Hey Everyone,
This idea was inspired by the long chord progressions featured in some of David's modules. I found a cool website that generates random lists of numbers. You can determine the range of the numbers and some other parameters. I really wanted more practice on my sus/add chords and 7th chords, so I assembled 35 or so chords I wanted to practice and assigned them each a number. Then I used this free program to generate a random list of numbers and, voila, I had a custom, randomized chord progression. I *thought* I knew the chords much better than I actually did. This randomized approach forced me to go back and forth between chords I never would put side by side, and I think that's helping really learn the chords inside and out.
