E Cinematic Minor — i – VI – III – VII
The E i–VI–III–VII cinematic minor progression (Em – C – G – D) stays within the natural minor scale, shifting between minor darkness and major brightness. With seventh chords (Em7 – CMaj7 – GMaj7 – D7), it gains the atmospheric depth of film scores and dramatic pop.
