The Lydian mode is super for writing chord progressions and melodies. But can you use it to spice up a regular major chord progression as well? In this episode, I will show you how via borrowed chords or modal interchange, you can add that extra detail to your progressions. Also, you will discover how you can use it to shape new melodies and how the melody can strengthen the colour of your new chords.
Music, songwriting and composing music is all about details and having things in the right proportions. These music theory tips will definitely help you find new musical inspiration and will spark some creative improvisation sessions. I hope you enjoy the video and all the examples!
Let's get creative :-)
