With Melodic Minor that is Lydian Dominant..
With Harmonic Minor Phrygian Dominant..
I don't know if these scales / Modes have a stronger Favour..
Or I have heard them more..
I never started to get the sound into my ears properly until I connected with these modes..
Super Locrian / Altered followed on with Lydian Dominant..
It was often as the V chord of a Minor Blues I heard them as Phrygian Dominant and Super Locrian....
I started to hear what should go there..
The Lydian Dominant I heard as a Flat II thing against the Dominant 7 flat 5 chord..
I realised that Flat II chord was like a C 7 Shape with the root moved a Tritone,,leading me to Super Locrian also..
The iv minor to I Major I hear as Harmonic Major..
Although my Knowledge of that scale is thin..
Beautiful Sound though..
Melodic Minor itself I hear as having a Brooding John Barry James Bond thing going on..
Cool. Harmonic minor was invented to be played in its 5th mode, ie Phrygian dominant, for playing over the V chord to show what a proper V chord in a minor piece sounds like. It’s just that the scale is named and practised from tonic to tonic, which makes people think it’s a real thing, which it isn’t really. Or wasn’t, I should say. So that’s good that you hear it in phrygian dominant mode, you’re supposed to
A bit like what Claude’s doing, except he’s using major-minor scale in tonic position.
Lydian dominant and altered are also v useful as well of course.
