Chord Progression This Week!

This weeks chord progression is really cool! Your chords are going to be:

Gm - F - C (four times) then Bb - C (twice)

I chose this progression since there has been some confusion around key signatures, especially when it comes to relative scales. I admit, this one adds fuel to the fire, so to speak, haha! I went into this one with the idea of a Dorian progression, meaning you could totally get away with playing purely pentatonic over it. That still works, however, I found myself sometimes hearing it as a more major progression, in which case, C Mixolydian is the answer.

Guess what? Those are relative scales! G Dorian and C mixolydian have the exact same notes, and same scale shape, just starting on a different note respectively! Haha, so do whatever you want!

Let me know how you guys hear this progression, does it sound more major or minor to you?

Have a great weekend-

Ben
