Have some fun playing over this cool John Mayer style backing track which is written in the key of C#m or E major. As the tune starts on A major, rather than the root key of C# or E, you could even say this was an A Lydian backing track...
As for what to play over the top, well the C#minor pentatonic and C#m scale will be the ideal choices. You can also use the arpeggios of the chords in the song if you want to change with the chords. Have fun and keep jamming!

I really like that progression. Thank you.
@Wilmer Andersson sweet! Im using it haha
Best. Backing. Track. Ever.
Haha! Thanks Ivaylo, very happy you like it :) :)
Best jam track ever
Thank you very much for this.
You're very welcome! 🎸🎸
Did some workout, took a hot shower, sat with the guitar and jammed on this track before sleep. What more can you ask from life? This is just bliss.
True that! Sounds like a perfect evening :) :)
Your Guitar Academy Absolutely.
Ask for a joint before the jam
Wake up and repeat 😀
Yeah man, taking a shower is just the BEST! I *love* taking showers!
C#m is my favorite.
Had fun jamming along with this track, Thanks for the upload!
I love jamming to this thanks so much. Im starting to think C# minor is my favorite key. I have so much fun playing in it.
Yeah it’s an awesome key for sure! Keep having fun! 😀😀💪
Agree. Did you try it in the relative E major? If you did you think it sounded good- trying to decide which I like better. Mostly the same notes +2 gives it a different flavor. I might lean towards just C#m. Sometimes less is more. This progression is deceptively simple yet nice. JM really likes his C#m7.
@@MOAB-UT I have played it in E major. I tend to stick to C#M with this particular track. Other tracks in the same key have a different feel not sure how to put into words that E major really lends itself to. I play it pretty clean on this one too, just a touch of compression and a little reverb.
@@funkymonkey8174 I know exactly what you mean. There is theory, chord progressions and then simply just feel. I'll go with feel all day long.
Yea it’s e major or C sharp minor.. root notes on the 9th low e
Great track! can I use your backing track, play over it and upload?
love it
i need a longer one haha
Haha! Now that's a lovely bit of feedback! Just pop it on loop my friend! 😊😊😊😊
Ik this is really late but can I ask how did you get the atmospheric background? It sounds like an organ, organ pedal? Or added on later
The background is an organ synth in Logic X. great sounding synth right?!
Your Guitar Academy
Yes it sounds amazing!
Nice one
Thanks YT Jam Tracks! Looks like you've got some pretty awesome tracks yourself!
Can u make a lincoln Brewster backing track? And that’s a awesome track!
Hi Zwilson Music! Lincoln Brewster... Yeah sure we can look into that. I'm not personally too familiar with his work, can you recommend me a few songs? Many thanks!
Your Guitar Academy, let your glory shine, live to praise you, shout it out, salvation is here! That’s some of his songs! If you need more songs just tell me!
Your Guitar Academy my personal favorite is let your glory shine! And thanks for your time!
Ok great thank you! We have a long list of requests, but we'll see what we can do! :)
Your Guitar Academy thank you! God bless!
Cool stuff,but the G#m7 sounds like a E/G#
lol this makes my dumb playing sound good idk how you manage it it sounds like im following the chords though im not trying at all
Is this based on any song?
1.5 sounds ok.
(/troll :D)
Good idea ! thanks :P 1.25 is good too!
75 bpm, don't you think?
This at 0.75 speed is the greatest thing I’ve ever heard
Working from home, what a way to spend my lunch break
Enjoy!
same! hahaha
Ive played over hundreds of backing tracks but this one is just one of a kind.. amazing. The chord progression touches your soul, the guitar part is just beautiful. JM would approve 100%.
Wow, thank you so much for this amazing comment! I think it's pretty much the nicest comment I've ever seen :) Keep enjoying the backing track and keep jamming! :) :)
I absolute love it . This is probably the only John Mayer style backing track which actually sounds like him . Great job
This has some low-key “Slow Dancing in a Burning Room” vibes and I LOVE IT
Same key bro
Nice job man! ...put it on to improvise to and wound play the rhythm with you ...
Thats the best backing track i ve ever played on
Feels like every note I play fits so perfectly with this track!! Love it thank you
Thanks Jack! So glad you love the track - plenty more where that came from :) :)
Probably one of the best guitar jam tracks of all time.
More like E major, relative C# minor. The tone and phrasing are all in E major
Yes well spotted! It definitely has a major feel all round and others have commented that in theory it could even be considered Lydian as the opening chord is A, but the chords are based on the E major scale.
It feels very minor to me. Unless you are referring to minor as being harmonic minor, as classically trained musicians might. To me, A is the 6th chord of the tonic C#m. I know some would call it the 4 chord as it stems from E ionian, but that's not how I was taught nor how I see it. Regardless, I hear minor (aeolian).
Thanks for clearing that up. The notes fit much better in E major.
it's C# Minor--that's the tonal center. not A Lydian. E major is C# minor but C# minor is the TONAL CENTER.
@@marcusatmercy In the absence of a V-i cadence, it still sounds like C# minor to me....It does have the Aeolian minor five chords in the G# minor.
No way in hell is it Lydian; that's just a little knowledge being dangerous...
Amazing. I could play along to this all day!
this issick beautyful. so molodic, thanks
Thanks Rat! Great to hear you are loving it. If you want to learn how to play the actual guitar part, it's all here for free: www.yourguitaracademy.com/courses/john-mayer/lessons/electric-john-rhythm
Amazing backing track!
I love John Mayer so I'll definitely check the course too 😎
Thanks guys!
Thanks Jacopo! Massively appreciated, and if you have any questions about the John Mayer lessons, please let me know :)
@@yga i wanna soooo record what i have over this and let you hear it!! Thank you this is amazing
This is key of Slow dancing.. C#m 🎶..✌
Great track. Sounds awesome, still leaves a lot of room for my guitar to bloom while soloing over it. Good job
Got major 'waiting on the world to change' vibes from the opening drums
Whoever you are who played this , you have the gift , what beautiful tone and feel . You channeled John Meyer , I don’t even want to play over it and spoil it 🙏🏻😁
a lot of human nature memorial ...nice
The track itself is soothing on its own. Beautifully done.
Thank you so much, what a lovely bit of feedback :) Many more coming your way soon!
Wait did I just get low key Rick Rolled?
GREAT TRACK! Bookmarked in my Jam folder.
Human nature?
Sounds just like mayer at MJ’s funeral
Still fun to play no matter the complaints in the comments!!!
what the fuck, I can't believe I played along to this for 8 minutes. it went by so quick. this backing track is like perfection
Haha! Glad you enjoyed it :)
What’s your recording set up like?
Beautiful Backing Track, Thanks!
Thanks Frank!! :) :)
Bad end though!
I'm subscribing just because of how nice you are in the comments
Thank you Juan, we really appreciate you subscribing! :) :)
It's a brilliant backing track - thanks. Although mine always stops half way through and looks like it's loading. Does anyone else have this issue?
Isn't this just human nature transposed?
Great track. Had fun jamming to this one
I hear some Human Nature here :') thanks man!
Haha! Yes this is indeed based upon that rather awesome chord progression :) :) Glad you like it!
all I hear is human nature
This is the human nature cover that john did at MJs funeral, so sweeet
So I’m listening to this. Is there anyway to tell which chord is witch. I can’t hear the changes. I mean. How do I count this out. Super new(b) here.
Can somebody explain those quick funky changes coming after C#m7?
Human Nature
So much feeling. Almost came to tears improvising on this :D
The best backing track on TH-cam!
Super cool... Thank you superb progress... Good training...+1+1
Super cool merci superbe progression...bon entrainement...+1+1

Haha! Glad you enjoyed it Maleesha! :) :)

Cette piste est excellente, merci pour le partage !
Thanks K2pad!! Glad you enjoyed it :)
can I write and solo and record a record to this if I give you credits ? amazing vibrations I want to carry on !! lmk
Hi there! Yes, please send us the details to contact@yourguitaracademy.com 🙏🙏🤘
can i use this backing track with giving credict?
Yes you can! Please email us and we'll sort out the details: contact@yourguitaracademy.com
What would an interesting chorus or bridge progression be with this? I struggle with that a lot. I come up with a nice verse progression but then don’t know where to take it.
A lot of great bridges maintain a pretty similar chord structure to the verses/choruses. You may switch some chords around like instead of going from A to bm to G# maybe start on bm then go to G# and back to A. But the main thing I think makes great bridges is just the dynamics and the feel used. Some great bridges are the exact same chords but played with build-ups, finger picked, etc. Just experiment.
One tip that use often is enter a birdge on the relative major & vice versa. In this case it’s a HUGE Open E that you can smash out. Will completely change the tone of the progression while staying in the same key✌️
my night light
doesn't work anymore
and in pitch dark
i think about it before
before it all went down
now i own the town
but i can't find it
what i lost
i dont make a sound
What are the chord tabs? Just a regular old A isn’t the exact same sound. Are they funky ways of doing the chords like john Mayer always does lol
Hey Jake! Good news, you can learn the whole track here: yourguitaracademy.com/courses/john-mayer/lessons/electric-john-rhythm
super fun track man, it's helping me get some much needed c#m practice in
Fell asleep wile playing my guitar to it. It was relaxing 😌
ummm how do I purchase the backing track and jam to it?
Smooth as F*ck!!! 😎
Haha! Thanks Candy Man!
was jamming to this and had a lot of fun playing the Human Nature melody. good practice!!
I wish you could highlight the chord when playing 👌
Thank you, i have a lot of fun jamming with
Awesome Mario, glad you liked it!
I’m wanting to use this in a song I wrote. Is there a way I can purchase an mp3 and are you ok w that?
Hi John, all sorted via email now right?! 😊😊🤘
Your Guitar Academy yes. Still wondering how I could get a mp3 version of this song. Much appreciated. Really love the groove!
no gonna lie the organ is a little annoying
Can I use this for my song? I really liked the vibe. Pls reply I badly want this track 🤕
Hi Jak! Yes please email us at info@yourguitaracademy.com letting us know how you plan to use the track and we can sort out the details 😀🎸
Your Guitar Academy its for entertainment only hehez
Best track ever
tasty
Thanks Mitch! :)
This is an excellent track man, thanks
Thanks Ethan! Glad you are enjoying it :)
Really nice track.
Sounds amazing. ❤
Nice! :3
can i use your backing tracks on videos if i mention your channel in descriptions? :)
Absolutely! Are you planning to jam over it? Please mention our channel and @yourguitaracademy us on Instagram so we can share your awesome jamming!
@@yga thats right! thanks!
hi everyone ,if anyone else needs to find out about blues jam tracks try Jadonite Guitar Blues Buddy ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my mate got cool results with it.
This is one's really cool, fun to play with on higher strings
First of all I should say beautiful track, thank you for sharing
Thouht it would be in A since A is the first and most used chord in the progression... clearly I am missing something
Hey there, you are correct! A major is the relative major to C# Minor so it really comes down to what you want to base your scales around as the notes for both are the same.
@@ygaI thought E major is the relative major to C#m, isn't it? And then wouldn't A minor would be the relative minor to C# Major?
Hey Edward, thank you for your comment my brain clearly wasn't in gear here! E major is the relative major to C#m! but A minor is the relative minor to just C major!
@@yga I just realised my mistake too haha
If I could marry a backing track this would be the one.
What song is this inspired by?
Absolutely fantastic to jam to. Thanks for the work mate!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊😊🎸
this is a really great track
This is a beautiful chord progression man , good job
You wouldn’t have a tab of this just wondering because of all thoes little licks sounds awesome
Yes absolutely, they are part of our John Mayer player study which you can find here: www.yourguitaracademy.com/courses/john-mayer the third section (electric John Rhythm) is the part that deal with this song! Enjoy :)
Is this track particularly inspired to any John Mayer song?
Thank you!
It's a mix between Human Nature and Waiting on The World To Change! 😊😊
@@yga Thank you so much! It is gonna be very helpful :)
this is just human nature in another key lmaoo
Yep, pretty much!! :)
Love it!
Wow, amazing work! The only downside for me is I usually solo with this same clean tone so it clashes with the track, but that's me not understanding the use of overdrive I guess. 😂
This has so much freedom. Thanks. Sounds super cool with F# Dorian and c#minor blues.
