Tempo = 60 BPM
Chord progression:
II: Dm I Gm I Dm I Dm I
I Gm I Gm I Dm I Dm I
I A I Bb A I Dm I A :II
Scale suggestions:
D minor pentatonic scale - D F G A C
D minor blues scale - D F G G# A C
D minor scale - D E F G A Bb C
A chords:
D harmonic minor scale - D E F G A Bb C#
Or
Treat it as an altered chord and use the altered scale:
A altered scale - A Bb C C# Eb F G
The altered scale is the mode which starts on the 7th step of the melodic minor scale, so in other words - the notes of A altered scale are the same as those of Bb melodic minor scale :)
The triads will come in useful:
Dm - D F A
Gm - G Bb D
A - A C# E
Bb - Bb D F
