The darker, damper, more "minory" cousin of archaeotonic. Only 2 out of 8 oneirotonic modes (Dylathian and Ilarnekian) are "major" in the sense of having a major third, and both sound pretty bittersweet. | The darker, damper, more "minory" cousin of archaeotonic.

More things from common-practice harmony carry over though. | ||
Like in archaeotonic, seconds and thirds are similar in consonance to 12edo seconds and thirds, and similarly cothirds and coseconds are similar to diatonic sixths and sevenths. Perfect fourths (21/16) are dissonant, but they work a lot like diatonic perfect fourths do e.g. in "sus24" chords that resolve down to thirds, and can also be spread out to make convincing 4:9:21 chords. | Like in archaeotonic, seconds and thirds are similar in consonance to 12edo seconds and thirds, and similarly cothirds and coseconds are similar to diatonic sixths and sevenths.
