A moody loop I accidentally made!

Hey guys and girls!

I’ve been playing around with my looper and I made a loop that I quite liked & wanted to share with you. I’d love to work on it make it into a full instrumental. Being a beginner, I’m struggling to build up to that loop and how to end it, so any (if possible :thinking:) suggestions would be appreciated. It’s quite simple and slow, but I feel that it can turn out pretty good!

It’s in F#m, chords are F#m7 and B7. There’s some lines over it that are in F# Dorian (I think?:sweat_smile:)

Anyway, here’s my loop!

Love the mellow vibes, Todar, a laid back groove and cool tones.

I don’t know abour Dorian. All I’d suggest is experiment with some other chords in the key (F#m, G#dim, A, Bm, C#m, D, E). And you may find B7 to Bm7 sounds good.

Your loop is already pretty good and there’s probably enough there to build a melody on top. A couple simple things worth trying:change the order of the chords and the length of time between chord changes; experiment; you’ll know if it sounds good. Look forward to hearing the piece develop.

That’s almost a classic Dorian vamp … minor i chord moving to the major IV chord … but the IV chord would not normally be played as a dominant 7, major or major 7.

This roughly matches the Dorian vamp founf in Tears For Fears song Mad World, but you are one whole tone higher in pitch.

Hi Teodor, that was really moody and sweet! I’m afraid I’m unable to offer advice on loops.
