The following chord progressions are strong Mixolydian progressions. It's best to think in terms of triads when using the specific chords necessary to portray Mixolydian tonality. However, when these chords are extended to their diatonic 7th's, 9th's, and 13th's, a very contemporary flavor and sound will emerge.

The Mixolydian Mode, as with all other modes, has it's own unique characteristics. It is beneficial for all guitar players to learn (or remember) these characteristics. The small details can, sometimes, make the difference between a great guitar solo (or chord progression) vs. a mediocre guitar solo or performance. But this is just the beginning. We're barely scraping the surface here. As any of my students would testify, the rabbit hole gets deeper and deeper. However, their actual education gets easier and easier. The application becomes automatic for them.

The Mixolydian Mode - A Guitar Scale Rich In Flavor

1) I major (C major) progressing to the bVII major (Bb major), progressing back to the I major (C major).

4) I major (C major) progressing to the V minor (G minor), progressing to the I major (C major).

In order for a true Mixolydian tonality to emerge, the tonic note must be established, the major 3rd scale tone must be voiced, and the lowered 7th scale tone must be used. Otherwise, Mixolydian tonality is not authentic.

6) I major (C major) progressing to the V minor (G minor), progressing to the IV major (F major), progressing to the V minor (G minor), progressing to the I major (C major).

There are many guitarists who play extremely well. However, the truth be known, there are, most likely, giant gaps in their understanding of key signatures, key changes, chord construction, scale application, intervals, substitution principles, and much, much more. Does this make them any less of a musician (in their own realm) than anyone else? Of course not. Could they become better as a result of a pro-end education? Absolutely yes.

7) I major (C major) progressing to the V minor (G minor), progressing to the bVII major (Bb major), progressing to the V minor (G minor), progressing to the I major (C major).

Something as simple as the Mixolydian Mode, it's analysis and understanding, has the potential to launch an entire new desire to progress as a guitarist. It's amazing how much music can result from simple concentration and practice. As a player, there's good and there's great. The difference is the decision to progress.

The Mixolydian Mode is a great guitar scale to use against dominant types of chords. In essence, the Mixolydian Mode is a major scale that contains a minor 7th interval between the root note of the scale and it's 7th degree. This minor 7th interval gives the Mixolydian Mode it's dominant flavor. In a traditional major scale, the 7th degree interval is a major 7th not a minor 7th degree. Hence, dominant.

While others are losing valuable time on the standard old books of C, F and G, this is your opportunity to step directly into the future with a guitar method that is as flexible as your own personality and as vast as your imagination will allow.

2) I major (C major) progressing to the bVII major (Bb major), progressing to the V minor (G minor), progressing to the IV major (F major), progressing back to the I major (C major).

For those of you contemplating guitar lessons, make sure that you are well matched with your guitar instructor. Define your goals and don't waste time. If your goal is to play a few songs and strum a few chords, then almost anyone can help you with that goal. If your goal is to progress beyond your favorite artist, then you should aim for the best-of-the-best for instruction and educational material (theory and application).

Until next time, practice, practice, practice.

3) I major (C major) progressing to the IV major (F major), progressing to the bVII major (Bb major), progressing to the I major (C major).

There are some general rules applicable to Mixolydian chords and progressions. For example, one must always use the I major chord (this establishes the tonic home-base for the listener), and the V minor or the bVII major chord(s) must be used so that the b7th scale tone is actually sounded. For this particular article, we will be analyzing the C Mixolydian Mode (scale) and it's corresponding tonality (chords and scale tones).

5) I major (C major) progressing to the V minor (G minor), progressing to the VI minor (A minor), progressing to the IV major (F major), progressing to the I major (C major).

It's absolutely refreshing and empowering to approach an authentic playing situation with confidence. How is this achieved? Education and practice. There's mental and there's physical. One without the other is incomplete.

Make no mistake about it; if your goal is to understand the entire guitar fingerboard and experience an incredible new mechanical and theoretical freedom as a guitar player, then Ultra Guitar Method is an absolute must.

Note that in all of the above referenced chord progressions, the tonic was always established. In other words, the listener was given a strong starting point for tonality and a strong return to the tonality. Always remember to define a strong tonality for the audience. Subconsciously, a listener doesn't enjoy being left up-in-the-air musically. Give them something to hold on to.

The navigation is very simple, and you shouldn't have a problem with it at all. It's all broken down, and is very user friendly. Enjoy the new interface, and enjoy the availability of the new music, and the classics.

There are a couple of steps that you need to take to make sure that you have an easy experience. Make sure you have the room on your hard drive for the movies and the music. A big complaint with the normal download sites are that lack of selection, and your media player has a large problem with the navigation, and it can be hard to find everything. You won't have to worry about that again, find your music, listen to whatever you'd like. In your folders, make sure that you create separate names and separate folders so managing your music and movies would be a lot easier. Find your movies and your TV shows as well, with the same ease as the music.

When downloading or looking for music, it's easy to find a site that will download songs and movies, but unfortunately not all of them have the selection you want. You can just point and click to get whatever you want, and not worry if something is in, and not worry about individual costs. Some companies let you download individual songs, but the cost and selection is annoying, or on the other hand, pay a flat fee, but never be able to keep the songs, and once again their selection is a bit of a pain.
