Notes: Root, 2nd, 3rd, ♯4th, 5th, 6th, 7th. Dreamy, magical, otherworldly.

The Lydian scale is one of the most useful tools in music — Lydian mode is major with a raised 4th — it sounds magical, dreamy, and otherworldly. Dreamy, magical, otherworldly. The Root, 2nd, 3rd, ♯4th, 5th, 6th, 7th pattern gives the scale its distinctive character, and that character is what shapes everything from melody to harmony to mood.

Producers, songwriters, and beat-makers reach for the Lydian scale when they want a specific emotional payload. It is most common in Film score, Jazz, Prog rock, and the scale's tonal flavor is what defines those genres.
