Had a go! I think its this: F#7 - A-/G - C#7/G# - A-/G But it's all about the spread voicings and the contrary motion! The second A-/G sounds more resolved with the A on top of the chord (Unless I'm missing something).

Almost as if the journalist had some kind of assistance with the writing... There is something v interesting about the challenge AI presents to assessment. It calls out some things which were never that great in the first place.

My Bandcamp subscription is always £30 a year. For everything. There's no upper tier for rich people, no 'donation' level where you just give me money for doing nothing. That's less than a £3/month patreon offer, and you get literally all the music I make, normally between 8-12 albums a year...

And I wish you well - music can be a great resource and music therapy a potentially helpful way to go. I hope you can find what you need.

Just saw a post on SM with a bloke skipping in time to music described as ‘music therapy’. If you’re curious about #musictherapy as a potential client/participant or prospective trainee, just to let you know, it’s a LOT more interesting than that.
