Hi TOny,

Just what the doctor ordered this site...of course there's nothing else besides minors...just as Ian Stewart (Stones) used to say..."if the key is major I won't play it"!!!  

Every e-mail is a big laughter! I really appreciate being here.

Thank y'all

Roberto

Roberto you have joined the correct group of people.
Are there any other chords besides minors?

Surely we all love miserable self indulgent crap, why else would we be here? Bring on the block chords!

PS link doesn't show on the list site, so will have to catch up with it later, sounds good though.

and so am I...I just bought a M-Tron pro...and as soon as I understand how this beast works I promise to self-indulge in never ending massive tron chords, brass, violins, accordion, whatever comes across...all minor of course...not a single 'happy' note...something like Tangerine Dream's "Mysterious Semblance at the Strand of Nightmares" or Popol Vuh's "Aguirre"...on a loop....extremely boring and self-indulgent AND pretentious...all true qualities of a Tron lover.
