There is an alternate universe where i pursued music as a career and got really into microtonal music
#the kneejerk reaction of 'oh god thats out of tune' is SO strong in my brain bc ive was classically trained#but also we just. dont have microtonality in western music. we have our 12 notes and our 7 modes#but like. persian classical music has 50+ modes#we've been robbed of so much variation of sound and mood and style by not embracing microtonality#youtube suggested this iranian musician's channel that im about to fall headfirst into#i think this guy plays like. Evry Instrument lmao#and he studies diff musical traditions from around the world and hes very good at explaining things#anyways. music good. i like it. makes my ears happy#my brain is chewing on microtones like a bag of crunchy chips
