it's a cliche chord movement, but oh so nice. try this for starters:
G,D,F,B
G,C,E,B
G,C,Eb,A
G,B,D,G

Do you use the harmomic/melodic minor when you go up in a minor scale and a natural/alieon when you go back down or is that just for when writing classical music?
I think stuff like Irish music uses the natural when going up or down but I really like using the F# in A minor cos I like to be able to use a d major when writing stuff in A minor. But my chord progressions are still pretty boring as I can never get past using the root, iv,v and vi and inversions. Do you/can you use a minor V and major V chords in the same track.
And is a major 7th one one tone below the root and a minor 7th is one semitone below the root?
I'm probably talking crap here but I ain't no musician.

maj 7th is a semi-tone below the root.
As for your ascending and descending voicings, it's what fits harmonically with everything else
around it, and what you are trying to infer, chordally with your voicings. There's no strict rule
that fits every time.
