This is my practice routine for getting altered dominant (#5, #9 chords specifically) rootless closedvoicing chords, and diminished wholetone scales (sometimes referred to as the 7th mode of the melodic minor scale) under my fingers and in my brain. You can get such a hip sound in your playing if you understand how these notes function in each key.

If you'd like to get the worksheet that shows each chord in both inversions, as well as the fingerings to every scale, click here: http://www.aimeenolte.com/pdfsworksh...
