== Pseudo-diatonic theory ==

Oneirotonic is often used as distorted diatonic. Because distorted diatonic modal harmony and functional harmony both benefit from a recognizable major third, the following theory essentially assumes an [[A-Team]] tuning, i.e. an oneirotonic tuning with generator between 5\13 and 7\18 (or possibly an approximation of such a tuning, such as a [[neji]]). ~~One~~ should experiment and see how well these ideas work in other oneirotonic tunings.

=== Ana modes ===

We call modes with a major mos5th ''ana modes'' (from Greek for 'up'), because the sharper 5th degree functions as a flattened melodic fifth when moving from the tonic up. The ana modes of the MOS are the 4 brightest modes, namely Dylathian, Ilarnekian, Celephaïsian and Ultharian.
