Arpeggios / strongest chord
on: November 29, 2010, 02:53:38 PM
hello, i was writing some bit's earlier and wrote an arpeggio... And i was a touch confused as to the strongest / best chord to lie underneath the arpeggio.. The note's were ;

B E G B E A C E

So it was an A minor over an E minor, but i wasn't too sure which chord i should run with, ?

the sequence of chord's was

Cm7 / ** / Fmaj7 / 

Cm7 / Em / F

i lean towards using A minor because it fall's into the Fmaj7 nicely...  so at the moment i'm going ;

Cm7 (P) / Am (1st inv) / Fmaj7 (3rd inv)

Cm7 (P) / Em (2nd inv) / Fmaj7 (3rd inv)


i was just wondering if anyone had any advice / tip's on these sort's of things, ? i guess anything to do with chord colouring, moving, or just any anything would be welcome.

cheers!
