Chorale in 31-tone equal temperament

Featured Replies

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 @benyamind,

That’s interesting, the microtone does create some special effect. @PeterthePapercomPoser must be interested to find this as well haha.

Hello @benyamind!

I find the harmonies in this otherworldly and rich.  The choral soundscape washes over with the thick church-like reverb.  For a piece that is comprised of only chords it sure is quite interesting!  I admit that on first listen I didn't appreciate it as much as I do now.  It's definitely grown on me.  Thanks for sharing!

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!
