40 Songs that use Descending Stepwise chord progressions

Thanks to Hooktheory for sponsoring this video. https://www.hooktheory.com/davidbennett 🎼 A descending stepwise chord progression is any chord progression that works its way down the scale, one step at a time. The chords will be voiced in such a way to allow the bass line to simply walk down the scale. And, an extra special thanks goes to Douglas Lind, Vidad Flowers, Ivan Pang, Waylon Fairbanks, Jon Dye, Austin Russell, Christopher Ryan, Toot & Paul Peijzel, the channel’s Patreon saints! 😇 SUPPORT ME ON PATREON:   / davidbennettpiano   🎹 0:00 Introduction 0:37 Examples 2:14 How the progression is built 3:32 6 steps progressions 3:53 5 steps progressions 7:31 Hook Theory 8:15 4 steps progressions 9:13 Why does it work?
