Hi Everyone,
Community Challenges are a fun, low-stakes opportunity to practice using what you've learned here. It's not about writing a whole song, but about executing on a specific concept with whatever time you have. It's about practicing writing or getting into "the practice of writing."
This challenge is: Write something in a Major Key using a Minor iv chord.
I just posted a lesson about this yesterday in a new mini series I'm calling "Cool Chord Progressions." Based on that video, you're allowed to use a proper minor iv chord in a major key, OR the other two common substitutes for the minor iv chord. If you watch the video, you'll know what I'm talking about!
Post your creation here on the community forum.
You're welcome to participate in any previous community challenge at any time!

I had a lot of fun with this one - it basically turned into soloing practice.
