Soulful SMOOTH JAZZ Backing Track in E minor (Blues & Altered Scale Diagrams)

[@Pyro_Shields]

I turned this backing track on as I was taking my guitar out of the case. I paused and then just listened to the track. Very calming. The Rhodes is perfect.

[@pocketjamtracks]

Wow thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I love the Rhodes 😌

[@charleszhou4091]

This is the best solo lesson I had in my life

[@pocketjamtracks]

Thanks man! ✌️

Omg this is pure gold, who ever came up with this isnt human. THANK YOUU

[@pocketjamtracks]

Thank you so much 🙏🙏

[@georgefenning4844]

This is so inspirational . I improvised using an acoustic guitar . Found it very intuitive to play along with and was surprised with the musical and lyrical ideas this generated. I’m speechless. Why is it so good. ?

[@pocketjamtracks]

Wow what a compliment! I'm glad you found this track so inspiring 🙏

[@georgefenning4844]

I tried to play it on piano ..it didn’t work as well. I felt like the em9 was the beginning chord .. can’t work out why the c maj7 feels like the first bar on your production .. I feel a song coming on …. Amazing

[@vibeinc3444]

Same as me

[@robertcampbell7662]

Thanks dude this was super cool to jam too!

[@EdBender]

love this track too. I think it works so well because of the B7alt chord. Also worth noticing the chord progression is quite interesting since the key is Em, so the resolution is delayed quite a bit. Very nice track. Found myself jamming on the guitar for a long time.

[@92fonz]

Came up with very nice licks with this tune. Rock on 🤙🏼

[@pocketjamtracks]

Yeah 🤘

[@ChordTracks]

I normally don’t play to these kind of tracks but this one had me trying!

[@pirateradioFPV]

It's just so incredibly satisfying to play on it. So easy to expand the ideas, drift on and off.

[@pocketjamtracks]

Thank you so much!

Bliss playing along in that e minor scale...thankyou so much!

[@pocketjamtracks]

Thank you for you support!

[@ilyasrayan4791]

This track is great to work and to Jam !!! Slow rythm allow to change the scale according to each chords, short example: - CMaj7 ==> E Blues Scale - BAlt7 ==> B SuperLocrian everyday - Em9 ==> Go for E Aeolian, why not A Dorian - A13 ==> Go for E Dorian Put in evidence tension and resolution notes: - CMaj7 ==> E - BAlt7 ==> Eb - Em9 ==> Whatever - A13 ==> C# Thanks for the track !!

[@pocketjamtracks]

Great breakdown, really nice choices! Thank you do much for your support 🙏

[@caiocesarzancan7716]

[@spike1890]

Great track to jam to. I usually go a little heavier but loved this mellow vibe. Thanks

Thanks man, yes it's nice and easy to sound good over this one.

Hi! Thank you for this backing track! I like this. Im playing home this smooth jazz and it helps for me to forgot about problems.

[@pocketjamtracks]

Wow you're welcome! Thank you 🙏

my man this track is GODLY i'm vibing to this rn smooth af thank you

[@pocketjamtracks]

Yeah, thanks!

[@erebys21]

A backing track so good I can noodle pretty much completely random notes in the scale and it still sounds AMAZING Edit: like seriously, jamming to this makes me feel like I know what I'm doing even though I have only played guitar for 1.5 years.

[@pocketjamtracks]

Awesome, glad you enjoyed it!

[@matthewhumphrey3466]

this was dope to play on my 5 string bass, love it

[@pocketjamtracks]

Nice, that's great! Thank you

[@danvpat]

this is weirdly fun to play metallica solos over

[@pocketjamtracks]

🤣😅

[@squeebbb]

This sounds very much like Something About Us by Daft Punk. I love it.

[@pocketjamtracks]

Thanks! Yes it is a common Jazz and Soul chord progression.

[@adamkay4096]

Proper jams.... thank you.

[@pocketjamtracks]

🙏🙏

[@dannychoriki1977]

this B7 altered sound, using the C melodic minor scale is implying some really cool SUPER LOCRIAN tones, followed by a dominant A13 chord for some equally as badass A dorian lines at the end. Overall a sick track that I am glad I clicked on. 10/10 would jam again.

[@pocketjamtracks]

Yeah thats super cool, I also use A lydian dominant on the A13 to give it some spice ;) Thanks!

[@gamefan3300]

i instantly clicked on it too , amazing.

[@lucasvel4889]

perfect! thank you

[@_reki]

For a crunchy left hand piano voicing try: C3-G3-B3, B2-D#3-A3, E3-F#3-G3-B3, E3-G3-A3-C#4

[@pocketjamtracks]

Thank you for your suggestion!

Oooh, this one is fun on tenor sax, thanks.

[@pocketjamtracks]

Nice! I love a good sax solo 🎷😎

[@saleplains]

sheesh that 8 mins went quick. i kept spacing tho and hitting the c against the c# on the a chord and vce versa lol but eventually started really getting into it and it started flowing.

[@pocketjamtracks]

That's how you get better, awesome!

[@jhoanmarcoroyo4306]

GOOOOOOODDD

[@seaarebee5417]

nice thank you

[@evanjfraser]

Same chord progression as Something about us by daft punk :)

[@pocketjamtracks]

Nice catch! Yes it is, the only difference is that the 2nd chord is minor most of the time, instead of a dominant chord ;)

[@dude2930]

Can somebody explain what this is in a beginner friendly way.. the dots are all the notes that you can play because they belong to the scale right so it will sound right? But what are the numbers and letters on the dots? and in this video there are different scales because it modulates throughout right? Like we go from one key to another ? Thanks guys

[@pocketjamtracks]

Hey, the dots are all the notes available that work over this backing track, the numbers and letters are the names of the degrees of the scale. But if you don't know theory you can ignore that and just experiment with those notes and play what sounds good to you.

Hello if I want to make a song and take to spotify I just have to buy the track 1 dollars?

[@pocketjamtracks]

Hello there, you have to buy the album that includes the backing track you want to use and give credit by tagging this channel. But it's only for posting on social media like for example if you want to solo over it and share on KZbin, Instagram, TikTok... It's not for Spotify because of copywrite. Please check the video description 🙏

[@theguardian8309]

May be this will get answered one day but I really want to know what model of guitar is in the thumbnail. If you could let me know thanks!

[@pocketjamtracks]

It's an Ibanez AS73GBKF

[@Strobus]

How do you guys get the b5 of the alt scale to work?

[@pocketjamtracks]

You play the altered scale over the altered chord, that b5 is a chord tone so it works pretty well. Maybe you just need to get used to that sound. Hope it helps 🙏

[@Strobus]

@@pocketjamtracks yeah ur right. Trapped in the Aeolian loophole

[@Danwackawacka]

Dude i can just play the chromatic scale over this

[@pocketjamtracks]

It's always possible to play all 12 notes in a solo, just use those that are out of the key as passing tones for good notes.

[@robdonell9915]

What are the chord notes for B7 alt ?

[@pocketjamtracks]

An altered 7th chord needs an altered fifth and/or ninth. In this case I'm playing a B7b13, the b13 is the same as a #5. So the notes are B D# G A.
