Groovy Track in A minor (80 bpm)

-Fmaj7 (IVmaj7): The Subdominant. Starting on the IV chord creates a "floating" or "dreamy" atmosphere.
-Dm7 (ii7): The Supertonic. It provides a smooth, jazzy transition.
-Am7 (vi7): The Relative Minor. This adds a touch of melancholy and stability.
-Cmaj7 (Imaj7): The Tonic. This is your home base, providing resolution.

Alternatively it can also be Cmaj .All the notes in chords—including the extensions like the 9th (D/E), 11th (G), and 13th (A)—belong to the C Major scale (C, D, E, F, G, A, B).

The use of Dm7(9, 11) and Cmaj7(9, 13) gives this progression a sophisticated Neo-Soul or Lo-fi Jazz feel. The 13th on the Cmaj7 is particularly nice because it echoes the 'A' note from the preceding Am7, creating a smooth melodic bridge.

Scale to use:

-A Minor Pentatonic: This is the secret sauce for Neo-Soul and Lo-fi. By avoiding the "harsh" half-steps (F and B), you get a very open, soulful sound that never hits a "wrong" note.

-C Major Scale (C Ionian): This can also be the foundation. Every note in your chords is pulled from this scale.

-Over Fmaj7: Use F Lydian. Focus on the B note (the #4). It adds a "shimmering" or "magical" quality.

-Over Dm7: Use D Dorian. Focus on the B note (the Major 6th). This gives it a sophisticated jazz-funk edge.

-Over Cmaj7: Use C Major. Lean heavily on the D (9th) and A (13th) to match the beautiful extensions you’ve already used in your chords.

-A Minor Blues Scale (bluesy choice): Adding the "blue note" (Eb) provides that grit and tension found in R&B and Gospel.

Pro-Tip: Since you have a Cmaj7(9,13), your melody will sound amazing if you land on an A or D over that final chord—it resolves the tension of the previous Am7 perfectly.

Have fun ;)
