This is a demonstration and lesson on how to exploit the Lydian mode’s properties and features in order to create dreamy prog rock riffs and sections. We explore several ideas outside of Lydian, including writing in 7/4, polymeter, line clichés, and more.

"I'm not that creative, sorry". You sell yourself waaaaay short bro. But that is always the sign of a really good musician. Keep writing man. Love watching your creative process, which it is

A drummer once told me that the best way he'd found to count 7:4 time was to use the name of the name of a certain Hollywood actress, Gina Lollobrigida. WOrks for me :)

Forgot to mention in the video so I threw him on the thumbnail- theres a lot of of Steve Vai influence in this piece. I'm not saying I can play like Steve, I just swear this sounds like one of his tracks but I can't put my finger on which one, hopefully it's not a ripoff!

"Riffing with modes #4" haha I see what you did there Jake ;)

"Outshined" and "Spoonman" are songs that feature very groovy riffs in 7/4.

Out of the 2.7 bazillion guitar teachers I’ve run across here on YouTube, you’re the one that teaches I gravitate towards the most. You turn complex ideas into something that is easier (for me) to understand and apply. I truly appreciate you sharing your time and knowledge with us. By the way, I could swear I heard some Steve Vai influence in Lotus Lattice....very nicely done!!!

I've been writing music in FL Studio (Fruity Loops) for 20 years and only managed to make a few complete tracks. I only recently started taking piano lessons and learning theory blew my mind. I'm beginning to understand WHY a piece of music sounds good and HOW to make it sound good. Suddenly, everything I've done for the last 2 decades makes sense. Theory was the missing puzzle piece.

For anyone that is wondering why that jump from E to A works so well, even if these notes are "kinda far" from each other on the guitar neck, is because both of these keys are right next to each other in the circle of fifths/fourths. In fact, there's only one note that is different between them (A major has a D, while E major has D#), which makes the transition between them works really well and almost seemingly. That's why modulations from C to G (fifths movement) or C to F (fourths movement) works so well, because they're also right next to each other in the circle have only one note different between each. When you modulate using the circle of fifths/fourths, you get a really different sound than when you use a direct modulation by a halfstep or whole step, which are in fact way more common than the circles modulation. It all depends on the feel you want for your song, either kind of modulation can work, one being more discrete (modulation with the circle of fifths/fourths) and the other one being more in your face (direct modulation).
That video was awesome as always, Jake! Just wanted to add that little information and context to try and help people even more! Cheers!

Love your videos dude, I'm Chilean and I'm learning music theory and English and since you speak so good I can understand everything you say. Thank you

sounds like a few zelda songs mixed together: lost woods, zelda's lullaby and zora's domain (the oot version)

I personally thank you, dear awesome patreon supporters, for allowing this musical genius to share his extraordinary gift with the world.

7:30 Jeez when that distortion entered adding up to the whole idea, it just took me instantly to DT's The Best of Times.

Love your channel! I am finally learning theory after 30 years of by ear. Lydian and phrygian are my favorites. I can't thank you enough for helping unleash my true potential.

I'm going to look at his training courses

Music theory is key. I played crap for 30 years, in 8 months of music theory, my world has blossomed. Thanks, Jake and the Patreons!
