Just like old times, I caught a few things while editing that might be confusing, or that I may have skipped over. First though, I think you should visit www.youtube.com/@BeardStank and pester him to make more videos! He also drummed for the last segment (#7_ and I forgot to credit him but you can hear him shredding it. 🔴Realistically, #6 should say "some modes," not "most modes". 🔴at 07:09 I say that the melody is "E major" when I meant to just say "E". 🔴I really trashed the idea of m3 and M3 happening at the same time (or b7 and 7), but there's more to that story. I understand that some people won't hear that moment as dissonant as I do and that's okay. M3 and m3 actually get mixed frequently in some styles like blues and rock and it sounds awesome. Despite that, playing G natural over an E7 chord in this specific setting triggers my ear to hear it as "wrong music." Just my tastes though, so don't take this rule of "don't mix 7ths/3rds" as sacrosanct. 🔴When you replace the b7 in Dorian with regular 7 you end up with the melodic minor scale. While melodic minor is rarely if ever composed "in," it often shows up in brief moments like this. If you understand #6 in this video you'll understand what "melodic minor" actually is referring to. 🔴I say E major a lot when I mean E7, but in this context, the two are basically interchangeable. When we talk about V in minor keys, it's expected that it might be seen as V7. You're not adding anything new to the mix when you turn V into V7, since its chordal 7th is just the 2nd of the key. 🔴The chorus for "Comfortably Numb" is in D major but it also "breaks the scale" a bit like we discuss in #2 by introducing a C chord, which is bVII. You can think of this as being borrowed from Mixolydian if you like or you can simply think of it as b7 temporarily taking over for natural 7. ph 🔴That Db/F chord is a Neapolotian 6th chord. I haven't done a lesson on it yet but hear how nicely it moves to V, which is played as Vsus4 first. Simply put, it's bII in first inversion going to V or V7. -When describing chords in the key of Bm I called A the "natural diatonic 7th." This is confusing because "natural 7th" means leading tone and not b7. I meant the word "natural" in the sense that it "naturally occurs in minor" but upon editing I realized how poor of a phrasing that is. Just imagine I said "diatonic" instead of "natural" in that section please! 🔴My promo for the online book has a typo in the text lol… at the time, a bunch of flat signs went missing but it's been fixed. 🔴By the end of January I expect to be able to take orders and ship the physical Chord Progression Codex to most countries. The sheer size of the book (430 pages) combined with the fact that it's spiral bound means that many print-on-demand companies won't work with me though, which is why things are taking additional time. So check back soon if you want the physical book but don't live in the US! LASTLY - I'm immensely happy to be back on youtube again. I know that might sound weird but really, the book thing was overwhelming. Though I finally got it to where I'm happy with it, the process took way more time, money, and effort than I wanted to invest. Today marks the end of that road though and I'm legit glad to say that my job for the next few years is to make fun youtube videos again!
I totally understand the book being overwhelming. You put a TON of really great information in it. And while I've missed your videos, I feel like in the long run I'm going to learn so much from the book.
Welcome back, brother! I have missed your videos. I remembered your book part but then I thought tgat probably you have given up on youtube. It is good to have you back!
@@DirtyJohnny If you want to buy the digital book you'll need an account to access the online part of it. It comes with an offline PDF though and will automatically include the ebook when it releases (in a few months)
DearJake,... So many people--myself included--are so glad to see you back with a new video! You truly have a gift for helping people find the beauty in music... but more than that, you help them find *their* music inside themselves. Seriously bro, you taught me more than any other UA-cam channel over the years. I hope this is one of many more to come in 2024. Cheers!!
I'm a guitar instructor and I've been teaching this topic for about 20 years now. I will say that your presentation here was one of the most thorough and comprehensive that I have seen or even heard of as this topic is the one that many teachers fall short with. The way you broke it up into 7 methods is brilliant and you also have the gift of being able to deliver your teaching effectively which unfortunately is not common enough in the world of teaching music. Great playing too and excellent work with the melodies you created and the way you connected them to the intervals being introduced. You even went a little into the emotional aspects of the intervals and I usually only see that in music from the east with the microtonal scales. I like to give credit where credit is due and you are a fantastic and I would say extremely competent instructor. It's obvious that you care about what you're doing too which is the way in which you and I are the most similar. I hope many new guitarists who decide to really dive into theory find you so you can help prevent the potential musical illiteracy that threatens the world right now. What you're doing is far more important than probably you even know. I tip my hat to you good sir, your skills are needed very badly and I wish you all the best. May the rock and roll gods be with you. Jeff
Damn, right! This guy is awesome! And I lately saw a vid of NewJazz about all 33 scales. Damn. That was dope! I am a hobby drummer, actually, so just knew about descaling ... Anyway. I am here with my Cubase and Ableton and wanna start to write something. For the most mates, there is only mayor and minor and a few months ago I got to know mixolydian b6... huh! As a drummer?! Great stuff! Nice to have you bach here!
Thank god you started posting again. I loved the Major to lydian modulation. Sounded lovely. You seem to really understand modes unlike other composers who see modes as different colors of major. What i learnt from my exposure to Indian and Persian modal music is that- these styles employe specific phrases of every mode, bringing out very specific flavours out of each tetrachord. Its an immensely interesting concept. If we contine to think of modes in terms of degrees of brightness a lot of this modal flavor would be missed. There are a few cultures that identify the phrygian and other non major scale modes as happier or cheerful scales. To them major doesnt mean much. And there are times when Dorian can sound like funeral music. Modes unlock unlimited possibility when we think of them in terms of phrases.
The man that kickstarted my journey is back!! 🔥🔥 And even after a year he manages to explain something clearly I have not learnt yet, great to see you again king 💪
@@SignalsMusicStudio My use of it is actually as an extremely up-front, not-rock-at-all in my song Bittersweet Serenity. There's something about the synth I made that fits the chord just perfectly - the rub between C and C# is reduced _just_ enough to be beautiful instead of grating.
There's certainly a time and a place for it. V7#9 specifically uses both thirds and sounds amazing in a lot of uses going back to i or I. Its why i clarified in my pinned comment about how i think i was unneccesarily harsh in my rant on it... but still, in this scenario i hate b7 lol. @@smergthedargon8974
Maaaaan this pretty much sums up 2 years of boring Harmony classes in a simple and super efficient, easy to understand way. Thanks a lot for the video, keep it up!
I believe you meant Schrödinger, not Heisenberg. Regardless, very happy you’ve returned to UA-cam. Your method of instruction has been the most effective at teaching me music theory. A perfect balance of theory and illustrative examples. Thank you!
So glad you're back! I bought the digital version right away when it came out. That last part of this video with a different scale over each chord is just the type of thing I like to hear. Keep up the great work man....
I searched "how to write chord progressions with modes" because I could never make them properly spicey, and ended up with Signals and was suddenly psyched. relieved.
This guy makes music sound so colorful , the jumper he’s wearing was white before he put it on. This Coco Chanel is top ace for learning arranging with guitar.
You can probably spend all 2024 exploring the possibilities laid out in this video. Excellent stuff as always and I really appreciate the always very musical examples, which always add additional creative ideas to pick up.
This such a great start to the year!!! I'm so excited for a new video. You have taught me SO MUCH. I've been playing for about 10 years but never got past learning basic chords and reading tabs. Covid hit, I had a lot of downtime, and I got into music theory because of your videos. Now it's one of my biggest passions. You've changed lives..
I bought the digital version of the book and although I am far from finishing it, I can already say that it has been the best investment I have made in musical knowledge. It contains all the information you need to start composing music in any genre that interests you. All of this information is provided to you in an easy-to-follow approach that anyone at any level can follow. If you are interested in the topic it is essential.
The real thug life is mixing those semitones for ultimate drama. I'm just kidding of course. Glad you're back and love your constant reference to and videos about modal music.
whats weird is how good the mixed 7ths (or 3rds) actually sound in a blues context. probably gonna have to do a video all about "the clashing of the 3rds"
This comment will get lost in amongst all the others and just reflects what many will say......glad to see you back. Definitely one of the best and most interesting music educators out there. Excellent as usual.
This video would of helped me out so so much like 20 years or more ago (If only UA-cam was around like it is today back then)! I remember asking my friend who had a degree in classical composition something along the lines of "How do I know what chords I can play, and when, when in a certain key?" and "How do I go about combining different keys in one song?" and "What's the point of keys if people just play chords and notes not from that key all throughout the song?" and "How do you assign a key if there's so many different chords and notes from other keys being played all the time?" His answer was something like "You can pretty much just play anything you want, whenever you want." Which is technically true, but extremely unhelpful to someone asking that question who's clearly trying to grasp certain specific concepts that they don't understand and potentially don't even know about, but just know that they don't know something and can't ask the exact right question to get to that knowledge, due to their lack of foundational knowledge allowing them to know how/what to ask lol. I figured it out eventually by myself, but it would of saved a whole lot of bother if I could of just watched this; As this answers the most fundamentally hard thing to get your head around when first getting into music composition and wanting to fully grasp the guiding theoretical concepts (at least from my experience)! ;)
Some channels I just open the new video then hit like before anything then watch whatever is there. Jake is one of the best music education channels I have ever seen. Thanks man. Always good to get introduced to new fresh ideas.
Best music theory channel on the internet comes back after the longest hiatus ever, doesnt even address his absence, launches right into it. Absolute legend
I will never write a single piece of music in my life. But man do I love Jake’s videos! I’ve played guitar for 30 years and your teaching has really helped me understand the finer points of chords so much. Jake, you are such an amazing teacher. Thank you for everything you do for the UA-cam community.
This video changed the way I make my songs and I am so happy because it feels so good when something finally clicks in your brain. I was having trouble finishing my songs, I still do to be honest lol. But I'm doing a lot better now
So glad to see that you are back with another great and helpful video, Jake! You are a source of knowledge and inspiration. A true gift for us in the musician community around the world! Thank you so much!
OMG . The man himself is back . The guy that does the best guitar/music theroy, tutorial videos that everyone loves and everyone puts to use. Now this is a great start 2024. Thanks for coming back.
Welcome back! I’m so glad to see that you’re still with us. I was genuinely worried that something bad had happened to you. I’m being serious. I’m glad that you appear to be doing well.
Scarborough Fair from S&G is probably one of the best examples of Dorian mode songs, that gives the whimsical vibe that it's expected to deliver. Never thought that I could wrap my head around modes let alone create something musical with them. Every Jake Lizzio video has been a Eureka moment for me so far 🙂 🙌.
I had no idea you were writing a book. Glad to have you back on YT. You're probably the best on here. It is your channel I recommend to anyone learning music theory.
SO glad you're back Jake! Can't believe it never occurred to me that you have a Patreon in which case I would've known where you went. All that is corrected now. Physical Codex: Purchased, Digital version: Purchased, Patreon: Joined, Course: already purchased... I'm a sponge and just added keys to my guitar and theory journey so I'm buckling up for your course and book.
Glad everything is fine with you and you accomplished writing a book. Really, it's always scary when a content creator simply vanishes and then I figure out something unexpected happened (health issues, grief,...) Thanks for the content
At least once a year I rewatch your “riffing with modes” series. It revives the passion to create music in me, and shows how easy it can be. I feel like it’s gonna be the same with this video. So so so glad you’re back

thank you its good to be back, i really don't want to write another book lol
Ditto that. Good to see Jake back.

Scarborough Fair from S&G is probably one of the best examples of Dorian mode songs, that gives the whimsical vibe that it's expected to deliver. Never thought that I could wrap my head around modes let alone create something musical with them. Every Jake Lizzio video has been a Eureka moment for me so far 🙂 🙌.
@2:41 - getting some strong Final Fantasy X "Calm Before The Storm" vibes! Love it!
Sour note Gandalf gave me quite the guffaw. Bought the codex immediately man. Seriously my favorite music theory guru out here thank you Jake Lizzio!
Very happy to see you back. Still the most useful and easy to learn from theory channel on YT bar none.
He's BAACCK!
I had no idea you were writing a book. Glad to have you back on YT. You're probably the best on here. It is your channel I recommend to anyone learning music theory.
The legend is back!!!! I'm so happy to see you upload a new video!
The real wiz kid.
Thanks so much, man.
God bless you for giving me the feeling that I'd just have my kinda chords in a song.
SO glad you're back Jake! Can't believe it never occurred to me that you have a Patreon in which case I would've known where you went. All that is corrected now. Physical Codex: Purchased, Digital version: Purchased, Patreon: Joined, Course: already purchased... I'm a sponge and just added keys to my guitar and theory journey so I'm buckling up for your course and book.
Glad everything is fine with you and you accomplished writing a book. Really, it's always scary when a content creator simply vanishes and then I figure out something unexpected happened (health issues, grief,...)
Thanks for the content
So glad to have you back on UA-cam! I was watching the old videos again every once in a while too lol
Best youtube music teacher. I've learned more from these videos than everything else combined in a fraction of the time.
Number one music educator on here, no question.
I 'm seeing an unskipable ad and I already know it's gonna be great as always. Good to have you back, man. 🎉
15:38 that bII6 was BEAUTIFUL
Duuuuude you're back! I feared this channel was dead man, welcome back :D
what a cool way to describe the beautiful Lydian mode 13:34, and glad to see you back
Thanks for coming back. Your intervals lesson did more for my understanding than 5 years of in person lessons. Sincerely, thank you.
10:16 man this is total bop. the transition to aeolian really is immensely satisfying.
Hi Jake! So happy you're back! I see you on Patreon, but missed you on here. Happy New Year!
At least once a year I rewatch your “riffing with modes” series. It revives the passion to create music in me, and shows how easy it can be. I feel like it’s gonna be the same with this video. So so so glad you’re back
You are back 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Welcome back 🎉🙌
