Forget about practice routines, long term goals and curricula...

Music is about relaxing and having fun - if you can do these two while playing guitar, you will be a winner.

If you can't yet...then this collab is for you!

BACKING TRACKS:
Attached File  Funkit_gmc_collab.mp3 ( 1.38MB ) Number of downloads: 934

Attached File  funkit_collab_extended.mp3 ( 12.92MB ) Number of downloads: 660



In this "Funk It!" collab - we'll be able to play whatever we want, using (almost) any scale.

* Want to get into fusion? Try playing outside (=wrong sounding) notes over this backing.

* Maybe you want to try some funk scratching?

* Maybe just a straightforward pentatonic rock solo?

* Or why not write a riff?

This is a very flexible and extremely cool sounding backing track - thanks to Vinman56 and Gab!


----------


Hints:

* Tempo is 105 bpm
* Deadline is 2015-03-03 ( NB: Extended to 2015-03-10)
* Although this is an audio collab, feel free to video record yourself as this will help you get better feedback.
* When you want to submit your final take, upload files in this topic (mp3 with at least 128 kbps quality, 16 bit wav files are welcome though). We need two files: 1. Your solo without the backing track 2. Your solo mixed with the backing track for reference.

Scale suggestions:

E Mixolydian:


E minor pentatonic:


Other scale suggestions: E major pentatonic, E dominant 7 arpeggio, chromatic scale, E minor scale, E phrygian dominant.
