A Phrygian Backing Track - (3rd mode of F Major)

Hit me up for online guitar lessons! A backing track for practicing your 3rd mode of F Major over. Note that even though this mode starts on A, we are still in the scale of F Major. This is simply the third mode of F Major; which starts at the third note in the scale, A.

So I created backing tracks for each mode consisting of the chord derived of the triad of the present mode (in this instance A Minor) and the root chord (F Major, since we are playing our modes in F Major). This is to help develop your ear and be able to utilize each mode. Now, you could play the scale of A minor over this, but the point is the practice your third mode of F Major (the...
