A quick breakdown of modes:
Ionian: otherwise known as a Major scale. Often associated with feelings of happiness, simplicity, brightness, and clarity, the Ionian mode is used in many folk and popular songs to evoke a sense of well-being.
Aeolian: the natural minor scale. Dive into the depths of emotion with poignant introspection, bringing a sense of longing and depth to your music. This mode is known for its melancholy and introspective qualities, often used to convey sadness, longing, or a sense of mystery.
Dorian: Experience the haunting beauty and mysterious allure of a minor scale with a raised 6th, giving it a unique blend of minor sadness with a touch of brightness.The Dorian mode is prevalent in Celtic and folk music, often used to create an ancient or haunting atmosphere.
Mixolydian: This mode is similar to the major scale but with a lowered seventh, giving it a bluesy, jazzy feel that’s both uplifting and slightly edgy. Find warmth and optimism with the uplifting tones of Mixolydian. "Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd and "Hey Jude" by The Beatles are classic examples of the Mixolydian mode. "Star Wars" and "Back to the Future" both frequently use the Mixolydian mode, which gives them a mystical, adventurous feel.
Lydian: This is a major scale with a raised 4th degree, giving it an ethereal, dreamy, and almost otherworldly sound. Lydian is often used in film scores to create a sense of wonder, magic, or the supernatural.
Phrygian: This is a minor scale with a lowered 2nd degree. Capture the essence of the ancient and exotic with the evocative and stirring Phrygian mode, perfect for adding drama and intrigue. This mode is foundational in flamenco music, adding drama and intensity to the melodies.
