Question about the keys of tracks

I thought I'd post it in a DJ thread but then again the people in this thread are more active and experienced.
I was sorting my music by keys and found that some tracks were composed in keys C#min and G#min which were not included in Camelot wheel. Can anyone advise what the correspoding keys of these 2 keys above are? I use Camelot wheel for harmonic mixing, hence I need to know the corresponding keys.
Thanks all! |

| Look at corresponding keys for Cmin and Gmin and just transpose that chord up a semitone. |

| I am just curious why these keys are not included in Camelot? |

| Probably to keep the wheel a manageable size. If you know the relationship between one set of chords, you know them all. It's just transposition. |

without looking probably based on cycle of fifths?
you can see the relative major of C sharp minor is E major. relative keys use the same notes - hence work well together even though one is major and the other minor
I think the idea behind the cycle of fifths is the closer the keys are to each other, the closer there relationship and more likely to work together. As with everything though, your ear has the final say
edit have looked. yes it is based on cycle of fifths so imo why not got straight to the source and skip the camelot wheel ? |
