One of my favorite keys to play in is Eb....so I just wanted to share some pretty good sounding progressions or chords in the key of Eb that you could play maybe while someone is talking or whenever...just play around with them and see what you come up with....If anyone would like to have these in another key let me know....thanks to LGM I can pretty much translate these into the key of C, Bb, Ab, Db, F, and maybe A  ;D ;D  I posted some of these in the key of C in the jazz forum
these are a bit jazzy so here we go

I'm lazy so i just skipped that completely.

Chevonee can you post a MIDI? Or for that fact can anyone? I am not that great with coming up with rythm on my own :)

Dang musallio, am I going to have to get a dictionary in order to talk to you....LOL (just kidding) :D :D :D
These chords are pretty old, I hope they are all correct cause I did this when I first learned how to transpose without the transpose button. If there are any mistakes please correct them, I don't mind. :)
Oh and Fenix, I don't have any midi equipment. Hopefully someone can help though. If you check out the videos that I posted you will see a video done by DDw4e where he teaches the 7-3-6-2-5-1-4 progression which is what helped me.
