    The scale of chords on major. Just 7 note. Pretty epic huh?



    The scale of chords on dominant. I alternate between the dim built on the b9 and then my device. Pretty crunchy eh?

    Lil tune clip in a stop-time sink hole as Reg would say lol. I think it's musical.

    Reminds me of what I used to hear in church when I was still young and barmy enough to go there. It's not impossible though that it only sounded that way because the piano was in dire need of a tuning job... (i.e. harmonies that were similarly ... surprising as the ones in the recording above).

    (warped minds don't think alike? )

    Haha

    I don't get what you mean by all this.

    QED ^^

    What's not impossible?
    What if I had written "It is not impossible though that it only sounded like that to me (back then) because that church piano was in need of a tune job"?

    this kind of stuff is good to experiment with..the diminished scale has great chords in it
    to use #9 b9 #11 and b13 they can create some very crunchy sounds..used in symmetric and chromatic ways

    My experiment--Db diminished

    A7b9/C# E13b9/D Eb7#9= A13/Eb) C7b9/E G13b9/F F#7#9

    and of course its a good mix and match and a jump off point to something more digestible

    Yes indeed. So that's your experiment for crunchy chords stepwise? This is an innovation I created with the same simple principle as 6th/dim but it ain't dim. Was wondering if any ear cats could tell me what it is. Bueller?..

    Well anyhoo, it's whole tone. I took the concept of 6th/dim and used any chord voicing of whole tone notes instead of the dim chord. I think it sounds pretty sweet. A little crunchier than dim. Can use it exclusively or in addition to dim. Gonna work it up so I can play tunes and improvise with it and not be in a stop time sink hole haha.
