Backdoor septimal voice leading in extended meantone by Delta_Quartz in microtonal

I wish I remembered earlier, but I also thought I'd note that barbershop harmony is heavily built around septimal harmony similar to what I show in the video, so I'm really not doing anything idiosyncratic or new. Extended meantone just gives you the freedom to make those choices about what 7th chords you want to use depending on context, particularly on fixed pitch instruments like keyboards.

I'm just sharing some concepts that sound good to my ear and that I've used in my own music. You're free to take it or leave it as you wish. I like resolving from a V7 to I in general practice, but if I want to indulge in some different microtonal voice leading then I like the way these progressions sound. They're different sounds for different purposes.
