Thx a lot.. just had the greatest time with my 7 years old pianist daughter soloing over this tracking.. amazing..

[@rickdeckard1075]

thats cool, great age to learn chord voicings

[@JustAnotherEngineer_]

So I got stuck in a rut for improvising, had no idea what I was doing. Found this track and it feels like the gods of Kenny G have just possessed me, what just happened. Probably one of my favourite backing tracks now, thank you!

[@stratoleft]

This has that skipping feel I like so much. Excellent mixture of everything on this tune.

[@Auiuei]

This track pretty much forced me to get out of my improv rut I've been in lately. Thank you very much for that lol

[@EliteBackingTracks]

+Auiuei Hi Auiuei! That is cool to hear! Yeah, we all need a litte help sometimes, and good to hear that this backing track helped you out in your particular case! :D Cheers!

[@EliteBackingTracks]

He he, thank you for that! :D

[@TornByThornss]

Wow. Simply amazing. I'm currently learning music theory but still solely play off feeling, due to not being able to translate any of what I have learnt into practice because it is only the basics. But despite that, I have played guitar for 8 years and was able to shred out a lovely little improv session based off feeling to this wonderful track. Thank you so much!

[@EliteBackingTracks]

Hi Jordan! So great to hear that you find our tracks useful for practicing, and as a supplement to learning music theory! Keep it up

Going to be jamming to this forever, PEACE

[@beefytatersplays933]

Try 5th fret D root on a caged E pentatonic form to start yourself out. It has a nice sound that transitions nicely to the resolutions during play. I tried to focus on diad and triad voicing while working the scale to stretch my ear and skill. Thank you for these, you are making me a better player :)

[@safaaelias]

Great tunes, thanks a lot! Please keep uploading!!!

[@EliteBackingTracks]

Thanks Elias! Yeah, for sure, will keep em coming!

I play guitar in my school's jazz band, and i was assigned a solo. The song is actually about 127bpm, but this definitely works as well. I like the track, and i'm definitely using this to practice my improving.

[@luukwoudstra8903]

C frygian works well on this track. Had a lot of fun jamming!

[@EliteBackingTracks]

Nice! That sounds cool! Feel free to share your jam to it as well! Cheers!

[@stephanweidt-guitar]

What you call C frygian here is nothing else than the A flat major or the natural F minor scale. I'm serious.

[@luukwoudstra8903]

Stephan Weidt can you explain that?

[@stephanweidt-guitar]

I'll try. Excuse that maybe my English is not so good. C frygian is the third level of A flat major. A flat major is the parallel key to F minor. You can call the scale you play C frygian or natural F minor - the notes are the same -, but the reference point in this backing track is F, not C, and the key is F - so it should be F minor here, not C frygian. - I hope, I used the right English terms and you understand what I mean.

[@luukwoudstra8903]

Stephan Weidt I understand. but there are 7 modes and they're all using the same notes. so in wich case i'm actually playing in C phrygian?

[@andymarrguitar]

Great backing track for guitar improvisation ! Can I use it on my videos to post online? I would of course put your KZbin link on the description !

[@ayeproducer]

Chill

[@robertwendell2698]

The chord at 4:46 (and anywhere else it occurs) is not an F7#5 as "advertised" (notated in the chord bar). There is an Ab at the top of that chord. There is no Ab in an F7#5 chord. What plays is actually an F7b10 (flat third high in the structure), or as more usually notated in jazz charts, an F7#9. The sharp ninth is an Ab/G#, the note we hear at the top in the audio. I prefer to call it a flat third or better, flat tenth, since it has to occur high in the structure to work. It creates a kind of bluesy grit against the lower major third in the F7. It evolved from the blues, which typically alternates between a major and minor third in the blues scale. So I prefer to call it a flat third or tenth, since it is a pleasantly gritty chord that reflects this tonal ambiguity in the blues and therefore does NOT function tonally as a sharp ninth. Calling it a sharp ninth is probably just easier for people reading charts to understand quickly. For the same reason, we often see diminished seventh chords over a note at the bottom a major third below the diminished seventh. This is just a way to help naïve readers get it right, since many rhythm guitarists, for example, would not understand what a C7m9 means. Calling it an Edim7/C takes care of that problem, but it's kind of silly from a consistent theory of harmony point of view. After all this time no replies. Hmmm....guess no one knows what the heck I'm talking about.

[@MrBobmaunsell]

[@jaegye]

Does anyone know music of similar style to this? Instrumental or vocal doesnt matter. Just really liking this :)

[@ellissanchez8397]

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

[@UltimateForceMarketing]

Donald Fagan & old bot Walt could be envisioned performing on this vibe because i hear Walter or Larry Carlton playing on this likewise! Steely Dan maybe the song would entitled "just thinking about you?"

[@Melanie-gu4cl]

Hello Elite Backing Tracks. I'm totally "new" to improvising. If a backing track is in this case, in F minor, do I use the F minor scale to improvise? In other words, does the scale you use to improvise have to be the same key as the backing track? Thanks.

[@tancredidaltavilla2141]

CIao Melanie, surely you can start to the scale, and if a scale is not suggested (in many cases you can find backing tracks where it is suggesed i.e. C misolidian ..., he scale of the tone could be right. But trie to listen to what you are doing, the note you play should belong to the chord you read in that moment, otherwise it could happen some cacophony. You can also try to play first the chords (if are complicate for you, make the basic chord) and them only che the note that give the name to the chord the "root" (as a bassist). Then add some notes (from the Fm scale) to pass from a root to arrive to other root. Them try to use as liking notes all the notes in the middle, the chromatic scale (it shall be beautiful in some cases and in other cases no: thy). A last (but in this case you have to study for every chord the name and where are on the keyboard the "special" notes of the chord: for special note I mean the 9, the 7M, the b13 etc. (if there are a lot of chords, you can copy them on paper a write under the chord the name of the "special" note and tray to use also them sometimes.

[@EliteBackingTracks]

That is great to hear, thank you! Yes, we understand the time issue, so that is why we make all these tracks for you guys to practice to, so that you can concentrate on improving your playing skills instead of dealing with all the composing/arranging stuff. :) Cheers!

[@AlbertJasonAlburo]

When playing bass I also use some wrong notes or chromatic scales. According to Victor Wooten, you can use wrong notes in Jazz.

[@guitarman6742]

I keep expecting someone to bust out with "Feelings"...oh oh oh Feelings.

[@EliteBackingTracks]

Ok..? What song is that?

[@Robert-zk1zb]

It's nice slowed down a little at .75 too..

[@beramatteofrancesco2398]

What scale you use for this track? tnx

[@EliteBackingTracks]

+Francesco Matteo Bera Hey Francesco! Thanks for you question! I would suggest using a F harmonic minor, or a F natural minor (aeolian) for most of the track, but maybe change it up a little when you play over the dominant (C7b), and try out some half-diminished, whole-tone scale, or chromatics. :) Hope that helps!

[@jazzdings6481]

SUPER DRUMMER

[@filipdinevmusic]

I like your design sense. Just, make the drums more real - use better VSTs

[@EliteBackingTracks]

+Filip Dinev Thank you for your comment Filip! :) We appreciate your feedback, and are continuously working on improving our music and our productions. Do you have any VST in mind for drums that you would recommend? Cheers!

[@filipdinevmusic]

I installed Addictive Drums 2, with all of the expansions recently, and I must say I'm very surprised of how it sounds. Especially the funk, retro and jazz kits. They have a lot of character and with some minor improvements they can sound pretty good.

[@EliteBackingTracks]

+Filip Dinev Cool! Yes, the Addictive Drums are good sounding stuff! :D EZ Drummer 2 is cool, as well.
