scales with Minor seconds?


Recommended Posts

why do scales with minor second intervals SOUND chromatic or angular?

 

 

The major scale has minor seconds, and in just about every song I've ever heard using it, there's not a whole lot of angularness going on, and it's certainly not "chromatic."

True. Was that a riddle or something?

With the exception of pentatonic, wholetone, and whatever custom scales that specifically omit m2nds, all scales have minor seconds. And I think angularity is a function of intervallic width and melodic contour, not any kind of harmonic tension per se.

Minor seconds are in melodies or scales which is angular

 

Which MODES have minor seconds?

 

In Gmajor F# to G is a minor second also which is the 7th degree

:D NOT that those are the ONLY two possibilities, but...

 

I prefer to have guys that are experienced with lots of different types of gear, playing live, recording, experience etc...so that their experience can help others avoid taking longer routes to success than necessary. The guys with the experience to help guys with tricks to avoid ground loops, impedance issues with lots of pedals, with knowledge of midi mapping and signal routing with rack effects tricks, wiring of guitars etc...

 

The idea of just having a gathering spot to hang out and shoot the {censored}, is what the open jam forum is for. :idea:

Yeah if only. I'm all for good technical, pro information too. I guess HC is making changes - or at least trying to bring about change. Musicians however, will be musicians. :D

I don't follow Walters around so when he does show up here or at the drum forum there's no vendetta reflex goin' on. It's always hilarious how his threads evolve.
