Description

In this lesson I talk about applying the diminished scale in a not-so-subtle way. See the previous week's post on the inverse of this, applying the diminished scale in a 'subtle' way.

The 'not-so-subtle' approach picks out the major and minor triads that exist in an 8 note diminished scale and really leans on them. There are many ways that this can be applied, but here I talk about applying it directly on a minor chord - not implying some external harmony or what have you, but rather using a diminished scale that already has a lot in common with the diatonic minor tonality, and seeing what we can get out of that.
