The Jam Session CDs from Riff Interactive are designed to teach you theory and technique, rhythm
riffs, chords, scales, riffs, and solos as you play along to the jam tracks, and the two newest releases target the Funk.
The Funk style, born out of the 1960's, is a
hybrid of jazz, soul, and rock 'n roll. It is mostly a rhythm riff style of
guitar playing. The Funk guitar style is best played on electric guitars.
These lessons are for the student who is looking for new things to practice,
new theory to apply, new ways to improve using modes and perhaps best of
all, something new to jam to.
Lyle Ronglien teaches guitar lessons over the Internet, plays lead guitar in
one of Seattle's local bands (The Machine), and produces music for national
TV and radio commercials, as well as music for national recording artists
(En Vogue and others).
The CD-ROM features:
- Interactive tab/notation that syncs to the actual guitar audio.
- Virtual guitar neck showing the notes being played and the fingering.
- Select, loop, slow media and tab notation down to your desired speed while maintaining original pitch.
- Videos and looping jam tracks to practice with.
- Transcription of lessons where actual students interact with teacher.
