SlashBib Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Hi everyone ! I'm currently working on a cover of Windmill Hills (from DKC Tropical Freeze) and it's the first time that I work without any tabs/sheet music/MIDI files. My knowledge in music theory are very low and I absolutely don't have perfect pitch Found the melody was not a problem, but I'm not sure about the key and the chord progession. For now, I assume that the song is in E Major with an E-B-A progression. Is it correct ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 I got these chords in E major: E G# B F# B D#, but F# A D could be a cool variation C# E A F# A D is technically in D major, but it seems to fit to me. Remember that the progression does change at 1:06. I hear: A D F# A C# E F# A D And it changes again at 1:37. I hear: B E G# B D# F# B E G# A C# E B D# F# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteo Xavier Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 A little bit of a perpendicular suggestion, but you could ask David Wise himself on Facebook. He's pretty good and open to talking to fans on there and that could be a decent way to get a solution there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
