Thank you everyone and thanks to Matt for having me! Was a lot of fun. For those asking, yes, this is 31-EDO, and I used the NI Kontakt Scarbee A-200 for the Wurlitzer sound and Surge XT for most of the synth patches in the background. The various synth patches that fade in when I adjust the mod wheel, foot pedal, and the three special yellow Lumatone keys I set up, are all sending various custom CCs which change the volume of these layers. Glad you all like it; we have two more of these and stay tuned for the next ones!

This is possibly the most stunning performance I've ever heard

I can't figure out exactly what's going on but I think I just experienced microtonal music that I actually seriously enjoyed.

I don't really trust my ears in the world of microtonality, but I think this piece doesn't employ as many unusual intervals as most pieces out there, thus it soubds more familiar

@michaeljacksin9367 5 ай бұрын

Most electric guitar music has microtones also if there’s any bends or vibrato those have microtones in them

@keenanpepper Жыл бұрын

That tonality you hear around 0:30 is B Bayati, so the notes are B C-half-sharp D E over a B minor chord.

Oh HELL yeah! Start it off with bayati subminor 6, killing. The riff sounds gorgeous, great use of delay etc, it's like we're back in the 70's but with way better sound quality and technology. Did you record two tracks here, with that lower bass synth at the bottom? Or is that just a differently sculpted version of the same performance layered up? If you're using Pianoteq could I get you to send through your settings for this? It sounds glorious. Great playing of course as always, and very nice looking video! Keep it coming!

Accidental notes were invented around the 10th century, so people at that time at least knew the theory behind microtones and why and how to choose non natural notes to expand scales. Since then, these haven't caught on in ... uh over 1,000 years, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

@@gavinjenkins899 You know how ignorant you sound, right? I’m sure four wheels driven by some petrol-driven block of iron won’t catch on now. They’ve been around for some hundred years but why can’t people live with three or two wheels on their own foot power?

Hey Mike -- I have to ask since talent tends to run in families. Are you kin to Richard Battaglia that does all of Bela Fleck's audio engineering? Saw the name and was wondering. As for the video -- great work as always...you really bring out the best in any tuning you approach and I love it.
