Pedal Point: Tension Builder
130 BPM•rock
Use a pedal-point progression (E–E/D–E/C#–E/B): moving bass under a static chord for tension, intros, and big chorus builds—plus voicing ideas.
Imaj7–IVmaj7–V7–Imaj7: Smooth Ballad Color
72 BPM•ballad
Add lush ballad harmony in E (Emaj7–Amaj7–B7–Emaj7): rich voicings for piano or guitar, great for R&B slow jams and love themes for better voice leading.
I–V–vi–iv: Borrowed Minor IV Pop
98 BPM•ballad
Add a bittersweet twist in E (E–B–C#m–Am) using a borrowed minor iv chord, perfect for emotional pop ballads, chorus drops, and modern songwriting for guitar.
I–IV–V–IV: Anthem Chorus Wave
136 BPM•rock
Build an anthem chorus wave in E (E–A–B–A): big rock harmony for stadium hooks, power-chord riffs, and chorus melodies that ride the IV chord lift for guitar.
