This progression starts off in the key of Eb Major
The first chord is Fmin9th with the inverted 9th key played as G, next to the F.
Next I play B7 but inverting it so that I can leave my pinky on the F, very neat trick.
I repeat that twice, then play Gb Maj 9th which is in a different key but I am able to still play in the scale of Eb my my right hand, this is what gives it such a jazzy feeling. And then the finger trick again,but transposing and shifting my thumb and index finger getting a C7 Aug inverted.
At around 27 secs I threw in a chord from another scale again – Gmin9th (Bb Scale), then inverted C7. The Eb scale is very similar to the Eb scale which is why they are interchangeable.
E flat scale is as below.
EbMaj, Fmin, Gmin, AbMaj, Bb7, Cmin, Ddim
Bb scale is below
BbMaj, Cmin, Dmin, EbMaj, F7, Gmin, Adim
As you can from the bold text see there are some shared chords. Try playing using the Lounge Lizard VST, to get that smooth Neo soul / Jazzy sound. I like to tweak my own presets.
Nice chords sequence, do you mean. F and Eb scales are interchangeable? You mention Eb and Eb, maybe a typo?
Yes, sorry I meant F and Eb.
Do you think it’s necessary to learn all scales in order to play good?
Learning all the scales will make things easier, but not always necessary.
Thanks, just wondering what scales to start off with, other than C major.
Love the tutorials mate. Keepthem coming for real.
Are you referring to Major scales?
Yes correct
Do you have a MIDI for this? I’d love to slow this down and learn it with my own keyboard.
Hi, I don’t think I do. If I did it may take a while searching. It may be easier to simply play it again and record the MIDI through my DAW. I’ll do that and send you the file.
