Your examples here point more specifically in the direction of FUNCTION and MODE, rather than simply "related". I hope this helps! Please feel free to add a comment if you would like more information or would like to clarify anything. Depending on the intent, mood, style, and composition of the music, any key works as a closely-related cousin to any other key in Western music! This point is more toward your comment that there is no b-diminished scale while true, there is a B Locrean scale, which reads in steps as Half-Whole-W-H-W-W-W.
There are also modes (C major scale is also C Ionian mode A minor scale is also A aeolian) which can be built in the same way off of any 'home' key. So, if you find a closely-related key set in Western classical, it will also prove to be in existence in Western popular.Īdditionally, you do not have to start at C to find closely-related keys (this may have been an example on your part) any note will work to perform the same functions (Bb / A#, Fb / E, Cb and B, etc.) - the only real difference between them is the spelling of the note (A# vs Bb, Fb vs E) and their respective function placements. The short answer is yes - all closely-related keys are available in modern popular, classical, jazz, and every other Western music genre that is currently in existence. If I understand your question correctly, you are asking if there are closely-related keys in modern popular music in the same fashion as classical music.
