: '''Deja Igliashon:''' it is an absolute crime that Western academic composers got into 24edo during the period when atonality was in vogue, and approached it with no care or consideration for the wealth of concordant harmonic possibilities it presents. It is really just awesome at no-7s 19-limit JI, like just try 0-200-400-550-700-850-1100-1300-1500¢, and tell me it's not doing just as good at approximating 8:9:10:11:12:13:15:17:19, as any other EDOs of similar size or smaller are doing at whatever harmonic series approximations they're known for. 24edo just gives you all kinds of fun ways to tack the 11th and 13th harmonics onto boring ol' 12edo 12-tone harmonies, and it really deserves to be recognized for that, not for its tradition of dreadful atonal discordance.

: '''Fumica:''' This is kind of a normie's edo, but also the most accessible. Quartertones in my otherwise 12edo works often go unnoticed by the audience. A natural next step of 12edo with a structurally beautiful 2.3.5.11.17.19 subgroup interpretation. A-tier.

: '''Budjarn Lambeth:''' Along with 36edo, it is one of the two possible ways to extend 12edo while preserving equal spacing, and keeping the number of notes somewhat manageable. 36edo is ideal if you want to add intervals involving the 7th harmonic into 12edo, while 24edo is ideal if you want to add intervals involving the 11th harmonic. Comparing and contrasting 24edo and 36edo can help you get a feel for the difference between the "vibe" of the 11th harmonic, and the "vibe" of the 7th harmonic. I recommend dipping your toes into each of the two. — Try using familar 12edo intervals in lower registers of your instrument(s)/mix, while mixing in some of the strange new ~~36edo~~ intervals in the higher registers. Thus will mimic the shape of the [[harmonic series]] and sound nice and glittery.
