Imperials - We Build Probing Lights

Realtime improvisation made completely with a Pocket Piano and Soundtoys plugins.
Definitely screwed up in some spots (watch out for that tone change!), but oh well. I could do this for hours ^.^
Also btw I was using arpeggios so no I didn't manually play those really fast runs and trills.

Out Of Touch

a traditional sounding progression in 16 divisions of an octave

"iv - II7 - V7 - I"-like Progression in 16edo

5-lim JI version of the Bolero of Fire frmo the video game Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

Mavila[7] in 16edo is represented by the mode 2 2 3 2 2 2 3.
Mavila has the interesting characterstic that its structure is an inversion of the meantone diatonic (major) scale. Notated in step sizes s = small and L = Large, the scale structures are:
Meantone Diatonic: L L s L L L s (2 2 1 2 2 2 1 in 12edo)
Mavila Anti-Diatonic: s s L s s s L (2 2 3 2 2 2 3 in 16edo)
This creates an inversion of harmony relative to meantone. Major becomes minor, minor becomes major, and diminished is augmented.

A little ditty in the Triple Bohlen-Pierce (39 divisions of 3/1) tuning. The scale used is a 12-note MOS using 16\39, or about 780.289 cents.
The interval steps are: 2 2 5 2 5 2 2 5 2 5 2 5

Air on the Fresh Side

This tune is played in four different equal temperaments - Bohlen-Pierce, 19EDO, 22EDO, and 27EDO respectively. Then they're all played at the same time, just for fun.

The tune is in the Lambda temperament. This actually has a period around 3/1 or 1902.955 cents, which Bohlen-Pierce supports, but can be supported by some EDOs. They need to contain the 5L4s scale format and have an interval (the generator) between 422.7 - 475.5 cents, and an acceptable approximation to a fifth (3/2 in the EDO, but used as 3/1 as a period).

BP = 13EDT (p=1902.955c , g=438.913c)
19EDO ~~ 30EDT (p=1894.737c, g=442.105c)
22EDO ~~ 35EDT (p=1909.091c, g=436.364c)
27EDO ~~ 43EDT (p=1911.111c, g=444.444c)

I opted out of using 31edo because it actually sounded kinda bad and ruined the ending. That approximation has a generator of ~425 which is quite flatter than the others.
