hehe sir d ko gaanung nagets hehe la pa kase ako alam masyado sa modes
Sir, hindi kumpleto yun, eto inedit ko na; eto ung first way kung panu gamitin ung modes;
May tatlong ways from my experience to use modes;
II. First, is harmonically, let me give you some examples;
A.) Kunwari, sa iyong tanong nasa G major scale ka which is G A B C D E F# G, then may lick ka sa G major scale….you can harmonize it using Lydian mode which is the 4th mode of the major scale….in our example G major scale….so ang Lydian mode ay nagccmula from the 4th note C = C D E F# G A B C
Eto example ng isang lick in G major scale…..note may guitar 1 tayo and then guitar 2….pwedeng ikaw yung guitar 1 then ung isa e ung isang friend mo na rhythm guitarist…here we go!!!
Guitar I
---15-17-19-15-17p15s14h15p14s12h14p12-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
-----------------------------------------------------------15s17s15p13h15p13s12h13p12----12----------------------------------------------------|

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------12s14~~~~---|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Now in Guitar II - we will do the lick above 4th mode higher using Lydian mode starting from C ng G major scale.....

-------------------------------------------------------------20s22s20p19h20p19s17h19p17-----17---------------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------19-----19-17h19p17s16h17p16-------------------|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------17s19~~~~--|

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Ang effect neto ay nagharmonize tayo in 4ths (Lydian mode style).....
try this with your ka band mate or buddy.....
B.) another way of doing this harmonically by using modes ay for example nasa G major scale tayo ulit....then merun kang standard rhythm progression sa G like G Am C D......instead of doing a solo in G major scale, why not do a solo in E minor scale? Take note that E minor scale ay ang Aeolian mode ng G major scale which is also the relative minor scale of G major scale.....
G major scale
G A B C D E F# G
E minor scale
E F# G A B C D E - also known as 6th mode (Aeolian)
Try mo lang mag improvise using E minor scale over a G major chord progression.
a.) Ang effect neto e, nag iiba ung tonal center, instead na G major, ang tonal center mo ngyon ay E.....nagharmonize ka into 6ths....new and kakaiba ang dating ng solos mo....
b.) another effect is nasa G major scale ang rhythm mo, pero E minor scale ang solo mo.....parang pinagsama mo ung feel ng major scale (happy) then minor scale (sad)........
c.) another effect is habang nagpaplay ka ng G major scale chord progression, then ung solos mo e Eminor7th arpeggio....nagsisimulate ka na chord na GM6......kasi ang composition ng GM6 chord ay G B D E......G B D ung standard major triad na ginagawa mo sa rhythm section mo then add Em7 (E G B D) which is ung basis ng solo mo.....
Now, here is an example.....merun akong G major scale rhythm (paulit ulit lang).....then mag dedeploy ako ng arpeggios using E minor scale.....

-------------------5-------7-------------2pm-------------5pm-------4pm--|
--5-------7-------3-------5------2pm--------------3pm--------------------|
--3-------5------------------0pm-------------5pm-------------5pm--------|
Then eto ung E minor scale arpeggios na filler;

Next is ung 2nd way.
