As we described in the post 35, power chords essentially are composed by 2 only notes, and are mainly of 3 types, minors, majors, and neutrals. In the same post 35 we described a method of improvisation for relaxation music based on power chords.
We extend this method here as a method of composition of chord progressions.
We choose a base of power chords,B= (Xi, i=1,2.3...n) where the Xi are an arc in the wheel of chords by 4ths. e.g. i=1,2,3 a minor X1, a major X2 and a neutral X3. Then we compose the chord-progressions as a sequence Xi Y1 Xj Y2 Xk Y3 etc where Xi, Xj, Xk are power chords from the base B. In other words we alternate power-chords from the base with any other type of chords. The result is essentially rather harmonic, and easy to listen.
Of course this method has an easy extension for relaxing improvisation which is , that we alternate power chords with small pieces of melodies by 2-3 or more notes, pieces of melody without simultaneous chord accompaniment without conscious compatibility rules between the power-chords and the pieces of melodies as they are alternating and not simultaneously sounding.
