IV – V – I – vi progression in G# major
G# Unresolved Cycle — IV – V – I – vi
The G# IV–V–I–vi progression (C# – D# – G# – Fm) creates a hypnotic, cyclical feel by ending on the minor vi chord instead of resolving to the tonic. With extended voicings (C#Maj7 – D#7 – G#Maj7 – Fm7), the unresolved quality becomes even more dreamy.
