Ep146 – The Lunacy of Scales (And a Better Way to Use Them)

from The Acoustic Asylum · host Dan Thorpe

In today’s episode, I talk about scales and how to use them. Often students are taught scales, but aren’t actually taught how to use them. Using scales doesn’t have to be complicated. I’ll take you through some scales and how to have fun using them to make music. It’s simple, fun, and sounds interesting. Take a listen and discover the secret to making the most of the scales you learn.
