modal change example

[\m/(00)\m/]

i wanted to see how something like this would sound.

it's just a 2 chord progression, with B and C with the inverted fifths to sound like a 7 string. and i did a lead over it.

the idea was to play a diffrenent mode over each chord. so over the B chord, i played C# locrian lines and on the C, i used C lydian lines as well as arpeggios. despite the tone, i think the playing kinda sounded a little petrucci'ish.

anyways, it's in 5/4 time and about 28 seconds long. check it out..

you know.. some people are trying to have a life besides the forum... and to some it just came crashing down like a ton of briks


clip is nice, but the guitar needs more presence. it's still a little bit muddy. playing is cool

there.. satisfied.. now leave me alone

i was just thinking that maybe in the 24+ hours that this has been here, maybe one person could have said somehting

rather than my own mindless bumping

Re: modal change example

I'm not sure how you're counting that ... sounds like a 2/4 bar sandwiched between two 4/4 bars to me. Good tone.

Re: modal change example

just listen to how many beats the rhythm guitar is playing.
1-2-3-4-5/1-2-3-4-5/1-2-3-4-5/etc.

Re: modal change example

Hmmm? I hear it as:

1-2-3-4 | 1-2-3-4 | 1-2 | 1-2-3-4 | 1-2-3-4 | 1-2 | 1-2-3-4 | 1-2-3-4 | 1-2 |

If you double up the beats, you do get 5 units of two beats each time, but I can't see how you'd call it 5/4.

Whatever!

Re: modal change example

hear the drums?

and the snare and bass drum, thats counting 5.

so:

crash-snare-snare-snare-snare/crash-snare-snare-snare-snare/etc.

Re: modal change example

I still can't hear that as 5/4 ... I've had a career as a session player, that would have been written out as 4/4 with a 2/4 bar thrown in, but like I said ... whatever. It is what it is no matter how you count it.
