Q: If I have a bassline that uses the notes D A C and G, what scales besides D minor pentatonic can I use to solo over it and get a sort of psychedelic feel?  Sorry if this is a dumb question, I'm mainly a drummer and am better with rhythms than I am with melody
A: i think you need to just spend time with the instrument (not drums, the melodic one you are using), and get used to ALL the notes, especially the way they sound, separately, together, and any other way you can think of. that's pretty much the only way to figure out what you're doing. and wawzo it works
