex: a is the sixth of c major so that would make it aeolian as long as I play c major built around the sixth
a combination of Lydian and Aeolian is my favorite
i feel right
I love your video
wish I could like more than once
Aeolian, Dorian, phrygian are minor modes
He was saying major in the other definition sense.
Yeah but these are all modes of the major scale regardless. All the patterns are exactly the same but you are just emphasizing different notes
You should totally do a minor version of this! :D
are all of these modes played in the same key or different keys?
