| Jul 13, 2017 at 0:18 | comment | added | cat pants | Is a "tonic" different from the "root"? | |
| Jul 12, 2017 at 22:17 | comment | added | jdjazz | It means your song is in the key of CMaj--that's the "home base" and the place where the chords tend to resolve/want to move to. It's the tonal center for the entire song. | |
| Jul 12, 2017 at 15:02 | comment | added | jdjazz | When working with a major tonic, you can modulate down a whole step for a sad sound. For example, here's a progression that might work in the tonal center of CMaj: Emin - Amin - Emin - CMaj - GMaj - FMaj - GMaj - FMaj. Or you could just do: CMaj - CMaj - BbMaj - BbMaj | |
