Dance track where I sing about how much I love microtones. This was performed at my senior composition recital, too. I also played some fake instruments for comic effect during the little interludes of the song.

The lyrics:

(Intro)

I dance and sing to the beat of a drum
Ignoring its sum
With the throng

No time to find the deeper meaning
I’m busy feeling
Hyped for each song

Nothing’s new, tonality’s dead,
Or is it alive? I haven’t checked, for
I don’t hum any serial tunes, 
And theory class abandons its roots.

Only one sound provides that rush
Tuning! Gives me tools, too much 
Resurrecting the new in music here!
Tradition broken, true final frontier!

Its spectrum causes the ear to flinch!
It actually emancipates dissonance and pitch!
Nothing else does that quite like this!

(Interlude in 11-EDO)

Xenharmonics are aplenty
Tuning! Gives me tools many  
Finding the keys to music theory’s youth!
Eclectic, yet it holds to the crucial…
Tonic.

Its beauty causes the ear to stand!
Starving on this dissonance now seems bold and grand!
Nothing else does this throughout the land!

I dance and sing to the beat of a drum
Ignoring its sum
With the throng

No time to find the deeper meaning
I’m busy feeling
Hyped for each song

(Interlude in porcupine scale)

(Spoken)
Chords speak
The ear is piqued.
The voyage into new tunings has begun!
Unlimited sounds, and compositional fun!
And the best part is, it only strengthens the familiar knowledge!

Thank you, thank you!
