— About this chord

A#mMaj7 combines a minor third with a major seventh for the dark, suspenseful sound heard in jazz-noir and classic film-score writing -- the harmonic signature of creeping tension and unresolved mystery. Common as a i-chord in minor-key jazz standards and a favorite for moody chromatic voice-leading. Also searched as BbmMaj7.
