Not really a Jazz musician. I was just writting down some of the more uncommon chord progressions I've come up with.

To extend on the topic. How do you come up with your own chord progressions?? I usually take them one note at a time and just build on that. Like I start with just a root progression like G, C, and D. Then I'll think of a harmony to play over that. Like E, D, and C. Then I'll fill in the rest to make a complete chord, whether it's major or minor or whatever. Maybe I'll end up with. Gmaj6 // Cm9 // D7 //. Or even start out with the harmonic part and then the root part, or which ever order. Works out rather nicely. :)
