D♯ Lydian Minor
D♯ · E♯ · F♯♯ · G♯♯ · A♯ · B · C♯
Combining a raised fourth with a flattened sixth and seventh, D♯ Lydian Minor sets Lydian's bright top against a darker upper register. The clash between the raised fourth and the flat sixth is its whole character. A specialist dominant-chord colour in jazz and fusion, and an evocative one in film writing.
