==Neely-intonalism==

In 2020 music educator [[Adam Neely]] picked up the term and used it in his [[7th Level of Jazz Harmony|Seven Levels of Jazz Harmony]], with a somewhat different and rather ambiguous intent, where he seemed to describe the use of a tempered scale (often [[12edo]]) for the lead melody of a piece. The current melody note at any given point in time is then treated as a reference pitch, and the current backing chord uses pure just intonation, tuned relative to the current reference pitch. In a sense this is an inverse form of [[adaptive just intonation]] where the bass line adjusts to a tempered scale and the melody and harmony notes tune to it.

To distinguish this form of intonalism from the other, you could call it '''Neely-intonalism'''.{{idiosyncratic}}

===Fluid just intonation===

In 2021, composer and music theorist Rosie Sheldon modified Neely-intonalism to create [[fluid just intonation]], which replaces the 12edo skeleton with a pure [[JI]] skeleton.
