I like that music. The Lydian augmented 4 against the Mixolydian flat 7 is interesting. I've done next to nothing with Lydian. The continuous pitch change flow, without the noticeable note separation I'm accustomed to in your music is refreshing and new to me.

I am quite surprised that he numbers modes/scale in alphabetical order Dorian=2, rather than the more intuitive circle of 5th order Dorian=3 which makes modes and scales much easier to understand.
Thanks Chris. Very cool indeed. You caused me to investigate scales other than the ones I normally use. This might cause you to buy a cheap Android tablet and SmartChord unlimited ;0) The fretboard map at the bottom is for the instrument and tuning I have selected. You probably don't much care about that for electronic music, but the general music stuff you might find to be useful.
You'll hear Lydian once in a long while, I can think of a few rock songs that use it briefly. The chorus in Bowie's "TVC15," the first song in David Gilmour's first solo album, Ian Anderson seemed to discover Lydian on Passion Play; a few others. Blues is almost always Dorian, lowered 3rd and 7th.
I looked for that app on iOS, can't find it, both my Android phones died from expanding batteries.
One really interesting scale, six notes, comes from taking the arpeggios of two chords a tritone apart and combining the notes, like C and FтЩп:

Some jazz players experiment with stuff like this.

Beato's video is worth the ten minutes.
And thanks for that pointing to this very good page.

I've been playing classical guitar since the mid 70s. I can use those scales. Yeah I can get a latest-model-but-one dirt cheap Android here.
We're hijacking Steve's thread to talk about music theory. Write me at cheopys@gmail.com and let's continue it there.
Right. Serry Steve.
