@alfbarroso A7 would resolve to D(m or maj) Em7 (dorian/locrian) is the ii of A7. Gm7 (melodic) is the ii of C7, which could be a way to resolve to D also. Bbm7 (melodic) is a way of playing the altered scale. Dbm7 would be the ii chord for Gb7. Which would lead to the parallel key to D, which is B (assuming D is major, it's interchangeable though in this context). This would be a way to explain it without all the whole-half mumbo-jumbo :) That doesn't have much tonal context to me.

so for subs over an altered chord: down a tone and then play minor modes from roots a minor third up from last?
-
@jacobe888 That's why they cal it "atered" ;-)
-
the reason is that over altered chords you can play all notes. 12 of them remember? ;-)

i don´t understand... Which scale is he using when he says "subtitute A7#5 (chord) with an Em7 line form"... what is a Em7 line form? Is he talking about some sort of Dorian mode or what?

Pat refers to kind of 'just minor' when he talks about 'minor lines' ..dorian, harmonic, aieolian, dims as far i know & have heard on this film...

It's taken me years of thinking about Pat's system to understand that the minor-subs over a dominant chord are minor 3ds apart: over A7#5 = Em7, Gm7, Bbm7, Dbm7. I'm sure many of you know this already, and the fact that it comes from his idea of starting with a diminished chord, lowering any of its tones 1/2 step, to yield the 4 resulting dom7 chords.

@Gminor7
Yes, I thought that too. It's possible he thinks that way imho... Since Bb whole-half dimished scale contains chords A7, C7 Eb7 & F#7 and so forth A7 = Em7 C7 =Gm7 Eb7 = Bbm7 F#7 = Dm7. Allthought A7#5 is very tensioned chord which gives possibility to play very out out outly ;-)

Would somebody can say what the theoretical explanation for the Dbm over A7, besides it's TOOO WIERD? Man, it's the proto-Garzone!!
