Hi folks.
I recently stumbled across something that never accoured to me, but probably did to people at this forum. Ive been working with pentatoncis recently and I started replacing the minor 7th with a major 7th instead. The basic pentatonic shape became like this:
---------------------------------------5--8---
--------------------------------5--9---------
-------------------------5--7---------------
-----------------6--7-----------------------
---------5--7----------------------------
---5--8------------------------------------
I love the sound, and the playability of the shape. I think it sounds awesome over a F major chord (esp. over tune like Solar, with the #9 in the melody over the F major7 chord). It sounds great as a major7 #5 sound over Cmaj7#5, or why not over a G#7 altered. Anyone experimented with this before? Any cool applications to share?
Best, Sandemose
