Scales, Ragas, and Riffs This is a collection of exotic scales, ragas, and riffs that can serve as fuel for your creativity. The scales are from indigenous music genres from all over the world. The ragas are melodic fragments primarily of Indian (Asian) origin. The riffs are 4 measure phrases that when played 3 times create a tune over the 12 bar blues format. Please note the adjustments that are indicated for the (usually) 5th measure that creates the harmonic change.
Here are the changes in Bb
Bb Eb Bb Bb Eb Eb Bb Bb F7 Eb Bb Bb
This D is flatted during the IV chord (Eb) during the 5th and 6th measures. Play these riffs against the standard 12 bar blues and you will hear the change.
