Atmospheric drum and bass -
Atmospheric drum and bass - 'Mashroon' uses the Bohlen-Pierce scale, which contains no octaves at all. It repeats at the perfect twelfth instead (aka the tritave), and divides it into 13 notes. Here I've used the equal tempered version of Bohlen-Pierce which divides the twelfth into 13 equal notes. This tuning approximates many odd-numbered harmonics very well, while missing most of the even-numbered harmonics completely.
For me, Bohlen-Pierce music sounds like restful tension. Or to put it another way, it is consonant but not resolved. It's great for atmospheric sounds or eerie Halloween music. But it can also excel at "normal" or even cheerful music, which I will demonstrate with a track on an upcoming album next year. Anyway for now I hope you'll enjoy the dark atmospheres in this drum and bass choon, 'Mashroon'.
To really get your head around the Bohlen-Pierce scale, I recommend that you download a tonne of Bohlen-Pierce music and listen to it on repeat for at least a few days. You'll need lots of time to adjust because it's a totally different tonal framework to any of the world's traditional musics. I promise that the weirdness will eventually go away and the microtonal airy sheen will come to the foreground.
Subversio is an album of microtonal bass music by Jacky Ligon, Tony Dubshot and Sevish. It was released on the Dubbhism Deluxe label in 2011.
