    A band that used Maj7 chords a lot is the Smiths. I think it actually is one of the reasons why their music sounds so modern compared to other bands from the 80s, since the 80s was very much the era of the Dominant 7 chords, while the 2020s has seen a resurgence of Maj7 chords.

    Maybe instead of playing the full triad chords on the distorted guitars u could replace them with 5 power chords and double stops(the 1 and the 3 of the chord your replacing)

  • @WriteASong

  • @jesseoliver3183
    @jesseoliver318329 күн бұрын

    This may seem like a dumb question but is it still considered a key change if you switch modes? So like if i was to play e phrygian and then switch into e locrian would that be considered a key change?

  • @WriteASong
    @WriteASong28 күн бұрын

    Yes it would be with parallel modes, those with the same root note like the examples you gave. It can become a bit more complicated moving between relative modes, which use the same notes. For example, C major and A Aeolian use the same notes and therefore the same set of chords. A lot of it comes down to whether you have established a new tonal centre or if you are just briefly borrowing a chord or note. I hope that helps.

    At 20:03, the chord E7 appears, but G7 is played instead. Also, at 19:44 the chord Am is on the screen, but C major is played instead.
