==Suspended Seven Chord==  
==Suspended Seven Chord==  
Anybody familiar with 12 ET pop music has heard of suspended chords which come in either sus4 or sus2 variety. In this sense, both chords form a suspension which originally meant to resolve to the third in the chord. Some xen musicians consider 11/6 to be a new sort of suspended, neutral like sound which can work too as a suspension resolving to either the octave or the major/minor seventh of a chord. While it throws a new quality and color in the chord compared to sus4 or sus2, sus7 chords generally have a somewhat reminiscent quality of suspended chords.

Some xen musicians consider 11/6 to be a new sort of suspended, neutral like sound which can work too as a suspension resolving to either the octave or the major/minor seventh of a chord. Thus, a chord of 6:9:11 can be considered a sus7 chord. Unlike it's close neighbors, 11/6 has a floaty like sound which works perfectly for that light sound people want in modern music yet is xen enough to feel fresh. While it throws a new quality and color in the chord compared to sus4 or sus2, sus7 chords generally have a somewhat reminiscent quality of suspended chords.


Technical name is a Neutral Seventh Omit 5 but sus7 tends to work.
