'''676/675''', otherwise known as the '''island comma''', or the '''parizeksma''', is the difference between two [[15/13]]'s and a [[4/3]] perfect fourth, and also between [[26/25]] and [[27/26]]. Tempering this comma out divides the perfect fourth into two equal halves, making [[island chords]] possible.

== Etymology ==
The name ''island comma'' was given by [[Mike Battaglia]] in 2011<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_95448.html#95608 Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Parizekmic temperament?'']</ref>.
<blockquote>
The 9-note MOS sounds like you're on some kind of tropical island off the coast of Barbados playing jubilant sun-music with the natives or something. More specifically, I feel like it takes the "island" feel of 5-equal and expands it out into diatonic and chromatic versions.
