Feb 3, 2015 at 20:14 comment added Matt L. Try everything to learn about the possibilities, but you'll probably find out the functional harmony doesn't work so well in phrygian. Phrygian compositions are often based on riffs, either as a single note melody line, or in perfect fifths.
Feb 3, 2015 at 19:50 comment added mey I should probably also try Bm7b5. What do you think? ☺
Feb 3, 2015 at 19:37 comment added mey Thanks @MattL. As for the use of B major - perhaps i should have used B7 (either way the mode is slightly altered). To me the resolution sounds nicer than that of B dim triad, not sure if that is just my subjective feeling, or it is really the case.
Feb 3, 2015 at 19:31 comment added Matt L. If you hear Am as the final chord, then you hear the scale as A aeolian (which has of course the same notes as E phrygian). Try to use an F or a Dm before the Em chord. Also note that there is no B major chord in E phrygian (because you don't have a D#).
