Do chord progressions have to follow numerical order? I'm working on a piece of music and I'm liking I v iv instead of I iv v it's this okay?
Also, what would this be called? Is it some kind of mode?cheers -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE  “Success is not obtained overnight.

Thanks Ben,
I realise I worded my question incorrectly but you got what I meant, I was meaning I(i) to be the 1st chord but then I wrote it down all wrong. Thanks, I am now liberated

QUOTE (Caelumamittendum @ Oct 29 2021, 09:27 PM)  Honestly, in this part of your creative process, or from what I've heard/read/seen, I'd just focus on doing what you think sounds good and less about what "rules" there are. In my opinion it should be fun to compose music, not like a boxed in thing of feeling like you HAVE to use a certain progression, certain chords and so on. Of course there's merit to knowing these theoretical aspects of describing what you write, but don't box yourself in or limit your creative thinking. If you want to have a chord that uses all 12 notes, go for it! I think the key is to do it purposefully and with intent (which can come in many forms and shapes). Thanks Ben I understand what you say. If you read Gab's comment here https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...st&p=711280 from this thread https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...t=0&start=0 and Gab says pretty much the same. Thanks for your help Ben, much appreciated. On another note, after I've created my next one for my Serenity Dimension project https://open.spotify.com/album/27YX8maOWsTa...ource=copy-link would you like to collaborate with me? 50/50 split on any, if any payments?

Cheers Gab is wise, so no surprise there!  And of course I'll collaborate... on one condition, which is that you keep the payments 100%, if there is any  Unless it goes viral and gets you 2 million GBP, in which case I'll take this: https://reverb.com/item/40476561-ibanez-r94...r-6-string-case ... but you keep the rest  |

QUOTE (Todd Simpson @ Oct 30 2021, 08:48 PM) I have to agree with Gabe and Ben. it really does come down to your ears and what you think sounds good much more so than the actual theory behind it. You can play pretty much anything as long as it sounds good. Even if it's not correct in terms of music theory. I liked your latest song and hope to see it expanded a bit. I think you and ben can come up with some really cool. so far, i don't think it's much beyond the one chord so choosing a second chord to modulate too would be step one. Most music is just a few chords. You can cover a lot of ground on just G, C, D, A and E chords of just about any type.Thanks Todd, As said, that piece "End Of Day" ("Lonely Desolation") was pulled from a Creativity Workshop and not, per se , created for relaxation, I used it as a springboard into Spotify. I'd like to do an expanded version one day so maybe Ben and I could work on that
