That's interesting. I'm working on a song right now that incorporates a lot of these ideas about building the song up as you move along. I didn't even realize it as a strategy, just heard it so often in other popular songs that I just naturally wanted to do it myself.

Shifting keys in the middle of a song sometimes sounds really good, but can be tricky with a guitar....especially trying to transpose minor7's and such.

minor 7th s should be easier to play than regular minors if you are barring.
