Minor jam tracks

Jam tracks created for the Minor scales.
Backing tracks for the Natural Minor Scale in all keys for improvising and practicing. These tracks have in common that they only consist of one chord each. In addition, scale options besides the obvious Minor scales are given that expand the possibilities to experience with sounds and increase the understanding of the musical situation. An additional training method is to combine scales and arpeggios. For example, playing the A Minor scale ascending and when using the A Minor arpeggio to return descending.
Tips: Consider ending phrases with the root note (e.g. A in A Minor). This can be variated with ending other phrases with the b3 note (e.g. C in A Minor). These approaches can be incorporated into the concept of "questions and answers" with a question phrase ending with the root followed by an answer phrase ending on the b3.
