Hallo guys,

Is there someone who can help me find good sounding chords for the mine melodies? I am willing to pay for, because its not fair to ask something like this for free as it takes a lot of time do it.

So are there people in this forum who give lessons or other kind of help online?

Please let me know.

I don't want you to pay me, but I will give you some advice.

Try to take your melody notes, and fit them into chords based on how you want it to feel. Tonal things generally move in ascending/descending 5ths (or 4ths, which is essentially the same thing) or steps. Sometimes they move in 3rds, but that's more commonplace of modern music. The V-I is a very powerful thing, use it. The iii - vi - ii - V7 - I is really powerful too, though you might want to use alterations or extensions.

Also, take pieces you love and study the chord progressions. After a while, you get really good at it.
I am trying to become Franz Liszt. Trying. And failing.

I have no clue if I can be of any help, but I'm more than happy to try. At the end, you can just scrap it all if you want. harrisonrichter01@gmail.com is my email, feel free to send me a message. I'll see what I can do, and you need not pay me :D Like the previous poster said, III-vi-II- V7 is very powerful, though if you're in a minor key, it's usually better to change the II to a ii.

You don't need to offer money, this kind of thing is actually fun to most musicians.
