Ben Nolan - Daniele Gottardo Competition Entry

[Symbton]

I keep coming back to this video for inspiration man...What scale are you using and what key?

[bennolanman]

@Symbton wow man, im so honoured :) Well since the chord progression is F, G, Em, Am, I stay within the parent key, which is C Major, if you know your scale theory you can work out the parent key from the chord progression.

The trick is to use the corresponding modes for each chord

@bennolanman

As I told you over pm before haha, I've only played for about a year.

So I've just recently started scraping on the surface of theory.

All I know is like E minor and alittle C minor.

Also practicing the lydian scale.

[Symbton]

Wow, you're fucking amazing man!
