    This is a very impressive video. Every time you put out a new one, it makes me wish that Chris Parks had this good of an editor to put in the tabs, graphics, transitions, etc.
    Would you mind doing a video like this in the future about the 6th on the 5th brothers and sisters? By that, I mean the min6 chords built from the ii and biii diminished 7th chords? Cheers, and thanks again!

    Nice to see someone bring up the relationship with the home key, not just stop at "lower each note of a diminished chord by a half step." Both are important parts of the whole concept. Db7 tonicizes and Ab major 6 or Ab major 7, which is the sixth chord in C minor. I thought that was relevant, given the description of the backdoor dominant.

There'll be somewhere between 30-40 phrases for ii-V and other progressions complete with fingering and picking suggestions. Possibly some analysis of a few selected phrases and some instructions on how to incorporate them into your own language. Stay tuned. Hope to have that up for sale before year's end.

    If the purpose of adding the extra notes is to make it easier to land chord tones on strong beats, why, then, would this be applied only to descending scales? The purpose of the added notes serve their purpose in both directions, even when reversing direction at any point.

    • @dsg_studio

      @@dsg_studio
      I went back to the previous video and did not find anything addressing the exclusive use of descending scales. You did state, emphatically, that the scales were descending, without any explanation.

    • @dsg_studio
      @dsg_studio  7 місяців тому

      @ronaskew huh, I thought I went more in depth. Mainly it's because under this system when you ascend a scale only to the 7th all the chord tones already land on the beat. If you were to do this same method ascending you'd need different "rules " because the math doesn't work out the same. In that case, Barry's chromatic scale concept works better for ascending lines since you can put half steps anywhere that system. The other thing is that doing this descending only teaches rhythm and pulse that coincides with the "falling" nature of V-I cadences. Hope that helps. I'll have to remember to address this in detail in next week's video 👍

    • @ronaskew
      @ronaskew 7 місяців тому

      There would have to be a few more rules, but the logic would be the same or similar to the descending rules.
      The first 1/2 step rule establishes a baseline guaranteeing 3 things, asc or desc, (1) the ability to automate the placement of chord tones on a strong beat and (2) a passing tone between all chord tones while (3) building in more opportunities for generating triplet patterns thru the chord and (4) the uniform placement of passing tones builds in upper and lower neighbors that can encapsulate chord tones or approaches from above or below. The rule that allows adding 2 more chromatic note accomplishes 2 things; when used (1) establishes the 9th as an additional chord tone and (2) extends the above mention triplet and encapsulation rights to the 9th while (3) extending the line.
      The only problem I see with rules for the ascending scale are the rule disallowing even the use of 1 chromatic passing tone when the starting strong beat note that enables a rule is a 2d or 4th and does not always work ascending.

    • @dsg_studio
      @dsg_studio  7 місяців тому

      @ronaskew this is all correct but I would still reccomend looking at where chord tones land on the beat when using the descending rules vs ascending the scale normally or with Barry's chromatic scale system. That's the real key here.

      I yes I know. But since "dorian" is a typical flavor to resolve to, min6 and minor 7 are both valid choices for the end of a phrase. I find minor6 to be a more final sounding resolution for the purposes of performance is all.

      It's a long project for sure. I disagree that it would take ten years but certainly it will take quite a while to fully internalize in all 12 keys. Remember it's about the journey, not the destination.
