C Dorian Mode notes and formula:

This jam track is a two chord vamp using the IV and V chords taken from the parallel major scale (Bb major) but with C in the bass.
Eb/C contains the same notes as Cm7, so this chord could be viewed as such. F major already contain the note C so that could be considered just an F major.
