A DEADLY CONVERSATION



September 6 at 11:12pm
Yo!!
U better come...otherwise i'll make u pl;ay Twinkle2 Little Stars the next time we jam at Bangkok Jazz

September 7 at 12:04am
Don't worry, I'll come to NBT and play Twinkle2 Lil' Stars at Bangkok Jazz. On C minor, how about that?? Haha. *SOK-SOK NANTANGIN YANG BERAKHIR DENGAN PENYESALAN*

It's on 23rd, correct?

Today at 1:46pm
hey...
nice to hear from you this often
COOL!
Yup,its the 23-24 Sept...

Why play on Cmin. only.??? *ONLY????*

How about solo over changes of a cycle of #5 starting on Cmin.
And then proceed to a cycle of b3, this time approach it starting from D phrygian.
Means u play the phrygian scale applying cycle of b3, starting from D phrygian. Got IT??? *NO!!!!!!!!!*

Then when u finally get em' under your fingers... 
Do the following:-
For each of the above exercises, after playing two scales, play the proceeding scale 1/2 step higher or lower, then proceed to another two scales *wait wait, let me understand the previous paragraph first*... etc etc

These are finger calisthenics *finger cali...what?!!* which build finger strength and you get to work your chops at the same time.

Remember... try to create melodic fragments to link it to the subsequent scales.

bro, i'm not kiddin' you!! *I'M NOT KIDDING YOU TOO!*
There are numerous combinations to approach playing outside the conventional method. What i showed you are an approach towards playing against a single minor chord over many bars (e.g SO WHAT, IMPRESSION) and approach to playing over dominant chords. 
For a start, approach the dominant chords by playing the above-mentioned method starting with the perfect fifth note of the dominant chord. (e.g G7 - start with D note, C7 - start with G note etc etc) *!@*^#*&@^#@&*#^@&*#^@&#^&*^!&#^!*

Have fun...let me know wht your ears tells after each session.
Use them when u jam this thurs at Bkk Jazz *wait, wait.. This Thursday???!! It takes me forever to understand what you're saying!*

CHEERS!
*sigh*
