Despite being melodically familiar, Oneirotonic may be the most harmonically complex of the 13edo scales; the most common consonant triad is a fairly complex 4:9:21. The availability of primes also varies greatly by mode: for example, only Dylathian, Ilarnekian and Sarnathian have a 5/4 on the tonic, and only Mnarian, Kadathian, Hlanithian and Sarnathian have an 11/8 on the tonic, | |||
Like in archaeotonic, seconds and thirds are similar in consonance to 12edo seconds and thirds, and similarly sixths and sevenths are similar to diatonic sixths and sevenths. Minor 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 which are common in oneirotonic. | Like in archaeotonic, seconds and thirds are similar in consonance to 12edo seconds and thirds, and similarly sixths and sevenths are similar to diatonic sixths and sevenths.
