Q. I'm writing a song right now, on piano (but it's just chords so far it'd work for guitar too) and so far, the chords I'm using are D#, Bb, C#, G# -- in that order. What are some other chords that would sound good with that? I'm thinking that would be the chorus, and I wanted verses that were similar but different from the chorus, and then maybe a prechorus and bridge that sound different but good together. If that made sense? Pleasee help! :)
A. You stumbled upon a Plagal cadence. Your song seems to be in Ab major and you've written a chord progression of V, ii (you should use Bb minor, not major), IV, I. The numbers refer to the base note's position in the scale of the key. The last two chords will sound like the "Amen" at the end of a hymn.
If you want to do a standard pop song-y chord progression, I, IV, V, I would be a safe bet. (In this case with your key of Ab, that would be AbM, DbM, EbM, AbM). If you want to do something that leads into the end of the piece, ii, vi, IV, V, I is about the most standard ending chord progression there is. (Bbm, fm, DbM, EbM, AbM).
You can read more about chord progressions on wikipedia here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_progression
Or really, you should just take a music theory class if you want to learn anything about this stuff. Order matters and how you get from one chord to another and how chords are built, etc. etc. It's not like cooking soup where you can just throw all the ingredients in and have a song.
