WHY'S EVERYBODY ACTIN FUNNY
>>62398938
Dm Fmaj Am F#maj7/Fm
>>62398772
I prefer Emaj instead of Em. It happens to be the Where Is My Mind progression, too. Very evocative of feelings of alienation/loneliness.
>>62398975
I STOOD IN LINE AND ATE MY TWINKIES
>>62399037
pixies abused the fuck out of Am to Emaj come to think of it

Is this every Jpop song ever?

*C#m
>>62399327
Wait how the fuck does that even work? How can chord be minor AND major?
>>62399381
Didn't mean it like that. Here's an example, play F A D instead of F Am Dm. Or E C instead of Em C, that kind of thing
>>62399409
Oh, like that. So what you do is quickly switch between relative major and minor scales? That sounds pretty cool.
>>62399409
>e maj c maj
You mean Oh Comely?
What I think would be more interesting is switching out minor chords for the ionian counterpart
e.g. Switching A minor for C maj
>>62398772

I think he literally just means play major chords instead of minor chords
all the time
>>62398835
Creep
>>62399496
I probably think too strictly in scales for this right now. How would such chords resolve?
>>62399432
>Switch between relative major and minor scales
Yeah that'd be the proper term. Depending on how far you go with it, you could get a Pixies vibe (a substitution every now and then), or something completely weird if you do it a lot (Queens of the Stone Age come to mind).
>>62399438
That works too, but it gives a different feel.
>>62399278
>not having static melody to variant chord progression
FULL PLEB
>>62399513
Static melody? You mean ostinato?
You realize you can combine chord progressions, counterpoint AND ostinato melodies, right?
>>62399513
so many corny mathrock bands do this
some banal repeated phrase layered with a predictable chord progression
awful
>>62399509
Depends, if you do a 4 chord progression like maybe
A F C# E
The E at the end leads back into the A chord. Having a melody on top helps too.
I hope I get fired from my job today
>>62399534
Also, this.
If counterpoint is a house with central heating, ostinato is rubbing two sticks together.
>>62399544
Oh yeah, that works. I'm still kind of new to chord progressions.
>>62398743

Ostinato is very uplifting my fellow negroes
tfw putting III (yeah, maj) instead of V at the end of a progression
it sounds even stronger to me
>>62400055
is this ostinato my breh?
https://youtu.be/BgfcToAjfdc?t=140
>>62400114
so the cadence is III to I?
>>62400150
yes
>Bm Gmaj Dmaj F#
>>62400235
Shit forgot the pic
>G G7 C Cm
>>62399327
that works with the ii and iii for me but vi sounds fucked somehow.
it works in Grimes - Venus Fly tho
i think the progression is: ii VI IV V (in Amaj key)

Thanks for all the great chord combos guys. off to make some great new songs.
>>62400300
using both the maj and min version of a chord in the same song
why?
>C Bdim Am G
Kill me
>>62400314
because that shit is fucking great
especially when it goes to the major right after the minor or vice versa
>C Gm/C C Dm6no3/C Amadd9
>>62400314
IV-iv-I cadence is common as fuck you retarded plen
>>62400314
In that case, C to Cm is a special kind of transition that evokes sad/nostalgic feelings, then you resolve it with the tonic (G). It's quite popular actually
>tfw any combination of I IV V vi
instant hit territory
>>62400325
C Bdim A# Am is nice tho
>>62400347
AKA the four chords of power
also I IV V, V
>>62400370
>I IV V Vm
meme chord progression
Only good thread on /mu/ i've seen in the last few months.
>>62400347
Add the
"intro-verse-chorus-verse-chorus-mid8-chorus-chorus"
structure and we are almost there.
>>62400362
Oh yeah, that sounds pretty cool.

Best progressions for inverted chords?
C - E7 - F - Fm - C/G - F - Fm - C/G - F
Guess the song
>>62400303
I think of it as B minor but it substitutes the E minor at the end for E major and it sounds nice.
>>62400380
It is a meme chord progression, thays why is so popular.
>>62400404
Hits don't have intros anymore, start directly from the chorus.
Also add pitbull rapping and we got a song of the year
Play this is in the opening rhythm of Surfs Up (right band playing chords, left hand playing singular but keeping the rhythm)
Gmin7 F6 Dmin7
It sounds like death!!!
>>62400464
sounds really familiar playing along
what is it?

What the fuck are you retards saying? Spam thread
>>62400576
I went to a music theory website and I know I feel like I'm the most educated person on earth too!
I bet we both have such good taste in music due to our advanced knowledge of the field.
>>62400601
And I bet he uses his KNOWLEDGE to make wonderful music!
>>62400534
can't figure it out
YOUVE GOT TO BE CRAZY
>>62400623
It's chorus of Space Oddity
yo what the fuck be this maj min nigga d7 type shit? keep it real negus
>>62400676
maj is major
min is minor
d7 would be a d major chord with an added 7th (as in the 7th note of a d major scale)
>>62400647
Fuck, so it is. Great progression.
>>62400728
yo thanks ma nigga, u is alrite mane,,,,,i be playin da pian0 n shitsoon bruhhhhh
Ok, but seriously that was informative, thank you for taking my retarded meme shit seriously. Not a racist, just find talking like a gangbanger to be absolutely hilarious. Vibe on good chum.
