I wrote Lydian Lullaby several years ago. Mostly octaves using the E Lydian Scale. I prerecorded some feedback and a basic beat on my BOSS Loop station. The primary influence for this piece was probably Steve Vai--not his shredding (which I can't imitate), but his melodic use of the Lydian mode. As always, there are a few mistakes here. I'm always surprised at how difficult it is to get a perfect performance filmed.
