1. When I create a riff, I need to some how build around it to create the song, now, first I find out what key its in, and to find that I...
a) The key thats played the most in the song?
b) the key thats first strung or played?
c) the ending note?
2. Now that I figured what key its in I do what? I know the scales, mixo, phy, lydian, ya know, so what I do is I play a scale that is in the same key as the riff and just mess around untill I find somthing I like, is this correct so far?
3. (((And lastly I want to know basicly how the scales link up)))
Its 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1. right? and I just find like 1, then find a 2, then 3, ect. and play them and thats how there linked up? I just want to learn a run or for another example could I go like,
1 2 1 2 3 2 3 2 3 4 3 4 5 4 5 4 5 6 5 6 7 6 7 (for example)
this is just an example for like doing a run on your guitar
I dont know if im making any sense but im saying like there are 7 notes in a scale and just going back one and going up, bah let me know if im making sense or am i just drunk and high.
My guitar is like an umbillical cord, its wired into my head.
