A lot of what you're calling modulation is really just migrating from chord to chord in a given key. For example, the 8/1 Tweezer goes from Amin to D to C . All those chords and scales contain the same notes (G A B C D E F#). That's the scale for Gmajor. So they're shifting "modes" but not keys. Dorian to Myxolydian to Lydian. So is this really modulation at all if the 7 note scale never changes?
You can call it migrating from chord to chord too. We're hearing the same thing, just defining terms differently. Also: that pitch collection does change in subtle ways (F vs F# mainly) in a move from A min > D > C (Lydian mode never wants to stick around for long, etc)
Score: 5
