In A, the notes of this mode are: A, Bb, C, Db, Eb, F, Gb, and these are the notes we’ll be using to play over A drone note in the backing track. In my opinion the best name to use here would be Super Locrian. You can use any name that you like just as long as you know how it’s related to other scales and modes. Knowing these relationships is what will help you with understanding and using modes in your playing. It’s important to understand each name and its context (what is it telling you?), because as we said, the names describe a mode’s relationship to other scales. So we have three different names for the same thing. The problem here is that there is one extra flat on the 7th, making it function as the Now the 7th mode of the harmonic minor scale in this context (when compared against G Mixolydian) looks like this: About Press Copyright Contact us Creators Advertise Developers Terms Privacy Policy & Safety How YouTube works Test new features Press Copyright Contact us Creators. Let’s take our G Major scale and G Mixolydian scale (whose Parent Major scale is C), and list out their notes. In a sense the harmonic minor scale is the default scale to which the melodic variations must return in order for the tonality to be maintained. It is also sometimes called Mixolydian#1, but why? Locrian has the Perfect 4th, while in Super Locrian that note is flatted (diminished 4th) and the b7 note is flatted once again.ĭiatonic Locrian: 1 – b2 – b3 – 4 – b5 – b6 – b7. It is also sometimes called Super Locrian which is a fancy name but that’s because it is the same as diatonic Locrian, but it goes one step further. As the name suggests, mode 2 is like the locrian mode only with a sharp sixth note. Harmonic minor and it’s modes have a very exotic sound, think middle eastern / Egyptian. However, most commonly it works best over the tonic (i) chord in minor key. Harmonic minor mode 7: 1 – b2 – b3 – b4 – b5 – b6 – bb7.Ģ. The harmonic minor scale is the same thing for it’s own respective modes. Of course, you can also use harmonic minor to colour minor chords on their own. Regular Major scale : 1 – 2 – 3 – 4 – 5 – 6 – 7. The Altered scale is actually the 7th mode of the Melodic minor scale and we’ll get to that soon. Though this is not the real Altered scale since we have bb7. It is sometimes called an Altered scale, since it is the Major scale with each of the scale degrees flatted (altered). This scale is the oddest so far and has different names.ġ.
