Moonglade scale

In a public post on the Xenharmonic Alliance Discord server, in September 2025, Gutierrez described the scale she used in her piece 'Moonglade'. This was the post:

hiii im new to discord& pretty new to making music & microtonality but i would like to share a custom scale i made (& used in my song "moonglade" which is on all distrokid-supported streaming platforms, in the ep "luna" by maeve gutierrez (me)).i focused mainly on shimmery intervals/textures like wolf tones and commas, but also included some pure/JI consonances & there is also plenty of dissonance/tension available:3

obviously if anyone wants 2 use it u can!! i dont own the intervals!!! its a fun scale to play with for harmony/thick chords

(moonglade is a very old word that means the moonlight shining on oceans, lakes etc)
 +0 (unison)
+14 (comma)
+88 (flat minor second)
+187 (flat whole tone)
+201 (whole tone)
+289 (neogothic minor 3rd)
+311 (minor 3rd)                        +386 (major 3rd)
+498 (perfect 4th)
+520 (wolf 4th)                         +583 (narrow tritone)
+680 (wolf 5th)
+702 (perfect 5th)
+716 (comma-sharp 5th)
+787 (narrow minor 6th)
+867 (submajor 6th)
+884 (major 6th)
+969 (harmonic 7th)
+991 (minor 7th)
+1013 (comma-sharp minor 7th)           +1066 (grave major 7th)
+1076 (submajor 7th)                    +1102 (major 7th)
+1178 (suboctave)
+1200 (octave)

alot of these intervals also exist between intervals: flat whole tone is a -14 comma lower than the whole tone, the harmonic major chord triad (+0,+386,+969) has a natural +583 tritone between the 3rd and 7th, etc!
