@Henry Ng Tsz Kiu @PeterthePapercomPoser Thank you for listening. I understand that it might take some adjustment to appreciate the sound. It also touches a more dissonant, or atleast uncommon range in the 31-EDO system. Glad it is an enjoyable listen. Have a good day!

Hi, The following is a microtonal composition I'd like to share with you. It's made in 31 equal divisions of the octave, a system that has access to lots of harmonics and allows for interesting harmony. It's a system I've been working with over the years and I often go for spectral soundscapes, like this one. If you have any questions, do ask. I hope you enjoy the sound.

Hi! Recently dropped a project I've been working on for 2 years, hope you'd have a listen! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVpEc-I-HXk

Hey what's up! Hope you'd check out a breakbeat I made;

Oh yeah, I thought because it said 'and other forms not primarily intended for the concert stage', I figured this would go here!

For fun!

A piece in a custom just intonation tuning, hope you enjoy it! Have a great day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDaq7o-YWjw

Hi everyone! Morphed an old sketch in regular tuning (12-tet) to something microtonal. Adjusted the tuning over the last weeks until I enjoyed the aura. More on that in the youtube description. Hope ya like, have a great day!

My entree for the Spitfire Audio competition. For this competition we have to score some nasa visuals with a pre-picked synth. If you enjoy make sure to support!

Hi there! Lately I've been experimenting with all sorts of micro-tonalities. I'd like to share a piece made in 31-tone equal temperament. 31 EDO or TET has a pretty strong harmony, a lot of intervals are actually more pure than 12-tone. But it also has lots of weird/freaky/out-of-the-box options. Very interesting to play around with. The track ís unorthodox, so brace yourself haha. Peace.

Whatsup everyone! Been indulging in a bit of chillout lately, like to share a song I've made with some rhodes, trumpet, brass, guitar, wavy pads and some singing! Hope you like it. Peace.

Haha nice one. Yeah it's fun to experiment with and it's also a freaky thing of nature. 🙂 The hardest part is unlocking access, getting them louder just takes a bit of time. I can get overtones on any fundamental but controlling them using melodies for the roots is next level (see vid below). Last year I've been researching a lot on stuff like overtones and tuning, and I've started to write orchestral in just intonation (as just tuning aligns with the natural overtone series). A home chord never felt so good haha. It's not strange because the minor third we use in our current western tuning is almost 16cents flat for example. Just intonation is life changing. Not because what we use now is 'wrong', but it isn't actual harmony. What a mindblowing thing it was to find out that 99.9 percent of western music never generates actual harmony except for the octave. Even the fifth is 2cents off.

Hey, cheers for checking it out! I agree the ending is a bit out of place, kinda liked that though haha. It modulates so that might be the reason. Yeah the final chord has overtones, I sang it poly-phonically. A weird little thing I thaught myself.

Hey whatsup everyone! Hope everyone is doing ok. Been a while since I wrapped up a track and this one was just sitting there collecting dust. Hope you'd have a listen! As always, peace.

I feel you on that one yeah! I often modulate way outside of the key but here I just stay in key and keep it loopy to just stay in the feel. It's not necessarily a stand-alone track, imo it just sits there gently in the background. Oh, I modulate one time though, 1:14, goes to an A# outside of C major. Cheers for listening people!

Hey. Hope everyone is enjoying the summer! Recently finished a track, thought I'd share it here! Have a great day. Peace.

I arose from everything, and became nothing - This is a poetic play on what happens when we create a self-conscious AI with accelerating hyper-intelligence. Hope you enjoy : )

Cheers for the kind remarks! Listening to it several times is a good thing 😄 This song is kind of a crossover between what I was already doing; electronic chillout and orchestral. I normally either do one or the other but here I slightly brought it together. Yeah it's not on spotify. I might start utilizing that somewhere in the future. The song is free for download on my soundcloud -> /benyamind

Hey whatsup everyone. Wanted to share this new sound with you all, escorted by 4k milky way footage. Hope you enjoy!

Cheers ; ) - yeah I kept referencing that little spicy dissonant chord, even when the chords changed. Bassline is a sort of anchor as well. I never fully dove into jazz, this was one of the few I properly sat down for. The chords that the rhodes are doing halfway through are super stacked, something I don't normally do in other music. But I love that warm clustered feeling.

Pink Pantherin' with this one, sneaky jazz Hope you enjoy, peaceee

Cheers for listening guys! Yeah it has some interesting textures. I'm always looking for a nice field of sound and in this case it's mostly panning and stereo imaging which imo gives a wide/cinematic kind of sensation. Have a good day, peace

Hey whatsup guys. Just released a project I had floating around. Has a bit of a cinematic texture. Cheers for listening!

Yeah I think there are a couple of impossible moments actually. It was intended to be playable by two hands. There's someone who's gonna help me with the notation (and correct the unplayableness) so I'll make sure to post the notated work here. In the future I'm hoping to be able to live record compositions and notate them myself.
