    In this video, I explore and compose a song using the Hungarian Major Scale. I discuss what makes it different from Ionian (Major Scale) and I will also use some Modal Modulation with Mixolydian to smooth out some passages in the example song. The final version of the song thus uses some modal interchange to achieve the perfect mix of mood.
    I use a 1992 Epiphone Sheraton to demonstrate
    In the final version, I use:
    Guitar: 1992 Epiphone Sheraton, 2022 American Original 60s Thinline Telecaster
    Bass: 1975 Rickenbacker 4001
    Synth: Roland SRX
    Vocals recorded with a Shure SM7B
    I use the Art Pro MPA II and the Art Pro VLA II as outboard gear.
    My MIDI controller is a Yamaha DX7
    Everything is recorded using a Universal Audio Apollo Twin USB.
    Mixed and recorded with Cubase 12 Pro.

    Just discovered your channel a day or 2 ago and have already binged all of these modal exploration videos! Amazing stuff my friend! Could I make a request for Lydian Minor next? Amazing scale I've been exploring recently!

    Very interesting stuff comes from it with the 2 half steps in the middle there. I believe same family as Neopolitan Major. Keep up the awesome videos can't wait for more!

    WOW! Mind= blown! OMG, I think your channel just became a "rabbit hole" of music theory for me to go down. This is the first video of yours I've seen, and I'm soooo glad it came into my feed!

    Thank you for another fascinating video! I'm familiar with this scale, although I never used it for making chords and tonalities like you do. I just used it for melodies as a variation of lydian dominant ("acoustic scale") with the #2 as a "chromatic note". In similar fashion I sometimes used b2 instead, which is called romanian major and can give a really spooky feel. Sounds very nice on flutes I think :-) One funny thing I recently realized is, combining these two scales gives the dominant diminished scale!
