Are you confused with what the modes are… or, how you can actually use them in a real musical setting?!
I was for a LONG time until I found the exercise I’m going to show you in the this lesson.
I’ve also got a VERY special guest with me in the new lesson… one of my favourite all time bass players. Ever. I’d go as far to say he’s one of the most musical and lyrical soloists on the bass I’ve ever heard.
Anyway, let’s do this…
As always, I’d love to hear about you’re experiences too - my feeling is that although many players know what the modes are - most struggle with applying them in a practical way to their bass lines, grooves, fills and solo lines. But… lemme know what you’re experiences are under the video in the comments!
See you in the shed,
Scott :)

Scott, Thank you so much! That simple suggestion of mixing modes around a single note rather than referencing the modes back to the root major, may have been the key to finally breaking me out of my mode mental-lock. Like you, when working on the different modes for a given key, it always sounded like the major scale just starting and stopping in different places. It was difficult to her the personality of the different modes in that context. Thank you very much!

After watching this video I've come up with an easy way (for me) to remember the modes without leaving the root chord and without reference to specific notes (a vestige of years of playing by ear): Memorize the order of the modes, then memorize the "numbers" in the modes where the scale moves a half tone. (Click "Read More.") Ascending: Ionian 4, 8 Dorian 3, 7 Phrygian 2, 6 Lydian 5, 8 Mixolydian 4, 7 Aeolian 3, 6 Locrian 2, 5 Notice that, from the top, the half-tone positions begin with 4 & 8, they descend in pairs from Ionian through Phrygian, then they begin again at Lydian with 5 & 8, descending again in pairs to the end. Think opposite; if you're ascending in the scale, then the half-tone locations descend in general from Ionian to Locrian (but with the "reset" at Lydian). Descending: Ionian 2, 6 Dorian 3, 7 Phrygian 4, 8 Lydian 2, 5 Mixolydian 3, 6 Aeolian 4, 7 Locrian 5, 8 Again, notice the pattern of the half-step positions, this time ascending in pairs Ionian through Phrygian, then from Lydian through Locrian.

Nice idea! Another way to think about it is imagine playing a major scale but only stepping whole tones (aka whole steps). You can't. Instead, you need to take a half tone (or half step) on the fourth and eighth note. This brings you up against the 3rd and 7th. After the fourth and eighth half steps you start moving whole steps again. Hence the 4,8 for that "chord scale" of Ionian. For another example, on the Lydian, you have to only do a half step on the 5th and 8th.

Ha! After watching your videos on & off for many years, this is the first one I found useful :-) Really great idea to keep the same root note but shift into a different scale (mode) since the contrast between the two modes is really emphasised and sounds so much more musical than playing each mode within the same key. I can see myself having fun with this for quite a while. Will try this tomorrow. Thanks Scott...

This lesson is fantastic because he emphasizes the importance of viewing modes independently of any particular key. You can write entire songs based around modes, where you simply shift the I chord up the major scale. So the ii minor chord of a normal major scale is the i minor tonic chord of the dorian scale, and you can write a tune in dorian around i minor where the cadences and harmonic rhythm imply a different tonic "home" chord (i minor). This can give a whole composition the "flavor" of a particular mode, which can really open up your options when it comes to songwriting. Everything doesn't have to be in major (ionian) or minor (aeolian) all the time!

I don't understand why people treat major/minor as the only valid "keys" and treat modes as these esoteric things. They're all the same thing, you just take the interval distance between the major scale and rotate through it to get the permutations. It seems like a false dichotomy to discuss modes as a separate thing from keys. Minor isn't seen as something special and confusing, but it's a mode just like anything else. Likewise, major is just a mode of minor. I also don't understand why people say modes only take on their character in context of the chord they're played over. A-minor has a distinct character which is different from C-major when played in isolation, and so do all the other modes. The concept of relative key is separate from modes, yet it seems like when people talk about relative keys outside of simple major/minor relationships then they all of a sudden become "modes". People over-complicate modes, it seems to me. Maybe it is all relative to how you conceptualize music, but I don't get the voodoo. To me, modes are just more moods to pick from instead of just major = happy, minor = sad. Pick the key flavor you want (major, minor, phrygian, etc.) and then if you want to combine flavors, just find the additional flavor(s) in a relative key. Mix to taste. Example: play E-Phrygian for some dark stuff and then morph to C-major if you want a sudden burst of happy. Super-easy because it's the same exact notes, just stressed differently.

I'm new to this and correct me if I'm wrong but natural minor is aeolian and major is ionian. I think the terms vary from source to source and gives it unnecessary complexity. If someone is telling you their song is in the key of E minor, the scale is E aeolian, all the playable notes on the fretboard are written in stone before the song even starts! And I recently found that these 7 modes have all the same pattern, so you only need to learn one pattern (shape and fingering) and choose your root note accordingly. When I found out how simple it was I could play any mode in any root without much practice. This topic is really complex to teach it seems.

@@virgilelafontaine3586 yea I think that’s the trick. Music theory has a funny way of saying the same thing different ways. Like E flat major is c natural minor and c aeolian, excep root changes on the minor. I suspect “modes” are the same, essentially if you know the major scales then you know all the modes just not where they start yet. Likewise if you know all the major scales then you know all the minor scales just not where then begin, which is easy to learn.

Great to hear Rich at the end re Zawinul who I saw at his last London gig at the Jazz Cafe, a night I'll never forget! There's one thing about your vids Scott that put me off... You don't have harmony going on, harmony that puts your parts into more context. Yeah, you mentioned using an E drone but I mean doing it like Rich did... Harmony behind the example. I believe it's essential...:-))

I found that for days that you want to use your brain mixing this exercise/study with the one on things to do every time you pick up your bass, IE scales arpeggios intervals.... combining the two is a really good overall bass exercise. it combines muscle memory with brain memory.

Hi Scott, I was trying to figure out a way to practice the modes and make them sink in my mind really well, I'm not there yet, but the same thing you say in this video was suggested to me by a guitar teacher, I don't know if it is useful because I haven't really practiced the modes yet, but I figured something can help me memorize them better, what I will do is to arrange the modes by the number of accidentals and then go through them as you suggest but by the number of accidentals with a logical ordering, for example, I'd like to start doing let's say C Lydian mode, since it has 1 accidental and it is an augmented 4th, then I do C Ionian with no accidentals, next I would play a C Mxolydian which has 1 accidental and it is the flat 7th, then a C Dorian, which adds the flat 3rd to the flat 7th we already had, an so on, from there it is like a pattern, so I think I'll make like an exercise doing that and trying to arrange them in the pattern of accidentals, I think that will be a better way to remember the modes since I really learn something better when I comprehend it rather than just mindlessly memorizing, hope this helps anybody and if you think this is a worst method to learn the modes let me know, maybe I got it wrong. Thanks.

Ya great lesson I figured this out on my own it was quite a challenge to understand modes in series I havent even started to understand in parallel so I'm still stuck with the c ionion family of scales I'm stuck on application right now I'm slowly ever so slowly starting to understand the scale in a improvising context problem is I started improvising with the pentatonic scale just a few months after getting the patterns down hell I use the major 3rd and the tritone regularly so I use that as a 7 done scale but I still cant get something fun out of the modes yet it's been about 2 years...
