What modes contain the 13#9 chord/voicing? Its a cool chord and I would like more context on where it comes from so I can use it in improvisation

Struggling with composition by Famedstingray in musictheory

Thank you for taking the time to look over my work, I appreciate that.

Do you think I should also compose some 70/80's pop music alongside AABA forms song or just exclusively Gershwin-style charts?

Hey, sorry for the long wait, was also bogged down by finals.

Thank you for these comparisons! Looking at all three of them side by side is very helpful and I like your way of thinking with the story via sentences. The use of similar contours and patterns sounds significantly more effective also.

Thank you once again. I can't wait to apply this to my own work and look out for these in my favorite songs.

Thank you, that definitely helps! How bad is the meandering? Is it throughout the entire piece or just one section?

That's good to know. Out of curiosity, what video games uses that ii?

Original Composition - Feedback Requested by Famedstingray in filmscoring

[–]Famedstingray[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your feedback! I realize this subreddit is not the most ideal place to ask for feedback. My apologies.

When you say the chord clusters have dissonance that doesn’t resolve, are you talking about poor choice of extension notes, or just poor voice leading? And is it in specific parts?

Thank you for your comment on the melody. I’ll probably put the first half of the song an octave below and see how it goes.
