F Andalusian Cadence — i – VII – VI – V

The F Andalusian Cadence (Fm – Eb – Db – C) is a descending minor progression rooted in Flamenco. Its dramatic resolution to a major V chord creates intense, fatalistic tension. With seventh voicings (Fm7 – Eb7 – DbMaj7 – C7), it gains an even richer, darker color.
