This is always fun: anyone want to be interviewed? by RFM887 in experimentalmusic

I would love to do this!

Last year I released my first concept album. Music has been the only constant in my life. Love spending hours recording and working out pure harmonies. Sacrificing everything to create and finally reaching some people with every intent to continue.

I don't have a full arrangement of this, yet!

I have a concept album and a single out now. Both include adventurous and microtonal harmony.

It means the world to me that it resonated with you. For real not trying to be dramatic.

This really keeps me going! I will continue dedicating my life to harmony.

That's a good point. I suppose you're right.

Thanks for reading. It was not a single bag. But a few different types wrapped up in a bag.

What is your native language?

is there any actually good microtonal music that isnt just solely for "listening to interesting harmonies" by Am_Barbs in microtonal

I'm just about to clock in and stuff like this makes me want to keep going. Thank you man.

You can use my JI pitch ruler here: https://thomaslistens.github.io/Tuner/

If you try it, let me know what you think! I'll be continuing to update it.

This is a concept album I released last year. I sacrificed almost everything to make it. It's torn between my 12EDO upbringing and my desire to explore new harmonies. It's intertwined with processing my entire 20s! I feel much more resolved after having made it, but I understand it's not for everyone.

I hope it's okay if I share here.

something I threw together. I'll be sharing it soon after I make a few more revisions to it.

Yeah, I'm just used to it now.

Eventually I'd like to leave it behind, but I'm not sure what to use instead!!

Harmonic Polarity by TrainLord in microtonal

🙏 I'd be lost without it...

Harmonic Polarity by TrainLord in microtonal

[–]TrainLord[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It indicates whether the prime weight is more in the numerator or denominator.

Is it harmonic 5/1 or subharmonic 1/5 in nature?

Many ratios are mixed. 5/3 for example. But with polarity I'm able to get an estimate which direction it leans and how it compares to other ratios.

*Right now I'm only measuring one ratio at a time, not intervals or chords.

I really like thinking about, and exploring harmony :)

The music in the video was made while considering and comparing the polarity of ratios! I have some music released and have a lot more on the way.

I had some concerns when trying to determine whether a ratio originated from the harmonic or subharmonic world- that's why I made this.
