Hello Brian. I stayed away from all guitar videos for a while cause I was discouraged. Seemed my playing wasn't getting any better and when I listened to myself recorded.... I WAS HORRIFIED...😒😞. Since then I came back with a NEW OUTLOOK. Instead of COMPARING MYSELF TO others....I thought maybe...well I can't really COMPARE because everyone's WORLD VIEW is different. Every one has different circumstances and makes their own CHOICES. So you seem DOWN TO EARTH and not condescending, but helpful! Not saying anything BAD about the others...JUST YOU ARE MORE MY TYPE and I UNDERSTAND YOU. So thank you for all you have done. I will be joining zombie guitar shortly. YOU ROCK BUD😎
Another great lesson, thanks. When playing modular scales from the major scale, for the backing chords is it good practice to use the parent chord and the chord of which particular mode you are playing? For example if playing B Phrygian which is from the G major scale, would you use G major and B minor chords?
For B Phrygian, you would want to treat the B minor chord as your tonal center. You would still be using the chords that are found in the key of G major if you were to make a progression out of it, but you would need to make sure that the B minor chord was your tonal center. A very common second chord to use in Phrygian, is a major chord that is 1/2 step higher than the first chord...so your "Phrygian progression" would be Bm - C. Both of those chords are found in the key signature of G major still.

Yes...a mode of the major scale is simply a rearrangement of a key signature. So if a key signature contains sharps, then all 7 modes of that key signature also contain the exact same sharps. The same applies to the flat key signatures too!
Hey Brian, great video! You mentioned major scale modes, minor melodic modes, and harmonic minor modes. I was wondering are regular minor scale modes included in the major scale modes because of the major/relative-minor relationship? For example you listed modes 1-7 for G major, right? Would the relative minor (of G major) E minor modes be 1 Aeolian, 2 Locrian, 3 Ionian, 4 Dorian, 5 Phrygian, 6 Lydian, 7 Mixolydian?
@@zombieguitar Wow! Impressive website! It must have taken quite awhile to create and organize all of that! Do you have a name for the zombieguitar members? Like the rockin dead? Lol. Just kidding.

You have a knack for making difficult music theory concepts on the guitar easy to understand. You are an excellent teacher! Thank you!
this is without doubt the clearest explanation of the modes thank you

Glad to help. Thanks for following my vids! 😎
very well explained and you make it simplified to understand. great job on this lesson !!! thank you
Soooo good!. You have no idea. You intuitively fill in my knowledge gaps. Most players have the same gaps. Really great stuff.
yess fill in the gabs i did have marvelousssss
Thank you very much Brian for your explanation. modes are not the easiest to understand. I appreciate it.
JahIssa Waganda no problem! Thanks for watching!
So clearly explained. Big Thanks.
Cleared up a lot of fog. Thanks for the lesson
This is great....finally an explanation that makes sense to me!!!
You make things easy to understand. Thank you.
I get it. I finally get it. Excellent lesson, Thanks buddy
No prob!
Excellent explanation! Thank you!
Thanks Big B good video 😎👍👌💯🎸🎸
The mathematical precision of all this is on a par with celestial mechanics .
Thought provoking lessons here! Thanks!!
No problem...thanks for watching!

@@zombieguitar Thanks Brian, you're the best!!
@@neilrobinson7615 no prob 😎
That Helps!
What type of chord changes indicate Phrygian ? (Such as two major chords next to each other is indicative of Mixo) Thanks!
Phrygian is usually Major chord followed by a minor chord....or vice versa !
Hi Brian, do the individual modes have their own flats and sharpes
Yes...a mode of the major scale is simply a rearrangement of a key signature. So if a key signature contains sharps, then all 7 modes of that key signature also contain the exact same sharps. The same applies to the flat key signatures too!

@@caseymanm9445 haha it's my labour of love. I've been working on if for a little over 3 years now, and not stopping amytime soon!
Brian knowing the parent scale what does it help us in ??
Minggam Mr.Right did you watch the whole video? I explain the “application” in this video as well.
Natural born teacher but . . . Brian - don't worry, be happy!
Graeham Smith hey thanks for the comments!
Dda Iawn!!!!!

Yes modes (of the major scale) are just a rearrangement of a key signature 😀
