E Lydian
Last night I was playing around with the E lydian scale, which consist of the notes: E F# G# A# B C# D# E
It is basically the E major scale with a sharpened 4th. It has very tranquil tonal qualities and after dancing around with the chords and licks in this scale, I found that it made me very sleepy and tired, as if being lullabyed before bedtime. Very interesting!
Joe uses this scale often, as well as other modes, and you'll notice the sound when you're jamming with it.
