I think videos like this (simple explanations and not too much different stuff cramped into one lesson) help a lot with writer's block, even if it's nothing new to you, for some reason.

Great lesson to get young guitarists to stop overthinking.

I am legit stealing your relation of major as epic rather than happy. I love that and its so true man.

My theory is 2nd and 3rd notes in a key are minors and the 4th and 5th would be the resolve which is the last chord of the progression. So for a key of D major, i would always start at D then pick any note for 2nd and 3rd chords and end on either G or A. Some examples are D-Em-F#m-A, D-C#-Em-G,D-Em-F#m-G. The combos are endless as long you follow the theory.

Just a quick thought. At 7:15 the riff he plays is not in D Aeolian, or the natural minor scale (which is what most people think of when they š¤ "minor scale"), but in E Phrygian. To put it simpler, we clearly hear that the riff "revolves" around, or hinges so to say, on the note E, which is the 2nd fret, and not around the open D. This is often a source of confusion when riffs and melodies sometimes just don't seem to fit, even though thy both supposedly utilize the same minor scale. It is true that both use the same exact sequence of notes 0-2-3-5-7-8-10-12-14-15-etc., but they have their "home", also known as root, on different frets: fret 0 /open string for D minor (aka Aeolian), fret 2 for E Phrygian, fret 3 for G major (aka Ionian), and so on and so forth. Drop tunings really help us see such enigmatic concepts as The 7 Modes of Guitar in a different light :

I feel like this is what I've been doing subconsciously whenever I've been writing riffs, but I've never really thought about it until this video. Thanks Ray, rad lesson.

This has BY FAR been more enlightening to me than any guitar videos I've watched yet and I owe all my education to YOUTUBE. So you have defintiley helped me out brother thank you!

Dude, your vibe is so awesome. I rarely see joy and joy from metal/rock players (Eddie was the most joyous rock player I'd seen)...keep doing your thing!

it is always cool to see how other musicians write and create there songs and riffs.

I been following Ray for a minute but I never realized he was such a riff giant.

Sometimes I just do some air guitar picking and imagine the riffs on my head. Then plug in the guitar and play it out loud. Doesnāt have to sound good at first but with long hours of playing and improvisation, the tone will get there.

Very nice!!! š¤š„š„š¤ love how sometimes things are heavy and yet simple

Thank you for this video Ray. Definitely learned something from it as I typically over think my playing. Going to try to apply the same tactics you use when playing to try and write something of my own. Even if it doesnāt work for me, it was still something new to try and experiment with.
