31EDO
- Program Notes
- Shimmer is a microtonal piece utilizing electronics tuned in 31 equal divisions of the octave (EDO) and accompanied with a drum set playing break beats. It uses a specific application of 31 EDO called double mode theory, in which the pitch content is derived from a prime mode, and a secondary mode, which is offset by 1/31 step. This produces a selection of 14 notes with which to choose from. Shimmer aims to contradict the notion that microtonal music is inherently dissonant or elitist, instead, this EDM track should be enjoyed equally by anyone, regardless of their knowledge in microtonality
