@Byron Zeke Instablaster =)

[@byronzeke1826]

@Kingsley Lincoln thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and im in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@byronzeke1826]

@Kingsley Lincoln It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D Thanks so much you saved my ass!

[@kingsleylincoln339]

@Byron Zeke You are welcome :D

[@cathybroadus4411]

That solo is just everything to me. I watch it over and over. I notice every detail. He turns his head and that lets me know I must get that level of mastery to play that rhythm.

[@mlarry90]

Nice to see this comes from Quebec city. One year ago, at this time of the year I was in Quebec on vacation with my girlfriend. I celebrated my 29th birthday there. Greetings from Montevideo, Uruguay.

[@BigBlackGnome]

Wait tu es en train de me dire que les meilleurs backing track que j'ecoute son du quebec?! No way c'est vraiment nice ca😂cheer bro🎉🎉

[@Wout1337]

After getting into jamming on backing tracks a few years ago, I must say this is the one track I have jammed on the most. Thanks a lot for uploading, and killer solo at the start.

[@brettdalelio9091]

Wow.. I think dorian phrasing just TOTALLY clicked for me over the course of these 12 minutes. Thank you, perfect tones for figuring out what sounds great in passing, and getting comfortable moving around

[@JM-my2wf]

Your presentation of backing tracks is excellent and the noodling you do in the beginning of each track is sooooooooo inspiring and has taught me new ideas (probably the intent)... anyways thanks for being here, you are much appreciated!

[@countblue]

The secret Carlos Santana chord sequence. I love that Am D stuff. Evil Ways, Oye Como va and all that. In my youth I played lots of that on Aramboul Lake in Goa as rhythmguitarist. Makes really nice far expendable endless session backgrounds.

[@sethaaronshumaker6184]

YO. I’m a big metal guy so when the music drops and it’s just the drums it sounds cool as hell to shred over that.

[@QuistJam]

YEAH!! Awesome

[@redrock1963]

I love the space to discover - a way in and a way out....then some repetitive triplets and maybe a big spray up and then down and then maybe sit on the groove with some octaves. Thx Quist.

[@shoecheta]

This is marvelous. Am jamming on an Indian classical raga on this. Thank you

[@ShredTraining]

I've been using your tracks with students for years, cheers Quist!

[@pechugaslarou3433]

200 K! Congratulations and thanks a lot!!

[@QuistJam]

thank YOU! Happy jamming :)

[@MrTehnoobshowfan]

Quist you always do those solos before the song starts, and I get it’s supposed to spark ideas and give the player a starting point, but in reality you’re just showing me I suck 😂😂

[@QuistJam]

Noooooooo

[@MrTehnoobshowfan]

Quist getting better every day man. Thanks for posting these! 🙌🏻

[@Hail2Russia]

Easily one of my favorites that you've put out so far! Great stuff man.

[@QuistJam]

awesome that's great to hear!!!

[@jeffjohnson7381]

Love the jam tracks keep them coming in all styles jazz and blues 👍🎶🎸🎹

[@devonnech9500]

dude...you have got tha steez my brother

[@stratplayer2]

I love all your tracks but especially the modal stuff. I would love a 3-4 minute video of u letting it fly over this track. Please consider my request. The people want it!

[@QuistJam]

Thanks... I hear you!!

[@Danumurti18]

Over this track (A dorian keys), you can play B minor blues scale (1,#2,4,#4,5,b7,7,1) as long as you'll resolve it to B phyrgian. Same as C lydian, you can play C major blues scale which is same as A minor blues scale. D mixolydian, you can also play D major blues scale (1,2,#2,3,5,#5,6,1), as long as you'll resolve it to the original scale and remember don't bending too much when playing that "imposition" blues scale. E aeolian -> E minor blues. F# locrian -> well except the locrian, you should stay with locrian, but you can add chromaticism from b7,7,1. G ionian -> G major blues. I learn this from Greg Howe, no wonder he can improvise that fast, he mostly just playing blues scale (only with imposition).

[@prismsedits2320]

Jamming in the same mode in the same city my friend. Keep up the good work.

[@dayglo98]

The groove factor of that beat really supercharges my learning of Dorian jamming ! Thanks a lot

[@QuistJam]

awesome!!!!

[@WhiteCranK]

well said :)

[@tonyswaney6969]

Playing fast jazzy leads kinda cool

[@howieg3e568]

Merci Beaucoup from Toronto....tight jam track!

[@QuistJam]

thanks, enjoy!

[@tallred2012]

QuistJam, I really appreciate the jam tracks!! Thank you!

[@QuistJam]

awesome, enjoy!

[@iamkenman101]

Jacob, very cool track. Love the drums. The beat inspired me to pick to my bass and mess around with a bass solo. I have a short scale ''64 Fender Mustang that I haven't played for months. Looking forward to rocking out on guitar as well. Thank you, Sir! QuistJam - Only the best tracks are here!

[@QuistJam]

Thanks - that's so good to hear!!!!!

[@rzegorzgil4664]

Jacob-help me please. Oggi suonando a Milano due volte sono rimasto senza youtube-sia con funk in gm che con Am-D. "Am-D "-complimenti caro, come permette armonichetta diatonica cosi sono tuo copiatore. Stammi bene. Gregorio

[@Derole0306]

great backing, fun to jam with !

[@dimitrilebel]

Pretty funny that I'm browsing through your tracks to jam while I'm in a hotel room in Quebec city myself ;-)

[@QuistJam]

+Dimitri LeBel haha that's awesome!!

[@mraggrovator]

Sweet I would love to hear you play over the whole of your backing tracks.

[@QuistJam]

Nice track. Haven't seen this frame for a track in years.

[@QuistJam]

Great thanks

[@DaveShichmanMusic]

Long one! I dig it!

[@TheNoBSZone]

I love the jams a lot, however I have one request. Put your solo at the end. I hate when I hear someone else's solo first because I want my unbiased notes to come without anyone else pointing me in a direction.

[@stratplayer2]

If u want to use a Quist track to upload a video, which many of us do, it's best to have the solo at the beginning because then your video won't suddenly cut out at the end, you can have a nice fade out to ur video. Not to mention we want to hear Quist play!

[@guitarplayer2846]

I'm fairly certain Quist solos at at the beginning to inspire and give an example.. I definitely see your point though. I'd like to see/hear Quist solo for 10-15 minutes, with one of his tracks.

[@waltzguy14151]

Sounds like a personal issue

[@musicprodave]

thats so true. I just hate that they always do that. I usually dont play to their tracks because of that.

[@mindcontrol67]

Dr Angry.

[@blazingax05]

love this, love dorian

[@guillermomiguensdiaz555]

a lot of nice passing tones here, a lot of b5

[@ericvirely4978]

DORIAN B2 or G melodic minor scale is a good choice !!!!!!! thank quist french fan

[@guillermomiguensdiaz555]

ye, e blues is a definitive choice, depends on progression, some progressions admit more than a passing tone, nice the scales you say, i play them a lot over dorian progressions, since g melodic minor adds one note to g major blues or e blues, and B dorian b2 flat the third or C# to C the passing tone here will be G#

[@iansaylor1955]

Great stuff

[@rzegorzgil4664]

Devi tenere presente che con gli tuoi accompagnamenti mi sento quasi, quasi un egoista. Scusate se ho parlato di Charlie Parker. Suono da solo. Auguri. Gregorio

[@chrisforever1255]

Good as always! Thanks a lot!

[@QuistJam]

Thanks... enjoy!!

[@Quicksilver_Cookie]

I like these long tracks. Good for experimenting with sounds and techniques. I just put it on, and forget about it. Manage to switch guitars and fiddle with pedals/amp knobs in the process :D

[@QuistJam]

NICE!!! Really great to hear :)

[@markopolo2224]

thanks

[@johnnyborton4609]

Et je claque ma basse en jam ! Thank's Mr Quist

[@alexwhite8236]

For those that need a little jumpstart…from my knowledge you can just mix g major and A minor pentatonic and get some funky solos

[@SteveStockmalMusic]

Yes !!! G Major IS A Dorian. Exactly the same thing. When you play G Major you’re playing notes 1-8; but when start on the 2nd notes do end on the 9th it Dorian !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@dyllanusher1379]

I see the fretboard a bit different, it's refreshing! thanks for the track!

[@tarkanyilmaz6905]

so the key is G therefore i can also play Em pentatonic right? it feels allright

[@planepantsgames1791]

Woke Up This Morning, got yourself a Dorian Vamp....

[@autocrow]

Man, that was freakin' WEIRD!! (no not the track. what I played to it) Lol, but that's what it's all about. Experimenting.. . : )

[@pablodelangel4496]

No esta en D dorico, esta en A dorico, ya que se tiene que usar la escala de G mayor. saludos.

[@QuistJam]

Correct - A dorian ✅

[@badenrodriguesz8693]

Could I Get This On 90bpm

[@nickbellinger1047]

what can you say about a and d ....good practice track thanks man

[@rzegorzgil4664]

Jacob-ho letto il commento di Alex e mi dispiace per te. Un shake di banana e fragola non diventa mai cioccolato. Auguri. Gregorio

[@DidNotReadInstructions]

I love to think of this whole thing in a G major scale and jam across the whole fretboard in G major using all it's modes to add flavor. Makes it so easy. Sure in A Dorian But that's the same. Also, one could jam in the C major scale all over the neck for a unique sound too. It all works. That F sharp adds a bit to the mix, doesn't it??

[@luisaguirre7849]

So A Dorian means the song is in the key of G right? Since Dorian you start on the 2?

[@chrischoir3594]

great song nice paul.. !!! What are you playing through?

[@QuistJam]

that was straight to Logic, thru an ooold au-25 edirol

[@thematrix257]

Could someone explain why I can play in D Mixolydian , and it just sounds better than I play in exactly A Dorian note progression.

[@QuistJam]

D mixo contains the exact same 7 notes as A Dorian :)

[@pawemajewski3215]

I played a little A dorian and then I started to bend the Cs slightly and then added some flat Es... and then I got scared so I hid in the box...

[@sbennettyt]

So what scale do I use over Am D to make it sound Dorian? I'm guessing G? Help me out here.

[@TheSlaSh1411]

What picks you using Quist? Great track.

[@JamesTarghet]

I'm curious too

[@QuistJam]

Jim dunlop... black, with rugged grip 1mm Nylon

[@QuistJam]

I use these picks too www.quistorama.com/music

[@wbh2767]

Classic!!!

[@QuistJam]

HAPPY JAMMING!

[@Kyubiwan]

key: a minor (with half-pitched-up submediant note)

[@ngtyt]

or just A dorian xD

[@jamesmolloy5350]

So A dorian then

[@NKN82]

Why you doin so weird rythm? I cant get is it fast or slow? feels like both at the same time.

[@kenavila643]

I thought I understood modes but maybe not....wouldn't this be Dorian mode for the key of G? Dorion mode means you're utilizing the second chord as home correct? The Am is home in this chord progression. So the chord progression is 2-5-2-5...Dorian for G?

[@kenavila643]

I think I may have answered my own question....A Dorian is the same thing as saying Dorian mode for the key of G correct?

[@Passion_For_Poetry]

Yeah when I was learning I thought that too, I would prefer to think of it that way too but that's not the way it's done. A Dorian is G major starting / ending on A

[@droj43]

DUDE IF UR STILL IN QUEBEC PLS LEMME KNOW WHEN/WHERE UR PERFORMING ID LOVE TO COME SEE

[@QuistJam]

it was just one show at the festival d'ete I'm afraid! But holy moly there were a lot of people!!!!!

[@seapea6744]

See that this is a dorian mode jam but wondering which key?

[@rzegorzgil4664]

Mr. Jacob- è un bel motivo purtroppo poco sviluppato. Se lo puoi modificare per favore. Senza arrangiamento come il tuo funk in gm sembra quasi "easy river ". Armonica diatonica player-Gregorio

[@GreenManalichi]

Found myself playing a 60s style ...like starship or doors lol

[@QuistJam]

Cool!

[@psicodelico1554]

Santana

[@monsieurlepenguin6602]

I should look into that style more, thx for the pointers

[@durhamviking1809]

Modes beginner here.....what makes this A Dorian and not G major....?

[@billyj6293]

@Durham viking. They are the same notes

[@TheUnmitigatedDawn]

Do you realize? that you have the most beautiful face. Do you realize? We’re floating in space Do you realize? That happiness makes you cry

[@MajsaiAttila]

Can I use this backing track for my video? I would make a guitar solo on this track. I will write your name and the source.

[@QuistJam]

yes, as long as credit is given with a link to the track you're playing on it's all good... have fun!!

[@cdfgdfgdfg]

Dude are you based in Québec ? I wanna take classes with you. Write me back!

[@QuistJam]

+psychobro1 I'm based in Los Angeles - I was on tour. Thanks and happy jamming!

[@JosephMelia]

Very "Doors"y nice

[@matthieurosso]

It's not A dorian, it's D mixolydian riff

[@FoleysWorld]

40 People thought it was "A aeolian" :D

[@larrytrejo1882]

It's a minor scale and also c major scale and g major scale Up 3 and 2 down. 3up is c major scale and 2 down is major scale. All these scales work with a minor chord. And there's 5 patterns for each scale total 15 patterns.

[@larrytrejo1882]

And I forgot a aeolian

[@Freddielovefootball]

Why is this played in Dorian? I'm new to the modes so spare me

[@JazzNepal]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/i32cg3-oja6LqdE

[@YouTw1tFace]

Because he wanted to play in Dorian. The question doesn’t make sense.

[@YouTw1tFace]

Or are you asking what makes this progression Dorian? Dorian is the second mode of the major scale. The first is Ionian and in this case A Dorian (G major/Ionian). Instead of starting/ending on G you start/end on A minor. In fact, you may not ever play the Root major chord (as in this track) because if you do it may sound just like a G major progression instead.

[@sergiogeli7542]

OYE COMO VA !! But... sloooow...

[@QuistJam]

Haha

[@blessingsoil1626]

Great track but am lost.

[@Krads-tk7kd]

D mixolidian had an exact fit not dorian

[@mikelewis495]

In case you confused it with Quebec City, Florida

[@TheParad0xical]

Cinema Sins?

[@ronaldothomejunior3702]

Can I play D Dorian abve this sound? Or maybe Dm7 Pentatonic? Will it works?

[@Nanoon61]

Key of e minor, play a dorian

[@Fan-gi1pg]

Wow

[@davedaddy101]

Sounded a bit like Carole Kings song “it’s too late”

[@matthieu1786]

Am-d.....should i prefer NVIDIA's baking track?

[@scottpc1234]

oil bath for robots feels sounds smells familiar wash rinse repeat whirring buzzing and clicking sounds spring fourth from all the other robots

[@Patallogus666]

Ееее

[@QuandaliuskrispingtonXIX]

please stop playing before the track it makes me realise how much i suck and discourages me from playing :(

[@QuistJam]
