Sevish - Enterprise (20 tone microtonal music) (2011x1)

Uitzenddatum: Mrt 03, 2011

Liquid drum and bass using microtonal scales. In this case, the music is written in the Blackwood decatonic mode of 20-tone equal temperament. This is a scale that contains 10 notes, but those 10 notes pack in a whopping 5 major and 5 minor chords. Any note can be the root notes of a consonant triad, and any note can easily be set up as the tonic while modulating. It's a face melting experience to write in this tuning so you should definitely do it now. Or just listen to Enterprise. The middle section has tuned percussion that play a Shepard-tone esque musical progression. It continues to descend seemingly forever without reaching a tonal center. This is only possible because of the Blackwood decatonic scale!
