To celebrate the completion of Improvising with Modes & Loops – For Ambient & Shoegaze Guitar, I’d like to share one of the visual resources from the course with the whole community. This Dorian Modal Palette explores Dorian not simply as a scale, but as an emotional environment — a space somewhere between darkness and hope, often associated with spacious melodies, earthy grooves, and atmospheric improvisation. Personally, I often hear Dorian as a warm, grooving and psychedelic sound world, evoking desert landscapes, hypnotic repetition and late-night modal explorations. How do you hear Dorian? I’d love to know what images, emotions or musical landscapes this mode evokes for you. Happy exploring 🎸🌌
