==Oneirotonic MOS (5L 3s)==
==Oneirotonic MOS (5L 3s)==
The term '''oneirotonic''' is used for the 8-note MOS [[5L 3s]], whose brightest mode is LLsLLsLs. The name "oneirotonic" was coined by [[Cryptic Ruse]] after the Dreamlands in H.P. Lovecraft's Dream Cycle mythos. Oneirotonic modes are named after cities in the Dreamlands. It can be viewed as the analogue of diatonic in A-Team; oneirotonic is a distorted diatonic, because it has one extra small step compared to diatonic ([[5L 2s]]).
