Excellent Ben!
This is exactly type of things I was talking about when we talked about MTP. Perfect. Transitions could be smother but I love the fact that you tried out things I taught you and were very creative with them. You are onto something great, I love when I see that in people. Well done. Don't fly to high now with this praise, you will get more assignments to push you further!
I know the transitions weren't too smooth, which was what my "it's not too succesful" was aimed at. But afterall, I only just changed it in 2 minutes, so I geuss it could've used a bit more work. But I can definately see how it can be applied to change key etc.
One thing that has always bothered me a bit is how to make a key change without making it sound too key-change-ish! I think that's the best word I have now.
One lesson that springs to mind is Muris' lydian beginner, where he changes key from E lydian to Bb lydian/B major to C major. It doesn't sound too off here and I do wonder why. I know the last note in the last E lydian bar is a A#, with an E11+ beneath, I think. Next chord is Bb major.
Could you explain a little about why this is working and if it is possible to make an equally smooth transition to any other key?
