hi i make music occasionally and release music never, for the most part. I'm too sad to finish anything at the moment, so this will mostly just be a bunch of demos. uhh, ask me anything I guess? why would you want to ask me anything?

I actually seek out this post on a weekly basis just to listen to that demo track. It's so freaking good
(demo for clarinet, piano, and NES. all instruments use alpha tuning centered at middle C = ~261.6hz)
in her 1986 release beauty in the beast, wendy carlos introduced “alpha tuning,” an alternative to the common western 12-tone tuning system.
rather than dividing an octave (the distance from middle C to high C, a 2/1 frequency ratio) into 12 equal steps, alpha tuning divides a perfect fifth (about the distance from C to G, a 3/2 frequency ratio) into 9 equal steps.
Tumblr media
this diagram shows where the notes of each tuning fall relative to a typical piano keyboard. while both include middle C and G, every other note differs at least somewhat. in alpha tuning, major thirds (the distance from C to E) are flatter, and minor thirds (the distance from E to G) are sharper, but both still sound quite nice. on the other hand, in alpha tuning the octave (the distance from middle C to high C) is completely missing! it falls right in between two notes of the scale.
but alpha tuning has unique pitches of its own. my favorite is the 2-step interval, sometimes called a “neutral 2nd”. this interval divides the minor 3rd exactly in half, and has no equivalent in so-called standard tuning. it appears throughout the demo above.
today, many software packages support alpha tuning. for more on wendy carlos’ tunings, see her article in Computer Music Journal and the xenharmonic wiki.

Heads up i guess. Bandcamp told me to announce my album that's going to release in a few days, so I'm doing that here.
I'm sure this is really going to guarantee my success and prosperity

I love Dolores Catherino's music so much. She uses so many big, atmospheric chords with that ASMR-esque buzzing quality to them.
Microtonal and polychromatic music make my mouth literally water in a good way. Some new stuff from Dolomuse on the Lumatone in 56 EDO (that's an octave broken into 56 subdivisions instead of, for example, the common western 12-tone scale).
This is at the mellow end of the "what you can do with microtones" field of play, ambient and delicious - and mouthwatering.
