Thanx for your explanation. I am read to advance. Awesome! So here is the plan! We will be combining theory and playing! This way you will get fastest results! I would like to start combining pentatonic scales! Here is a very cool II - V - I backing track in E minor http://soundcloud.com/alex-feather-akimov/ii-v-i-jam The chords are: Emi7 - A7 - Dmaj7 So we will start by playing pentatonic over each chord! This is the easiest way to learn playing over the chord changes! Over E mi7 chord I want you to play E dorian mode Over A7 A minor blues pentatonic Over D major 7 F# minor pentatonic When you are playing over this chord progression try to be as melodic as possible and create phrases instead of just jamming! Let me know if you have any questions or need help! -------------------- |

hello Alex, thank you for your concern!
I tried some playing but it is not melodic, so I did not record it. Can you show me some demo? Thanx!! |

Hello Alex, this is my recording. http://soundcloud.com/kklee100/ii-v-i-jam-mix You did a very good job! Nice phrases and some very nice ideas! A few things that will improve your playing even more! - Turn down distortion. It will help you develop a better touch and improve dynamic! It is really important not to hide behind the wall of distortion try it out and let me know how it feels! - I would suggest trying out question and answer technique! It will work perfectly for this solo! Let me know if you are not familiar with Q&A and I will explain it in details! -------------------- |

Thanx Alex, Would you please explain question and answer technique? Thanx!! So I did an example of Q&A technique as you can hear I was trying to have rest between the phrases and was pretending that it is a conversation between two people I would like to add another pentatonic and we will also start using a blues scale It is exactly the same as a minor pentatonic accept of added bIV in it! That is how you get a cool bluesy sound! I would like you to use those two blues shapes: I have recorded a track to give you ideas! Please continue my solo http://soundcloud.com/alex-feather-akimov/dminor-solo Let me know if you have any questions or need help with anything! -------------------- |
