Hi all,

Its my first time on the forum. I hope somebody can help me with what I'm after!

My question is-

What notes make up what chords??

I'm a Dj, and I'm trying to understand a little bit more about music production. I want to know what keys are compatible with each other so I can work with them in terms of mixing records!

Hope I make sense, hope somebody can help!!

Cheers guys,

Sean

chords are genarally in 3rds

F_A_C or g-b-d-f#

Moving in fourths or fifths when changing keys is usually more pleasing to the ear.

F to Bb or C

C to F or G

There are several online music theory sites that might help.
http://www.musictheory.halifax.ns.ca/lessons.html
and
http://www.musictheory.net/
are two of the best. On the first one scroll down to the bottom and click free lessons.
The second is the most comprehensive.
