Modes with a flat 5th degree sound weirder to diatonic ears, but ironically this can sound more stable since the flat 5th degree approximates an 11/8. Mnarian has a 4:9:11 on the tonic, Hlanithian has an 8:11:13:17 on the tonic, and Sarnathian has the Beloved Extra Special Chord 4:5:11:13 on the tonic. Ironically Sarnathian makes the 5/4 in the chord sound very dark.

Ironically Sarnathian makes the 5/4 in the chord sound very dark since it's a diminished fourth, rather than a major third.


Hlanithian also has the tetrad 8:13:17:21 on the tonic (in the 13edo tuning).
