- Hey there, friends and neighbours. You've been asking, and now we're doing a deep dive into how we make music using the modes. We'll talk about each mode and how they relate to the key, and we'll get into what gives each mode its melodic characteristic. I think you're going to enjoy this one.
LET'S TAKE IT TO THE BASS!

![6 Ways To Use Modes On Bass [Finally know what to do!]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/gUVMbs7CUt8/mqdefault.jpg)
That may be your best video yet! Pure gold. Thanks Rich!
Totally pinning this comment. Thank you, brother.
Hi. I play bass professionally, although never played much jazz. This video was an eye opener. I learned more practical information here than I have in years of experience. Thank you!
Wow! Thank you, Suzy. That means a lot to me.
Hands down, the best intro to application of the modes on the bass guitar on the internet. Bravo, Rich. We love what you do!
Wow! Very high praise. Thank you so much!
I've been playing off and on for 2 decades now and I am today years old in gaining any musical pragmatism for the modes. Thank you, Rich
SIR
LOTS OF LOVE N RESPECT FOR YOUR ALL GREAT STUFFS N GUIDANCES...
Great lesson
Gets me excited to play
Utilizing different modes and scales that extend beyond major and minor is a truly fun endeavor. Never know how one will experiment with each mode, or even a combination of many. Cheers
So true. Thanks for watching!
@@richbrownbass Cheers as always. It's a great time to learn!
Explore their construction , range of evocative feelings , and tactics to elevate , your composition by using them .
Rich, I appreciate your direct, easy to understand and no-nonsense approach to teaching. No matter how much I study and practice, there is always something new to learn! Cheers
Hi. Guitarist here. 1987 right handed guitar. 2005 left hd guitar. I appreciate using the ionian as a bass to build the other modes on as its a positive feeling which is relaxing physically. In guitar there is often a focus on minor, diminished, pentatonic scales which to me is restrictive.
Several weeks ago i realized i was holding the pick wrong and am using lighter picks(0.6, 0.71, 0.88 nothing above 1 mm) which impacts the fret hand memory due to pick flex. For years i used a 1.6 mm pick and was frustrated in idea generation. Thinner picks allow for fret hand to keep up, my hands are strong and see the delay a thin pick provides as lessening frustration. I mention this as you use fingers as plectrums but some bassists use picks. Feel of the instrument matters in using theory to say something.
I like the part where you can use diff modes to descend to the ionian. I find major and minor very boring your information will help me train and incorporate diff emotions.
I play left and right handed as that elicits diff emotions too. Playing left hand guitars feels very different for perceptual time.
Ive memorized the modal idea and will use that as i know most major keys what interests me is what chord progressions can be used by individ notes.
I was using the aeolian as an idea upon which to build scales. Your info is appreciated.
this came at the right time thank you so much
This is exactly what I needed with respect to modes! Thank you, Rich! Would also love to see an example on how the modes are used in chord changes in songs. Currently I've only been able to see them in a soloing context. I might also be overloading myself with lessons and not using what I already have at my disposal. Appreciate you always RB!
Brother! Again you have taken something and made it so easy to understand. You have a gift for teaching, this is another video I wish I saw 30 years ago. 😂 You are making me think about differently and dragging me out of my self-made musical rut!
Ok Mr. Brown, i'm before my wall...quick pass me a hammer before i noodle my fingers to stubs ....but First, you're my hero! thank you for sharing tid bits of your skill, your craft, your passion. We all appreciate it!
u are the bestttt!!!! THANK YOU
Super cool stuff
Soo great!
Just what i have been waiting for Thank You Rich!!!!
Brilliant lesson Rich, thank you and please keep them coming.
Love these lessons. Complex stuff is even more appreciated ^^ Great Work as always!
Beautifully demonstrated Rich.
Thanks!
You always present information that I already know but, in a different way. That forces me to think about it differently and that helps me to continue to grow. Thanks!
wow, this viweo is amazing
Ya did it again Rich, great lesson.
Wow! thanks Rich!!! you just opened so many doors for me. Great Lesson!
Once again, Rich, you open wide the door to study, and by that I mean strongly in the way Paulo Freire described the process.
Best videos on RUclips ❤
Wow! Thank you so much! 🙏🏾❤️
This made so many things finally click in my brain. 🙌
beautiful bass playing on your part.
Praise to the master!!!
Hi Rich, thanks again for this great video. You can't talk enough about using the modes. Your video's about it made my start practising over and over the last few months, trying to figure out this concept. It took me awhile, but once I understood it a new world opened up. It took my bassplaying to another level. So if you have more to tell us about using the modes, please do so on this channel. Thanks again and looking forward to more modes-stuff, 🙂
tnx again rich!
Thank you for watching!
This is wonderful Rich! It clears up so much for me. You really “opened a door” for me!
I love that. Thank you so much!
Nice learning sir thanks very much
thank u
Thank you so much for this. I’ve been playing the modes on the bass and guitar, but not making music from that yet, although I have better agility 😊. Now I will proceed to make music with modes! Thanks again.
I remember first telling you some time ago how you opened up the modes for me and my playing, now scrolling down through the comments it seems that you really do have that effect on people LOL!!! Great stuff Rich.
Rich-I have struggled with the modes, not the theory, but the actual use. This has been the best practical, “how to start” instruction I have experienced. Thanks-and now, to the shed.
I'm so glad, David. I know a lot of people struggle with getting an understanding of these modes. I'm really hoping this video helps. I appreciate you tuning in.
Great lesson! Could you do a lesson about how to get from intermediate bass player (stuck in one place practicing 2 octave scales, arepeggios, warm-up exercises, improvising and playing a bass line created on a fly to a backing track) to the advanced bass player and what to do, what to learn, what to practice, some theory to become advanced, some scale and arpeggio exercises but for the advanced bass player? IT WOULD BE SO COOL! And many people would benefit from this lesson. A genre playing lessons would also be GREAT for example how to play rock on bass, how to play metal on bass, how to play soul on bass, how to play motown on bass, how to play country on bass, how to play fusion (jazz-rock) on bass, how to play funk on bass and of course how to play jazz on bass guitar and how to start easily with walking bass lines and slowly become more fluent in playing walking bass (everything for intermediate/early advanced bass players) ! Could you please do lessons like this? It would be awesome! You are a great teacher and thank you for everything! I hope you will do lessons like these ideas I gave you in this comment. WE WOULD LOVE THAT! Greetings from Poland, Mike :)
I like this lesson. I had been trying to do a fill when playing in a major key by going up to locrian mode just because it has a nice flavor. I never perfected it, but this lesson seems to be the same sort of idea and each different mode has an interesting sound to it. Great advice.
Good advice to work with just one mode at a time.before combining them. I sometimes choose what the mode of the day will be.
Interesting. Thank you for sharing 😉. Have a wonderful rest of the week and weekend ✌️
My pleasure, Esther. Thank you for watching. 🙏🏾❤
A la Modes ! 🍨🍰
Super simple to understand. I feel like your comment that the phrygian and the lydian are the same shape could be a bit confusing to some :-)
Hey Rich! This is an incredible video, thank you so much for your time and education. Could you also make a video about bringing in modal patterns when they aren’t an extension of the original key? For example, how might I bring in a D dorian idea in a key that isn’t C major?
This is such a great lesson the way it builds on your previous lesson 👍. I get it intellectually so now it's down to me practicing hard to get it in my fingers! 😀
I have no doubt you'll get this stuff under your fingers with a bit of work. You got this!
@@richbrownbass thanks! At lunch break I revisited your previous video. I'm going to focus on this over the next few months.
For some reason I always found it difficult to communicate the concepts you cover here. I really enjoyed the way you put it together and the supporting examples you used. It's very well thought out and you just made it so much easier to understand. Thanks for the great video!
I truly appreciate the kind words. That means a lot. Thank you very much for watching!
Not exactly new to the bass, this is what I should practice 🥴 kinda doing it but getting easily lost in faster stuff. Thanks 😎
You'll get it. I know you will.😀
SIR
I WANTED TO KNOW HOW TO PLAY VARIOUS CHORDS IN BASS
привет старина! скажи, что ты думаешь про метод изучения ладов Frank Gambale ? основаный на мажорных трезвучиях от 4 и 5 ступенях? есть ли надежда, что ты сделаешь об этом урок?для баса это имеет смысл?будь здоров!
I was hoping you would get to this. Assuming that a tune has no weird (altered) chords, is a tune just a collection of modes with different root notes? For example, is a 1-4-5 tune in G essentially noodling on the Ionian, Lydian, and Mixolydian modes, since they all contain notes that are diatonic to the key? This would be a good topic to cover in a future lesson: how to use the modes in a song. Thanks again, Rich.
You're exactly right. Although, with that particular chord progression, you're probably playing a traditional Blues. In which case, all 3 chords (1-4-5) are dominant (Mixolydian). But on something like a 1-6-2-5 progression, the corresponding modes work perfectly.
Thank you so much for the donation!🙏🏾❤
Yes, I considered the blues exception, but you got my point. 👍🏻
It’s starting to make sense. I always been reluctant to solo unless I”m surprised with a “Take it!”, and even then I usually just keep the basic groove going. I hope to be able to do something with this excellent information.
What kind of Bass are you playing in this video?
I don't know if you have answered this in a previous video, but who is your favorite bassist?
I haven't answered this in a video.Thank you for the question. My answer is definitely Jaco Pastorius.
This is not how modes are supposed to be used, sorry, but you simply played the same scale along the neck.
Of course I did! Why wouldn’t anyone want to be able to access any scale anywhere on the fretboard?
@@richbrownbass not saying you did it wrong, but if you play the "dorian" fill on G chord and end on G note you are always playing the "ionian" mode. The difference is, of course, subtle, but that's the reason why people don't understand the modes and your video does not clear it (you gave a hint at the end but very faintly). One might ask, If you are always playing the same scale, why call it differently? Right? I guess this argument requires more than just a quick video to be explained correctly, that's the reason for my comment. I understand what you say because I've learned what modes are, but for those who haven't, this can lead to more confusion. Just my 2 cents. Btw, I love your videos : )
