Have been semi-addicted to this track for past year. At first it was the the 2 chord simplicity... But after jamming many times to this song, it does not get boring, and in fact somehow seen to get more complex and powerful. This ain't just another backing track. ❤
My jam band fell apart quite a while ago and this has revived my desire to practice. It could never be the same as feeding off everyone taking turns improvising, but this is a close second. Thank you so much for producing and sharing this. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
thanx so much man! I had and will have more fun with this jam track i really appreciate how you have put the notes up as well it really helps to find where you are, a really nice track to just sit in with and explore the groove thanx again man!
Muito boa aula, vai direto ao ponto deste assunto que também abre para os Chord Melody, coisa que par mim parecia magica e agora estudando desta maneira, fica bem mais próximo e fácil aquela "magia" que estava tão longe há pouco tempo atrás. Valeu professor.
You're absolutely "Wright" ( pun intended ) . I've played "Any Colour..." live as part 2 of the 2-for with "Us And Them", and listening to this, yes, I can hear the late great Rick Wright ( or, me when playing it live ) noodling his way up and down his synth with echo on this one. Good ear, my friend. Great tune. Here's a link of some dude doing "Great Gig In The Sky" on solo acoustic guitar. ruclips.net/video/jcxMmWUg-Vg/видео.html I never thought I'd ever see someone work that song out, especially with such spot-on note-for-note reproduction of the original. Anyway, just saying, I hadn't noticed the similarity until you said it, and then it hit me as obvious; and like I said, You're absolutely "Wright"!
Me too before man, but the reason it sound different is because it starts on the second note and chord of the scale of C major, which we call the dorian scale, To understand it easily, try to picture out the scale of C major but starting on the D minor, that's the dorian And learn more modes cuz it may be hard but it will be useful in making guitar solos, it makes you explore more things, I've been playing for 4 years, yet I've only come this serious to modes, Keep on going man, just keep practicing, and you can find some tutorials online for it, For you to sound like the "mode" you're playing, don't think of what scale are you, just be mindful of the notes of the chords, example like in the video, Dm7 in the scale of dorian so play the notes of the chord, and for it to sound "dorian" add some few licks on the dorian scale, but for you not to get lost don't forget to play notes from the chord And also on the G7 on the chord in the vid it's called mixolydian, you can find online on how to play them i know you know already but just struggling to play, I've been there so keep going, don't stop
Excellent backing track with notational information. This is perfect for any student who is practicing scales, modes and chord tones while improvising.
Santana used some of these Lead in Dorian ideas in Oye Como Va, Black Magic Woman, both songs were written by others but he injected a Jazz Latin Blues Fusion Dorian element
Post it, if you can, please! I'm trying to get my carnatic trained violin player friend into scales/modes so we could jam! He can use your inspiration!
@skeeter bodeen I fully concur. Definitely top three, and I might put it higher if I could decide between them. Hell, I didn't know I had a favorite band until someone said:"you're stuck on an island, you can only have one album for however long, maybe till the bitter end, what is it?". I said, without hesitation: "Pink Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon" and "The Wall"", because how the hell could I choose between them? Although Steely Dan's, all four of them, greatest hits records were my very next thought.
this backing track is amazing ! im late to work cause all the "out" notes sound so good with this track. needless to say my boss won't know what i mean when i say ive been bending g flats into g's all morning
There aren't really any "out" notes. Only the E, which is the 3rd of C and 5th of Am, so it always sounds right anyway. So yeah, it definitely makes it a super smooth jam to practice your phrasing. Literally every note sounds like a chord tone. And half the time, any note is a chord tone. It makes your ear just accept the other half.
I just found something cool while I was goofing on this one. Try a Bm7b5 as a sub for the Dm, and then run a Locrian pattern in B against it. (I know everybody gets out the silver crucifix and puts the string of garlic around their neck when you mention Locrian), But try it. The harmony works because a Bm7b5 is a Dm6 with the Dorian 6 in the bass, and Bm7b5 is also just a rootless G9. You can even hold it over both of the regular chords, and you'll hear some cool harmony as the Bm7b5 hangs and the other chords change under it. (oblique movement) Fmaj7 add 9 to Gmaj7 add 9 also works as subs over the Dm to G7, and it gives you a kind of Mc Coy Tyner piano voicing like John Coltrane's "My Favorite Things" There's a lot more to Dorian.than Santana and spaghetti westerns, and you can use Locrian for other things besides death metal. ...... I just now found these new ideas, and I thought I'd let everybody know. It was a happy accident.
I barely managed to play that chord but at first I was like "urgh what?" and then I played it a few more times and then I could hear it. So weird! Music theory gets mad
I apologized for my ignorance but could someone explain me why the key is C mayor and how it’s posible to be played with a dorian mode even tho is a minor scale?
I'll give you a good tip, slow simple BT without a derping around bass and melodies are best for internalizing and learning scales This would be even better at 0.75x the speed, dont look for pleasing BT but practical one
because the D Dorian mode is a part of the C Major scale. You might call D Dorian the 2nd position of the C Major scale, and the d-minor pentatonic scale works with D-Dorian. You can also play the C-Major scale over this track, abbreviated with the fifth position of the d-minor pentatonic scale if you wanted too.
@@VWALLSHENANIGANS First of all thank you very much and second, does playing a similar dorian or pentatonic scale work if its the second of any major key? like for instance If i was in G major could I play a A minor similarly?
@@lakryth8741 i think whats important to note is the order of the positions. It doesnt matter if you start on a G Major, F#, B, or A, if you start in the Ionian position (the major scale,) the next position down the fretboard is dorian, followed by phrygeon, mixolidian, Aelioan (minor,) then back to Ionian. The penatonics have there own 5 positions. The D Dorian position, and D minor penatonic scale just both happen to work and be good suggestions for this one
Can i use this on my channel if i ever make one? It real laid back and i like that. You can have all the profit if there is any. We should make a contract
Hi, the listed chords are misleading a bit. The chords , as played in the video, are Dm7 and G7 (not DM7, DF#AC#). The notes are correct but the chord (DM7) listed isn't. My guess is that you capitalized the "M" by mistake. Great track though, I love the Ska break!
Love your music n tracks. Can i use your track to upload my improvisation on you tube and give you all the credit. I do this for fun. I only have 11 subscribers on my you tube channel.🎸🎶🎸

Keep coming back to this one. Love it. So deceptively simple and yet offering so many possibilities.

You can also use Lidian b7 on the G7 chord and D melodic minor as well on the Dm7
Hitting that B over that G7 is so satisfying. Loving the Santana dorian vibes.
beautiful track
The percussion sounds so good on this !
thanx so much man! I had and will have more fun with this jam track i really appreciate how you have put the notes up as well it really helps to find where you are, a really nice track to just sit in with and explore the groove thanx again man!
This is a really fun one to jam around with to find your phrases in Dm Penta and D Dorian. I love this groove
Cheers, really good track to jam to. Just getting to grips with D dorian so will work on that then try tracking the chord changes.
Man I can jam on this all day ...oh wait a minute I have been..
Thanks!
Very chill Floyd jam to escape into. Much love...
Muito boa aula, vai direto ao ponto deste assunto que também abre para os Chord Melody, coisa que par mim parecia magica e agora estudando desta maneira, fica bem mais próximo e fácil aquela "magia" que estava tão longe há pouco tempo atrás. Valeu professor.
Also great for practicing some arpeggios as well!
Brings to mind "Any color you like" by Pink Floyd

love from india
I've listened to a lot of backing tracks on RUclips and this is my favorite so far.
Man - today me on guitar and my 7 year old on piano - had a blast with Dorian scale .! Thank you so much !
I think it's the heavy drums that make this such a good jam track.
This is so easy to bend some strings too..
Makes me sound good.
Thanks
Do you like nickleback?
@@mindcontrol67 i do
@@jb-ik8sj 💩😥

Is smooth operator in Dorian ?reminded me that song also the blue hotel chris Isaac
Really cool groove. Fun to improvise, solo and just noodle having fun. My wife loved it so it is a keeperThanks for posting!
Dude, sweet backing track. Super easy to play along with. Love the groove to it.
This is a really good example of variation of a 2chord vamp.. nice and well done 👍👍
would you mind explaining the bass run at 3:20? its stuck my head!! I wanna know how to play it
Use your ear
Tyler Keegan yeah I’m trying. I haven’t played long enough to be able to completely do that yet. I can get some notes but not the entire sequence
kristin martin try singing the bass line while hearing it. That helps a lot.
@@northhallbabe13 so what is the bass ? an arpeggio ?
DM7 i thought in d dorian d is always minor 🤔 , please correct me if I'm wrong
Me too before man, but the reason it sound different is because it starts on the second note and chord of the scale of C major, which we call the dorian scale,
To understand it easily, try to picture out the scale of C major but starting on the D minor, that's the dorian
And learn more modes cuz it may be hard but it will be useful in making guitar solos, it makes you explore more things, I've been playing for 4 years, yet I've only come this serious to modes,
Keep on going man, just keep practicing, and you can find some tutorials online for it,

Sounds good with d Dorian licks Thanks for posting it helped my practice session
Is it a Dm7 instead ?
Just what I needed today. It has a pink Floydish vibe

This is my favorite track to jam to at the moment, and will always be one of my favorites. Great emotion from a two chord progression.
Yep !!! On my Jamz Playlist for about 2yrs now... Top 3 grooves / BPM for warming up to shred.

it helps me to play lydian and improvise on it with the bass
Absolutely superb jamming track. Wonderful stuff. Well done and thanks for uploading.
so everytime a chord is played, i can use the chord notes from within that chord and the suggested scales. would that make for a pleasant experience?
Little tips -> you can also use the A Aeolian :D (as it's part of the D Dorian)
Absolutely love this backing track! Greetings from Singapore!
As a drummer first, I really appreciate that kick drum.
this is definitely the best backing track on youtube man, for guitar and for rapping
That is currently my fav backing track... Love it!!! Thanx 🎸😁👍🏻✌🏻🤘🏻✅
Good track man, just listen to it was relaxing for me. Keep it coming.

...... I just now found these new ideas, and I thought I'd let everybody know.
It was a happy accident.
Nice ideas. Maybe you could also play F lydian over the Fmaj7 add 9 to Gmaj7 add 9?
@@Wout1337 You absolutely could, and while you're at it, the F Lydian also sounds cool over Dm6.
I barely managed to play that chord but at first I was like "urgh what?" and then I played it a few more times and then I could hear it. So weird! Music theory gets mad
Thanks for this -- really helpful!
Nice Track! Great quality Audio..:)
how could you tell its a key of c major, based on those two chords??
how do you know which minor scale to use when its in a major key
Analyze the chord progression and play the corresponding minor modes that work with it
I apologized for my ignorance but could someone explain me why the key is C mayor and how it’s posible to be played with a dorian mode even tho is a minor scale?
Just think of C as the I in a 2-5-1 turnaround. Jazz is full of them.👍
I'll give you a good tip, slow simple BT without a derping around bass and melodies are best for internalizing and learning scales
This would be even better at 0.75x the speed, dont look for pleasing BT but practical one
I took your advice for my new track
Lovely track .... thank you very much
Awesome track for beginner like me, thanks a lot, this one is easy to play along and improvise with different feel.
Beginer playing modes already hmmmm?
@@stebeatle4965 Oh no, they're upping the stakes where should we go now?
Why does Am pent also sound right to me ?
Key of this backing track is C major and all the notes in the Am pentatonic scale are also in the C major scale.
mark friedem the e minor pentatonic as well, plus you can also use the b blues scale without the natural 5th (diminished pentatonic i guess, idk)
cause Am and D dorian are relative scales
@@yOsHi180596 thank you for your answer...and now that I'm a bit nore educated in modes and chord groupings, my question seems a bit stupid
Can someone explain why you play D scales over a C major key here and it works?
D Dorian is the second mode of the C major scale, so all the notes in a D Dorian scale are the same as a C major
I Jam with Youjam !🎶🎶🎶
I tried jamming to this one today and it felt like, Black Magic Woman which is cool.
¡Excelente! Muchas gracias
Idk why but this track is so fun to play to... thank you!
Great stuff. Many thanks. So much fun with two chords.
so flippin' groovy. Love it.
Great track...and with a proper ending, to boot! Thanks for posting this!
What makes the progression "Dorian"? its still just chords from C. Is it that it starts from D (which obviously is the Dorian mode root)?
The B in the G / G7 chord?
i used this for oractis d dorian pentatonic scale
Kinda new to theory, can someone help me understand why a d minor pentatonic scale sounds good in the key of c major?
because the D Dorian mode is a part of the C Major scale. You might call D Dorian the 2nd position of the C Major scale, and the d-minor pentatonic scale works with D-Dorian.

Dm7 ?
