This video lesson was requested. The person asked if you could write power chord progressions in Lydian. Yes, you can!

Attached is a .zip file containing the PDF tabs of what is played in this video, as well as the Guitar Pro files.

For December, I'll be taking a bit of a break from the typical lesson videos. I have some things I need to take care of and I just need to have the time to do it.

What I will be doing to provide some material though, is share some riffs of my own that I've been working on, or anything else I end up practicing. I'll do a quick video demo of what I'm doing, but it won't be as production involved as the video have been the past few months.  This material is only going to be for you patrons. Exclusive content!

A#5 ( A# and F) is not in E Lydian as F is supposed to be #

Nice one! I've always liked the lydian mode (probably because of the Vai obsession!) I've written a few lydian riffs but they've always sounded too much like a Vai rip off for me to ever use in a song!

I'll say partial credit on this one :) This is a good example of how theory can get confusing. An A#5 actually consists of the notes A# and E#. Sounds odd, right? This concept confused the crap out of me when my teacher presented this stuff to me. Even though the tone is an F, because A# is the root note the 5th interval HAS to be E something. In this case, E#. All 7 note names must be used when working with the Major scale. To find the notes of an A#5 chord, we need to use an A# Major scale. That gives us the notes A#, B#, C##, D#, E#, F##, G##. That looks ugly, I think. But, those would be the correct note names. If we really wanted to use the correct note that is in the 5th position in key, with A# being the root note, we would have to use E, creating a diminished 5th chord.

Thank you! Lydian is pretty damn neat. You can get some really odd, otherwordly sounds with it. I love the Sus #4 you get in Lydian.
