Let's say that you will learn anything new everyday, completely. And by new, I mean something totally unknown or even awkward for you. This method is enormously increasing your musical perception, skills and knowledge. After this kind of activities you will be probably feel more expressive in improvisation, also. Doing this everyday should lead you to the major improvement in every musical aspect or skill. Depending on your approach, you can create your own library of licks, scales, chords, progressions songs and more, and everything done that way will be yours, and accommodated fully. Give yourself a year and you will have enough material to record an album... Yours album. Remember that technique takes more time than theory your brain is much more powerful than your muscles are. Modern world has got something so fast in it. Everything is done by the speed of a lightning from cars to the information transfer measured by the speed of your Internet connection. You can access any info trough the smartphone in your pocket within seconds, and it can carry more songs that you will be available to listen in your whole lifetime. But why I am writing this? Because I think that the "speed habit" is a byproduct of the technological advancement. Human body changes slower than modern technology... If you know what I mean. Some of my students have the habit to "want it all, FAST". Learning to sweep in 150 bpm in a month, learning how to improvise in all the modes of the major scale in a week, etc, etc. And this is very destructive to the student's motivation. Just remember to give yourself the time to grow your musical muscles (they are not only physical), and enjoy the process of learning and playing, instead of neverending waiting for the results. Do you know how to play the Egyptian scale? If not google the recipe, and learn it today. One position is enough. Et voila, tomorrow you will be able to improvise in an Egyptian scale. Sounds sweet, let me show you the method. For today, you don't have to google this scale, I will show you it as the example. Draw a pyramid on your forehead now, just in case. The process looks like this: 1. Take something new. I will pick an Egyptian scale, what a suprise! UG plus: remove banner UG plus: remove banner 141 Like LESSONS
