F 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 (Eb major) but with F in the bass.
Ab/F contains the same notes as Fm7, so this chord could be viewed as such. Bb major already contain the note F so that could be considered just an Bb major.
