Day 23

Practiced Bass for 1 hour by afternoon and Guitar Alternate picking for 35 minutes by night.

I remembered I have a jazz music folder a teacher gave me some years ago, I never got around it. I will add all the music to my library and start analysing harmony and melodies of jazz music, but on a later date, since I’m still needing a lot of practice to dominate Alternate picking and some other tidbits of bass.

Today’s session was fairly relaxed, I’m surprised how fast I grew into alternate picking, so my method was effective and concentrated to teach myself fast and efficiently. I guess I can take the next step before shredding which would be:

Learning arpeggios

Learning the major scale and connecting it

Some other lesser priorities right now are:

Harmonic minor on guitar, and connecting it

Melodic minor on guitar, and connecting it.

I will do arpeggios on bass too, since particularly the arpeggios where something I never really bothered about, but I will have to learn them, connect them, and negotiate chord transitions and modal mixtures to create interesting, melodic basslines.

Hexatonic Scale building from the Harmonic Minor Scale Part 1

John McLaughlin Hexatonic Harmonic minor Guitar Scales Lesson and Explanation Hi Guys, Today, a quick look at creating a 6 note Hexatonic scale from the harmonic minor scale.

Today’s my birthday. I’m 42. A number with a lot of significance according to The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. “The Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything.” We’ll see about that…

Haven’t kept a music journal for the past two weeks because my father passed away. Without getting too personal it was a very intense experience. He was always very supportive and kind. He was also very charasmatic and animated. He lived a wild life when he was younger. Much more wild than I ever did. I picked up a lot of good character traits from him. I could go on and on but I’m not trying to make this too personal. Mostly focused on music.

That said the only things keeping me together practicing or making music, working out, and close family or friends. All three have been a natural anti-depressant.

Anyway… the next 6 months I’ll be focusing on harmonic minor scale and its modes. Studying the scales, triads and chords. I’ll focus on a new key every two weeks to get through all 12 in 6 months. I’ll going in order of the circle of 5ths.

I’ll also be focusing on the diminished scale. It’s going to be a dark and weird next 6th months. Seems fitting..

I’ll be doing maintenance on pentatonic and diatonic scales triads and chords but mostly as a warm up. Try not to get two caught up in it and focus more on harmonic minor and diminished.

Oh yea also keeping on directional/economy picking.. I have a book I’m working out of for that as well.

This sounds like a lot. Hopefully I didn’t load up too much. I think I’ll be alright if I organize my practice schedule right.
