Chords For Melodic And Dreamy Shoegaze

A new Shoegaze progression featuring big 7th chords with the 5th in the bass. This one is written in standard tuning in the key of E major. I really tried to stick to a balanced arrangement, focusing a lot, on the bottom 4 strings. Pretty happy with the results!

General take away's from this progression

1) when you use a voicing set, make sure to keep your preceding chords in a similar register for a smooth sound. For example, if you play a 4 note voicing on the EADG strings, you are setting a compositional precedent. Follow up with notes on those same strings in the next chord. 

2) E major is a great shoegaze key

3) 4-1 all day. 

Comments

Ah, is it the Dmaj13/A -> Amaj9/E and the Amaj7 -> Emaj7/B at the end?

What do you mean with 4-1? In E Major that would be A -> E, no? I didn't see any occurence of this.

Thank you :) I greatly appreciate this.
