    • @prepcoin_nl4362
      @prepcoin_nl4362 Год назад

      The simple answer is voice leading, three formulas in particular: The VII - I (Leading tone function), II - I, and V - I (especially in the bass.) These all tend to have a cadential effect and cadences (expected or realized) tend to be what creates a feeling of function.
      That's why modern music often sounds less functional because there tends to be relatively loose (or sometimes non-existent) voice leading. It's also why strange non-triads can sound functional (like augmented sixths for instance that have always managed to elude any sort of chord or scale labeling)

  • @alexrayder1

    Actually there is a lot more scales ! Instead of thinking about them individually, think about them in Families.
    Here are all the families:
    - Major
    - Harmonic Minor
    - Melodic Minor
    - Harmonic Major
    - Double Harmonic
    - Augmented (1 scale)
    - Diminished (2 scales)
    They all have 7 scales except for the Augmented and Diminished. Double Harmonics is the family with these notes: C Db E F G Ab B
    To know how to name the scales correctly, you just have to know what is the strongest identity of a scale.
    All scales with a major 3rd, major 7th and a perfect 4th are Ionians (with alterations).
    All scales with a minor third and a major sixth are Dorians.
    All scales with a minor second and a perfect fifth are Phrigians.
    All scales with an augmented fourth are Lydians.
    All scales with a major third and a minor seventh are Mixolidians.
    All scales with a minor third and a minor sixth are Aeolians.
    All scales with a minor second and a diminished fifth are Locrians.
    And with that, you can name your new scales from all families. Exemple:
    - The second degree (II) from the Melodic Minor is called Locrian #6
    - Harmonic Major first degree is Ionian b6
    - Double Harmonic IV = Aeolian #4#7
    This is how scales are called in Jazz theory. And so, for the minor scales usually used in classical music, you can call them:
    - Minor Melodic (First degree from his own family): Dorian #7 (or Ionian b3)
    - Minor Harmonic (First degree from his own family): Aeolian #7
    Now i'm in hope for a 1h long video with all those scales used for Bohemian Rhapsody haha

    Amazing video! I'm from South America and our default minor scale, in our folkloric music, is the melodic minor. So, the natural minor sounds a little "unfinished" or "unpolished" to my (but I like it anyway).

    What a great bit of music to pick for an exercise like this--one where everyone knows the melody and chords backwards. Makes it very easy to hear the main differences between modes. Great video!

      I agree. But while it was very smooth and pleasant sounding here I usually like the harmonic minor more. Harmonic major is also a cool sounding scale which I'm going to use more in the future (so far have done only one track using it).

But apart from that , everything else has also been wonderfully explained. Excellent video !!!! Many thanks , David 👍🏼👍🏼

  • @rome8180

    I thought the melodic minor and the Mixolydian worked the best. The rest were pretty awkward, even for scales I normally love like Lydian and Phrygian dominant.

    This seems both ambitious, and potentially very fruitful and enlightening. Looking forward to it. My mind is willing, but my ear is spongy and weak...
    I was so interested and hopeful when the illusion of modes broke, and I understood how simple the concept is. But I just can't really hear them, except in extreme cases like Phrygian and Lydian.

    This was awesome. I really liked the Locrian version. Next time, my requests are Hungarian Minor and Double Harmonic (or miss Phrygian Major if you're nasty). And/or the two Locrian variants in Harmonic Minor that produce full diminished I chords: Locrian major 6th and Locrian double-flat 7th.

      @@CommanderGinyu It's highly dependent on context. When writing a song in Lydian you have to be aware not to hit certain notes and avoiding certain chords. When done well it can be absolute magic.
