G♯ Lydian Minor
G♯ · A♯ · B♯ · C♯♯ · D♯ · E · F♯
Combining a raised fourth with a flattened sixth and seventh, G♯ 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.
