B Lydian Dominant
B · C♯ · D♯ · E♯ · F♯ · G♯ · A
The fourth mode of melodic minor, B Lydian Dominant has both a raised fourth and a flat seventh, so it's Lydian and dominant at once. It matches the overtone series closely, which is why it sounds bright rather than tense despite the alteration. The definitive scale for 7♯11 chords, and a signature sound of jazz fusion.
