This should be the final composition included in "The Equal Tempered Keyboard" project, which has been going on for the past 20 years (gasp). In this book, each equal division of the octave between 5 and 20 tones gets a prelude and fugue or two part invention. For 19ET I had written two pieces, but neither of them was a fugue or invention, rather the set was a "Prelude and Rondo". I decided that didn't fit the project well enough, so I wrote this short fugue yesterday (13. Sept. 2020) to replace the Rondo. Some remarks about each tuning will be included in the book. Those are not quite finished yet, but I plan to publish the book by the end of the year.

Scream

You’re too strait-laced; you’re too straight faced
I didn’t even find you a threat
Two faced doesn’t begin to cover
The ma(s)king of your false engagement

Your horse’s head, your drinks in bed
They won’t convince me into regret  
That projection reveals your cover
Although you are what you hate, don’t fret
Everyone’s like that

There’s no mass worship now without
coordinated calculation
There’s no mass worship now without
algorithmic triangulation

A quick jam using 2 instances of TAL Baseline 101 (a monophonic bass track, and polyphonic pads). The TAL synth is being controlled by a Roland SH-01a, which works really nicely as a controller.

ValhallaSupermassive used for reverb and 1/8. echo. FreqEcho used for phasing. ValhallaDelay used on the mix bus to add some saturation and wobble.
