NEW: Griffiths's Scales Tutorial, Minor-Minor!

griffiths · 10-17-2016, 08:28 AM

Hello, I would like to introduce you all to my new technique Griffiths's Scales!

Let's start off with the standard C Minor:

New something new, Reverse C Minor:

When we play going up the keyboard we play in C Minor:

And when we play going down the keyboard we play in Reverse C Minor:

Here's a simple tune combining both going up and going down the keyboard:

I call this Scale Minor-Minor.

That's it, a simple technique with the best sound yet. Give it a try!

My name is Paul G Griffiths, I'm 41 years of age from Bristol, England.

I would love to hear your songs so post them to this thread!

Thank you.
Paul.

So you're telling me that in the thousands of years that people have been making music... no one's used this particular scale before.

I believe so man. I've searched the web and seen nothing of Minor-Minor.

Too be honest once you've used it your never go back to using just Minor, it has almost all the notes and has an amazing sound.

What you call 'reverse minor' is commonly referred to as the Mixolydian mode. So essentially the idea is ascend Aolean, descend Mixolydian. I can see how this might be useful in very specific contexts where you want to create a major/minor ambiguity.
