= Music =

Here's a selection of music I've written, mostly in the past year. Though I have written many works over my life, I haven't kept track of many. Even collecting these pieces from the last 6 months required some sleuthing (lol).

== Harmonic Series ==

My most commonly used system is [https://en.xen.wiki/w/Overtone_scale#Introduction_-_Modes_of_the_Harmonic_Series Mode 32 of the Harmonic Series], as it provides a good approximation of 12-EDO as well as being a conceptually simple and powerful overtone scale. As such it has been the most common tuning of my keyboard for many years.

==== Mavila EDM Experiments ====

I'm not really into EDM or dubstep, but one time I was doing regular long drives with someone who listened to dubstep and it rubbed off on me leading to these 4 tracks being made. I never really did any mixing or mastering before this, and it's something I still need to work on if I ever pursue this type of music again.

I'm not really into EDM or dubstep, but one time I was doing regular long drives with someone who listened to dubstep and it rubbed off on me leading to these 4 tracks being made. I never really did any mixing or mastering before this, and it's something I still need to work on if I ever pursue this type of music again. (It's worth noting that these pieces have been retuned to a 16neji /128, which is practically the same as 16edo but is emotionally appealing to the JI purist deep inside me.)
