I just discovered the egypt mode
By Dandy on January 5, 2020 8:25 amThings learnt from this track:
1. I need to start maybe a few days before the deadline instead of "due tomorrow do tomorrow"
2. There is a name for this scale and it's called the Phrygian Major Mode
3. I have a pattern in how I structure songs and I want to change that for the coming weeklybeebles

Really enjoy seeing you here. Really funky keep up the good work.
Fun 
Would fit well with a platformer taking place on the pyramids 
I don't remember much about the scale, but I do remember it was quite nice. So is this song.
Looking further into it, it's the second mode of the major pentatonic scale, so I guess that's why it's so nice. It wouldn't be a phrygian though, those would be heptatonic.
Nice to see some less conventional scales, and chiptunes blend fantastically with the phrygian scale!
Yesss, i love those egyptian feeling modes
great execution
yo this is sassy as all get ouuuut! nice use of the phrygian scale (btw if u use the minor variant it becomes klezmer/gypsy jazz mode)
