I'm working on a tune, but I'm having some trouble incorporating a theme that I want to use.
It arpeggiates D#(drop 5, flat 9), C#(drop 5). It has a nice phrygian ring to it, but it seems so stable to me that I'm having trouble progressing into and out of it.
Basically it sounds a lot like this:

Any help would be appreciated.
Besides that, do you guys have any favourite chord progressions?

do the chords include the major thirds in addition to the removed fifths and added flat 9?
>>73036629
maybe mess around with A-flat7 and g
>>73036800
>>73036629
Oh wait I thought I read C not C#. Maybe A-flat7 and F or f instead
>>73036688
Ah, whoops. I meant drop 3 for both of those. My mistake
That said, you could also think of it as D#(drop 3), C#min/E, since its an arpeggio.
>>73036886
wouldn't D#(drop 3) be better written as D#5, like a power chord? and i would assume you still have the flat 9 too. so then you would have this?
how do i into theory to apply to guitar
>>73036965
Yeah, that is correct.
But the flat 9 in the first chord is sort of optional though, since it shows up in the next one.
Attached is the arpeggio
Been mucking about on the keyboard on the keyboard meanwhile
I found I can try following it with Gmin/D, Adim/C if I want to fly off into C dorian.
Still looking for some other solutions though, I'm planning on having that theme occur a couple of times.

Try out Andrew Wasson on Youtube. I don't play guitar myself, but I find he's got plenty of good videos.

maybe something like this?

Oooh yes. Thanks Dan :)
Not sure if that second E note in the final bar is flattened or not. I found both very helpful though.
For instance, I could use that last F# as a leading tone into G or F, and reverse the direction of the arpeggio.

no problem, happy to help

also the E is a natural, following along with the bass pattern of D#-E
