The ONE Note That Instantly Makes Your Solos Sound Modern

To make your solos sound more modern, you can experiment with the intervals in your arpeggios. Instead of playing predictable lines, you can mix up the intervals. For instance, instead of playing C to E, you can play C to D. This makes the interval selection more diverse and the sound more modern. You can apply this principle to other chord types as well. Additionally, you can add a note a half step below wherever you're starting to add more interest to your solos.
