Wish I could write songs like that; most of mine only have two chords at most. Yours is much more interesting to listen to. I've had great fun jamming to it too. As soon as I figure out WTF to play over the A7 Dsus4 E7 A7 that sounds right to me, I'll send you an ogg and/or MIDI file. I love that Abmaj7; I tend to use that chord a lot too. Whomever it was that played a harmonic minor or Hungarian minor scale over the D7 did the right thing IMHO. I keep finding myself doing that too and AFAICT it seems to work really well. This is a great model for collaboration too. Have you heard of http://www.ccmixter.org ? It seems to be populated with a lot of DJ/trance/hiphop/house type players/producers, but it's a good place to put a track or loop and let others interpret/remix it. Hmm, maybe the world needs a linuxmixter.org? I'll bet all the code for ccmixter is GPL (or, CC "share-alike"). - -ken -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFF/g/Re8HF+6xeOIcRApfhAJ9F/A5Z/nNYn/lowt2ghokz0DpfHACeN2rg r3RykNYrwd5nml/huqpklos= =UHRm -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
