Having so much fun learning about modes, cool sounds!

Essentially that's correct, (in that none of it was wrong ) - he's relating each mode to a "parent" major scale. But if you want to get beyond a basic level of understanding modes you'll need to move on fairly quickly from that to just dealing with the modes as existing in their own right, independant from any "parent". In particular you'll want to get beyond playing over just a drone, and onto some chord progressions.

Fortunately modes have been discussed a lot around here: When you're ready for that next step, these will help:
