Notes

  • delve into musical theory
  • talked a bit about pentatonic scales
  • talked about what I named "erisian modes", 5 pentatonic modes based on the intervals of the black keys
  • Intervals in all 5 of these modes are chock full of perfect 4ths, and perfect 5ths
  • sparked research on intervals.
  • Combine and form "The Greater kallisti mode" … describe at length
  • how many possible pentatonic scales are there in the 12 notes of baby eating western musical theory?
  • 792
  • Intervals for kallisti mode, on website
  • Ambient track (uses mode)
  • came out of an "Epic Ambient Battle", which is totally fun, and was a great way to release a track
  • Go check it out.
