Building Chord Progressions

vi → IV → I → V

The dramatic, building progression used in movie trailers and epic moments. Starts minor, resolves to triumphant major.

i → VI → III → VII

The driving EDM progression that builds before the drop. Bm-G-D-A creates urgency that resolves through the major chords. This i-VI-III-VII became the signature sound of 2010s EDM anthems.
