I like the music. First quarter-tone piece that wasn't of indian heritage that I didn't think sounded too dissonant. Most of all though, I really liked the groove, which the other commenters seem to just not notice. Cool song and good performance :)
That's awesome... I was watching this and it reminded me of some Eyvind Kang/SC3 kinda stuff and then I saw that comment. And you guys are right, it has very little "microtonal" quality to it, but it's there a bit.
haha... elitist crap to justify your innane musical "sense".
Just because it sounds different doesn't mean it's good... once you realize that you'll get the picture. You pretend that you have some gift to make sense of this music and all the reset of the mortals are not refined enough. This is why this music is accepted because of moronic people like yourself.
This music is about 95% tonal and is very few quartertones used(relatively).
The guitar player is simply trying to cover up her lack of ability through. The others have decent ability.
I'm not trying to say what they are playing is bad. To my ears it is ok but sounds a bit amateurish because of the lack of sophistication. Sophistication through "difference" is not sophistication. Anyone can play "out of tune" but very few can make it work. (of course I am biased because of my western ears)
This song would sound so much better if it were in tune.
@AbstractDissonance Taking it way to far there haha. You need to calm down with all of that. All I said was that it's quarter tonal, and that you can hear it more distinctly by developing your aural skills....Which you can. Common sense stuff right? Right. So stop trying to prove everyone else wrong.
@AbstractDissonance What does the prescence of quarter tones have to do with tonality? Unless we have differing deffinitions of tonality... (which is often the case, stupid semantics...)
Tonality - posessing a tonal center.
Nobody can say that something sounds better than something else, only that something sounds better "'to them" than something else.
Also, quarter tones are used in musical cultures around the world.
Don't forget that lots of horror films use quarter tones.
very sick drum fills here...the drummer is a God

This is very nice but is modal and not really quartertonal. I don't mean to put it down. It's very very nicely done. I love it.

It seems like the guitar is set up on the bottom neck as microtonal, if you listen to the solo about 2/3 of the way through.

is quartertonal. develop your ear to hear the in between notes

Which of course your response is just going to be my ears are barbaric and uneducated which is precisely why you think this music is amazing.

It sounded out of tune to me for about twenty seconds, until my ear eventually adapted and my brain "switched modes".
Then I rewound it and listened to the same bit which had previously felt "out of tune" and, no, it wasn't at all.
It was my brain that was out of tune, not the music. :D
There's so much more music out there - hiding "between the notes", so to say - and it's all going mostly undiscovered.
Which is a shame.

Actually, the "in between" notes have been discovered long time ago, and it has always been used in the music of the Middle East.
blindfollower 4 years ago 2
Ah, yes. Perfectly right.
There are also Indian and Javanese musical scales with what would be considered "extra in-between notes" by Western standards too.
Mind you, there are "in-between notes" in-between those notes too. Frequency is analogue and continuous.
But I take your point humbly, and duly slap myself on the wrist for any unintentional "Western bias" that might have creeped into my comments there.
