shpongled Posted December 22, 2001 Posted December 22, 2001 Can somebody show few cool spacey or mystical sounding chords / chord progressions ? or just cool chords ? Which scales go well together in a track ? Can I play bassline from any key that is in chord ? Thanks in advance. Quote

Guest emptyspace Posted December 22, 2001 Posted December 22, 2001 4 stands for the octave. Change the octave to 5 in the last G#4, G-4, ---, C#4. (leave F in 4th). Add 3 step delay. It will sound a little like astral projection. Quote
shpongled Posted December 22, 2001 Posted December 22, 2001 Okey thanks... I will check that melody... BUT... I asked chords not arpeggios (melodies)... anyway.. thanks. Quote
Guest Inukko Posted December 23, 2001 Posted December 23, 2001 R U talking about pads/harmonies? Quote
Guest aonia Posted January 6, 2002 Posted January 6, 2002 try any combination in the PHRYGIAN scale: F# - G - A - C# - D Quote
shpongled Posted January 6, 2002 Posted January 6, 2002 Inukko... chord = when you play two or more notes at the same time. Aonia... is that really a whole scale? There are only 5 notes.. usually there are more notes in a scale. Quote
Guest Inukko Posted January 6, 2002 Posted January 6, 2002 I know what chords are... but what are you trying to use them for? That's my question. Quote
shpongled Posted January 6, 2002 Posted January 6, 2002 I would like to use chord progressions in music... not just one note melodies. It's very hard to make "non-cheesy" chord progression. Quote
Guest aonia Posted January 7, 2002 Posted January 7, 2002 The Phrygian scale(used mostly in indian music) is a pentatonic scale, which means it has five notes: F# - G - A - C# - D - F# You can make chords like C# - F# or probably any combination of these notes... Quote
Hels Posted January 7, 2002 Posted January 7, 2002 The Phyrgian scale isn't a pentatonic scale... It's the third mode of a major scale. An F# Phyrigian is F# G A B C# D E F#. Quote
Guest Elysium Project Posted January 7, 2002 Posted January 7, 2002 I use chords in my music shpongled (most of the time strings and other "natural instruments")...... it's not that hard to learn........ but I agree that you need to be careful so it wont sound cheasy :-)....just play around with it and you will come up with something that sound good!

Guest aonia Posted January 7, 2002 Posted January 7, 2002 Hels: I found a site about music scales where it says Phrygian is a pentatonic scale, it might be wrong though... this is it: http://tyala.freeyellow.com/4scales.htm Or maybe I got it wrong...I'll check the site again.. Quote
Hels Posted January 9, 2002 Posted January 9, 2002 Ah I see...read above on the section entitled modes...it shows a full Phyrigian scale there. The pentatonic section is odd, I've never heard anyone using a Phyrigian pentatonic, or a Lydian pentatonic! Neat stuff I'll have to play around with em, see how they work out Quote
