Hi there.

I'm having a music projekt, where me and two classmates work with Red Hot Chili Peppers. We have chosen to analyse the song: "Around the world". We would like to comment on the scale its build in but we can't figure it out :-(. Need some help (if you have more to add you are more than welcome)


Thank you :-)

First thing you need to do is find the key it is written in. Everything else will come from there.

Those chords are all in the key of D minor. To find the scale notes you just lay out all the notes of the chords and put them in order starting from D

Dm = D F A
BbMaj7 = Bb D F A
A7 = A C# E G
Bb sus2 = Bb C F

Total notes are
D E F G A Bb C/ C# D

These make the scales of
D natural minor > D E F G A Bb C D
and D harmonic minor > D E F G A Bb C# D
