This piece uses the concept of individually tuning each chord to Just Intonation, but relative to a note from the last chord, creating a fluid Just Intonation that is free from the base of Equal Temperament. This idea is similar to the way that professional choirs intonate with each other and the resulting pitch drifts, but instead in the context of electronic music.
Acknowledgements:
• Adam Neely for his explanation of “Xenharmony” and concept of tuning an accompaniment to Just Intonation around an equally tempered melody. This is the concept I wanted to take further and break free from Equal Temperament entirely.
- “The 7 Levels of Jazz Harmony” -
• Jacob Collier for his use of subtle microtonality in his music, notably his modulation to G half sharp major in “In the Bleak Midwinter” using Just Intonation to pivot to the new tuning centre, and David Bruce for his deconstruction of this.
