Pieces Of Eight: Mysteries Of The Octatonic Scale

Not all scales are created equal. Some are more interesting than others, and perhaps one of the most interesting is the Octatonic Scale, with 8 notes forming a repeating pattern just full of strange properties. Also known as the Diminished Scale, it's a fascinating look into a deeply structured but very different harmonic world. What does it do? How do you use it? What hides within its depths? Well, as it turns out, pretty much everything.
