MODAL INTERCHANGE Explained Crystal Clear - Next Level Chord Progressions
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 кві 2020
- What is modal interchange? And what is modal mixture? In this crystal clear guitar tutorial you will learn all about Modal Interchange, a technique for composing awesome and surprising chord progressions. Take you songs to the next level! Everything is explained with top notch graphics and tablature on screen. You will learn to use this technique to create chord progressions with borrowed chords from a parallel key or mode. Think of the dorian, phrygian, lydian, mixolydian and Locrian mode. This technique of mixing tonalities is used in modern Jazz, but is also a great asset for rock guitar players and suitable for other styles of guitar soloing. I show you why and when to use a certain chord to get a certain effect. Never a boring progression again. You also learn how to improvise over modal mixtures.

An absolutely fabulous lesson here my friend. You are finally making tons of sense out of the jumble my jazz lessons made in my premature understanding. Now, years later, this is just what I needed. I can never thank you enough. You are a master teacher and player! Outstanding. I am so grateful for your generosity. Bless you, bless you, bless you.
Thank you!

Excellent, thank you. great video..
"Superimposing Pentatonic Scales" was an amazing lesson! This is the perfect follow up! Thank you!
Very helpful! Thank you.
Thanks Tom!
i love your way to teach, thank you
I have no doubt that this channel will grow exponentially as musicians come across it. Just one video was so incredibly helpful to me that it prompted further investigation. I was pleasantly impressed by the videos I found in your archives. Impressed enough to warrant promotion. I've already turned a few friends on to your instructional videos and I'll be passing this one on via social media as well. I thank you for the work you're doing. You're a gifted teacher.
By the way, I love the disco ball in the background. Lol
Thank you Sean! I'll appreciate this very much!
Your tutorials are amazing and ground braking for ordinary guitarists and not only.
Thank you
The best modal interchange explanation on UA-cam! Thank you so much!
Thanks!
Remarkable didactic effort. Direct applications to all genres. Thank you so much!!!
great stuff, thank you!
This channel is what I have been looking for for many years before! Thanks for yor amazing work!
One of the best videos I've seen on modal interchange with great examples. Thank you so much!
Love how voice leading is so smooth in modal interchange progressions. This lesson is awesome!
This was great! Subscribed!
Thanks Jesse!
your channel is pure gold, thank you very much
Best channel for understanding musical harmonies, keep it on!
Where have you been all this time!? Your videos are just amazing
Great lesson!
Thank you
Excelente ! gracias por compartir !
Thanks for the great video. Your explanation is crystal clear and I love how you provide many examples of how modal interchange works in practice and little gems like how the transition between the modes can happen within the melodic line. The standard notation plus guitar tab plus chord shapes alongside the explanations helps to understand this concept much more easily. Can see a lot of work went into this and other videos. Thanks again.
Great lesson as always! That's great that you give us the crucial theory, but also backing tracks to bring it to life
Thanks Jacob!
again...the best lesson on the subject. You make it easy.
Unlike U.S. teachers whom confuse and depress students all the way!!!Greetings and long happy life.
Thank you. Such a nice, clear and easy introduction to such an important topic. Most myths and legends in music come from these concepts. So many songs fit under this umbrella. I love it.
I am so glad I stumbled upon your channel. Very well done and explained. Thank you!
Thanks Aziz!!
Wooow. Just impressed
Nice! Thank you!
Thanks Geatan!!
Great video man, very well explained - I liked all the examples showing how it sounds
Thanks Stefan!
Your channel is Great 👏👏👏
Grateful maestro
Fantastic as always! This to me is what it's all about. I'm definitely a new patron!
That would be wonderful Realpool! Thanks!
Great content ...
Your videos are tremendous!
I'm a relatively new piano player, been learning 18 months, started late in life at 53.....your content is really helping me understand music in a deeper way. I'm not really interested in learning tons of songs but more interested in expressing myself through playing what I feel and writing my own tunes. This takes a lot of learning to understand how to play the melodies/harmonies and modes are of course an important part of that. Your explanations are so easy to understand. Thank you very much for all the amazing content!! You should have many more subscribers, your channel is a real gem :)
I'll keep listening again and again extremely helpful
Nice to hear!!
This guy's legit....
Thank you.
Thanks Pedro
Thank you so much man love from india ❤️❤️❤️🤘🤘🤘

Great lesson and your graphics are the best. I'll be joining your Patreon page.
Thank you MellowJim! Means a lot to me!
This is so cool stuff - thank you so much!!!
Thanks!
Very informative video for the begginner/intermediate player, not even one minute is wasted, this is very clearly explained and with examples. Such videos make YT a great platform!!
this is the most practical explanation of modal interchange Ive found on here. Thanks so much for the theory and examples played to show EXACTLY how it works. :)
Thanks Steven! I try to make the subjects as clear as possible.
Such a great lesson! Was a perfect fit for my level of understanding . I never felt lost thank goodness like I do so many times endeavoring to understand this particular subject. Clear and straight forward info bringing me to a higher level. I am a piano player who has searched for a deeper understanding of chord progressions. Thanks for giving specific directions to apply and experiment. Also thank you for giving me good direction to take what I’ve learned here and do something with it! Infinite gratitude ...
Superb! You're a great teacher as well as a musician. Could you make a video on Modal Modulation, please?
Thank you so much sir ❤️
Enormous thanks! At some point you wanna understand the modern music & u just filled the gaps! 👍
kudos!!! Terrific lesson! Thank you man!! my band-in-the-box recovered the joy
Thanks Eduardo! And thanks for subscribing!
Once again you have nailed it, this has opened a door that
i never knew existed in music theory, THANK YOU for sharing your understanding and instructional gift.
Thanks for your your kind words!
Wow, great video. I especially like that you explain why these substitutions work.
Also, I am amazed by the sound you get out of those drawers behind you 😉.
Hahaha. Yes amazing drawers!
Greetings from Alabama!
I’ve just discovered your UA-cam lessons. What fantastic content!! You are one of the best communicators on the entire internet. Thank you so much!
Thanks for your kind words!
Man that's crazy! It's like a weird mixture between Math and Music, counting and creativity. Thank you very much for the vid!
I like the little lesson on voice leading snuck in there
Best lesson ever. Thanks.
Thanks Mike!!
Thanks!
Very interesting, like pulling the curtains back on a big set of windows on a bright and sunny morning and letting it all stream in. thank you :)
Zeer goed uitgelegd, dank u wel!
Dank je Marian! :)
You are really an amazing and attractive teacher for guitar training. Hats off to your talent. I like your channel and very frequently keep on watching repeatedly. May the Almighty bless you a very long life to serve the humanity. I had an intention to talk with you personally as your delivery is highly spontaneous and inspiring as well.
What a wonderful tutorial. Although I'm already acquainted with model interchange, I picked up a few nuggets that I wasn't clear on previously. Further, this was one of those videos that I didn't want to end... I was enjoying it so much. Thanks!
So nice to hear Tony!
Ur a genius, and i cant find the best words to express how to thank u. I love all ur lessons, God Bless U always, long life and more Power!
great example of the flat mediant bIII is a Sting song "Seven Days" in the verse, because he sings a Lydian scale over this chord progression I-bIII-bVII
Crystal clear indeed! Thank you very much for the excellent content you always provide to us your subscribers, and I hope you'll be safe in this global chaos we are going through. Greetings from Puerto Rico!!!
Hi there Jose :) Thanks for your nice comment! We are safe for now. You take care Jose and stay healthy!
@@QJamTracks Rob you just got yourself a new patron! It is impossible not to support and being able to receive the best information and instruction from simply the best of the best! Thanks!
Found your channel by accident and I'm so glad I did!!! An excellent explanation of the subject and your music examples have re-ignited my inspiration. Thank you! Really like the structure in disseminating the the ins & outs of Modal Interchange. YOU'RE A GREAT TEACHER!
Thanks Jess!
Another great lesson Rob. I’ve seen other modal interchange lessons showing up lately but this is by far the best. A step by step-by-step explanation that is unparalleled.
Thanks!!
Yes! I often get lost on this topic, but this lesson and teaching approach really helped!
Thank you
Thank you for watching Michael!
9:26 --> Loved this progression.
Really tasteful :-)
And cool that you showed how to set it up.
.
13:17 - > There is no third there, so it actually is not a G11
Without the third, the 11 becomes a 4, so: Gsus4/6 :-)
.
Love these video's
Thumbs up + subscribed.
I just discovered your channel. Stunning and clear explanations. The best video on modal interchange because you explain not only 'How it Works' but also 'Why it works. Other 'Modal Interchange' videos do not explain the 'Why it works' part. Is there a follow-up course to this as you explained at the end of this video? You mentioned a follow-up in regards to using the Harmonic minor and Melodic minor scales for modal interchange. I cannot locate this aforementioned video. Thank you kindly.
Hi ElectricWally. Thanks for you nice comment! I did make a video about modal interchange: ua-cam.com/video/9LxJPaqh51o/v-deo.html
Maybe you can find here what you're looking for. I will do a video about the two scales in detail (including the modal interchange possibilities) on later moment in time...
Muito bem. Claro como um cristal.
This is an absolute game changing video for me. I wish i‘d understand this stuff 20 years ago! Thanks for explaining and putting so much effort in the additional graphics - super helpful! You are a star! Keep on teaching!
Thanks!! Great that the video helps you out :)
Fm also exists in harmonic major.
Absolutely marvelous. I got it ALL.
Actually theres one tiny little thing that bugged me. In Isnt She Lovely, I didnt understand how the song is in E major and not in C#m. In that case I didnt figured out how to define it.
Another great video. Rob, it would be so great to have you expand your lessons to a comprehensive multi chapter course with backing tracks, tabs, videos in progressive lesson plans starting with the basics and working on up. I would certainly pay for such an expanded course. While the videos are fantastic, I would love to have a more structured course with "lesson plans", etc. Just a suggestion. For instance Modes combined with Triads and Scales. Yes, I know about your ebooks, and have bought several, but I would like it to be a more structured package.
I understand and it's a good point. It's just that my time is sparse. But I'm thinking about it for a while now.
Thank you so much for the video.I was wondering if you could show us some Chord building tutorials e.g from triad to extended chords b5 # etc.Thank you Sir
That's a good idea and I already thought of this once. Thanks Sardar!
This a great video! I'm so excited to experiment with substitutions, and now a lot of chord progressions I've seen in songs are starting to make more sense. I have a question about the Key in bars 5-8 of the Polly-Nirvana example - you say it's in D. Is that mixolydian? My first inclination was to consider it in the key of G, in which case the Bb substitution would be the bIII from Gminor. Is it just a different point of view or is there a musical reason why it should be viewed as key of D?
Yes that's true. It's a matter of opinion realy. You could say the whole song is in Em an Bb is borrowed from let's say the locrian mode or you could say there's a modulation to D major where Bb is borrowed from D minor. I would go for the second option, but it's arbitrary :)
@@QJamTracks but what then about that C chord? which doesn't belong to D major.
you remind me of a friend.
That's a good thing right?
