The chord leading refernce diagram will show us that a
1 chord can lead to any number within the scale 1-7.
In addition, it tells us that 1 mostly leads to either
the 5 chord or perhaps the 4 chord. Keep in mind this
particular little suggestion... Just about 95% of
times, you are going to head back to the 1 chord
coming from either 4, 5 or 7. This is exactly what
some of us musicians call "bringing it home". Many
chord progreessions are only 3 to 4 chords in any
series. Oftentimes you might have five or six or more
distinctive chords in a chord progression however this
isn't typical in hip hop or R&B. That is more
prevalent in gospel music and ballads. Therefore,
study your scales! This is actually the initial step
to getting out of the deep when you are arranging your
sounds. Music is dependant on the scales. Each and
every note you play on an instrument is associated
with a selected scale and 99.9% of the time will only
sound effective compared to other notes within that
same exact scale. Whether it be major, minor,
harmonic, blues... whatever. Peace!
