Tricks

im starting to get into the tricks part on here, and just submitted my first trick.

its entitled "Rhythmic Arpeggios" by Incidents Happen, and its sorta bluegrassy/country, depending on how you play it. It's pretty simple, but you can add stuff to it to make it sound like you while retaining its original form. Im off to post new ones!

you've been on here since last year, but never posted a trick? and you say you have just gotten into the tricks section? well what have you been doing all this time? LOL.

Yeah im gonna get into the Eastern Culture'd scales in a few monthes, i have a few more kinks i want to wrap out of my Western Style playing.

I love eastern scales, they sound great when you're tired of really predictable western scales and don't feel that warm "my brain is computing music" feeling anymore.

If you want some eastern scales I have tons on my brothers website, just go to "friends", Andrew F. and then follow the links to my scales resource. There are about 40 scale types (that's excluding modes)its at http://www.classaxe.com

Here are some relevant tricks of mine, got harmonic minors (used often in western music but more of an arabic thing really), bhairava scale (very easy scale to finger, very very heavy, full of useable chords and only one note different to harmonic minor) and a hungarian major thing that's like a diminished missing one note and is really scary.
