- Exploring the depth of the tonal cosmos in a literally inter-stellar collaboration with harmonic supernova @JakeShermanWooo, performing his post-mondial anthem Can't Say We Didn't Try !
Buckle up, let's take off together in T minus 10… 9… 8…… ;)
Honestly, this was incredibly fun to film and put together, thanks for being goofy with us, Jake!
And the happiest of birthdays, man! We cherish you and your music so, so much! db db db
By the way, you rock on that @lumatone , you should really consider getting one ;)
We have to thank the INCREDIBLE Rafa Müller and Peter Scharonow for being our favourite co-smonauts, super duper killer musicians and, amazingly, game for anything we ask them to, really! Thanks for your astronomical contribution to our music!

This music is amazing as doesn't sound microtonal for the sake of microtonality, but instead bakes it in to existing genres and prioritizes enjoyability... Keep up the good work!
Our motto in a nutshell! :)
Thanks
That's exactly what I realised about their music too, and why it stands out from other microtonal music - doesn't feel like the focus is "making microtonal music", but making _fantastic_ music... that happens to be microtonal
its absurd how underrated this song is
Yeah, I also really love it, Jake is such an amazing songwriter...
I’ve replayed this everyday since it came out! Indie funk may be my favorite subgenre, a style I’ve never heard captured microtonally. The intonations from that 1st minute should be plundered by indie artists everywhere - they’ve yet to realize what notes they leave on the table!!
What struck me most (that nobody has mentioned) is how the imagery of the lyrics deftly blend with the score on every note. There’s agony, fear, hopefulness, wonder, determination, willful sacrifice, and the icy chill of space. This opus left me yearning for a spacefaring Exodus from a wartorn Earth, replete with Biblically themed imagery seeking "deliverance", and a Star Wars-like ruggedness befitting their perilous trek. You’ve masterfully encapsulated their despairing yet unrelenting hope, striving for the betterment of the humans to come after them, whether they live to see the "promised land" or die as martyrs along the way. The stakes are only heightened by the stark reminder that not all ships make it, some (if not most) meeting their end "frozen in space".
Your innovative undertakings cannot be overstated. YOU lot are the vanguards of microtonality. Right now, there’s a dearth of artists experimenting with microtones (or even know what they are!), yet an undercurrent of demand is brewing-boded by the popularity of lofi (where dissonance is a virtue) and the various subgenres it spawned. I’ve searched high and low for microtonalists, and you are among a handful globally. Those who DO dabble publish a motley mix of microtonal covers of 12TET songs, dissonant alien radio-static, or musical theory. They each have their place, but you’re the only ones filling the void-you continually produce high-quality earworms that make 12TET sound uncreative. They push the envelope and are unreliant on 12TET chord progressions. They’re catchy, soothing, and sensationally transcendent beyond any music I know. Don’t stop. Don’t EVER stop. Inspire other artists-thinkers and dreamers like yourselves. If I had it my way, your influence would blossom a thousandfold.
Peace ✌️
That last harmonization of the main theme was totally crazy, absolutely loved it!
Glad you liked it! Thanks!

The chords in the closer are absolutely bonkers and it makes me feel like I'm disappearing up my own harmonic cloaca. Bravo!
That was amazing listening too. What a beautiful composition with exotic harmonies and melodic lines. This is the future of music
Thanks so much! db db
(Glad to see you've decided against acting on your username - at least in this case ;) )
Wowzers! I thnnk this is my favourite video, and it might be my favourite performance on your channel. Some very very cool voiceleading down to the depths. Love the octave vocals and hyped visuals
Glad you enjoyed it, Cam, that means a lot coming from a master of microtonal voice-leading such as yourself!
nobody makes them like you guys...catchy microtonal magic in a bottle rocket. need more ASAP
I'm so glad i came upon this channel. There's such a huge depth of the information that you guys convey in thr theory oriented videos and yet they're still easy to digest and understand. And now we get to see the talk in practice with this and other bangers! Keep up the outstanding work guys!
Thanks so much, Aidan! db
this is blowing my mind the stuff thats going on is crazy and the bands mix is really good too, its almost like a style thats more suited to microtones, you could even call it resonant
Wow, thanks so much! Yeah, I really tried to make everything transparent in the mix, even though there’s so much going on haha
Glad you like it!
That's so otherworldly... Insane what you guys can do! Love it!
Such a fantastic and catchy song! Thank you for this great and sparkling rendition and for helping me discover Mr. Sherman and many other great musicians. Subbing you talent monsters has really paid off!
What a heartwarming comment!
Very cool! You're doing great. Also, I love your recent creations, very fresh. Thanks
Thank you very much! Cheers :)
I have perfect pitch and at first, when I first started listening to microtonal music, I had dissonance in my head. But now I get a kick out of it!
I probably just killed the perfect pitch in me. However, I really enjoy your music.
Microtonal jazz with some other genres mixed in -- it's *something out of the realm of reality!*
WHOA this came from nowhere. THIS SLAPS SO HARD. its so funking groovy. that bassss. i havent listened to microtonal songs in a bit so this is doing fun things to my brain
PS: whoa the lyrics. not only is this a nice song, but this is also a cool story. ALSO wAS THAT MICROTONAL VOCODERING ?? !! i havent seen anyone doing that before ! thats crazy !!
Yeah, we love that song, Jake is a master songwriter for sure!
And yes, we showed him how to use the Lumatone and we hooked up the vocoder to it and it worked! It’s so much fun, definitely gonna use that more in the future!
Really cool! Jake Sherman was a great choice for a collab
You never disappoint, right?
Why is it that I always find a channel I want to binge on the last day of my holiday? Subbed. Patreon pending.
Wohooooo! Thanks so much for your lovely comment and pending Patronage! Happy you wanna be part of the gang! db
So damn groovy. And what a whopper of a production…!!!! Long live the long beards, reverse engineered 😉♥️ 1:25
the melodies at 2:50 are just amazing, one of your best songs to me so far
It‘s Jake‘s song! But yeah, it’s amazing songwriting, for sure ;)
@@HearBetweenTheLines oh didnt know, still great tho, my favorite song of yours is Frippe's Nocturne, the chord resolution in the chorus is incredible, never heard something like that, a really touching song.
first
AMAZING WORK GUYS
How tf?
@@lucamcardle729secret Patreon where they show vids early :)
@@lucamcardle729He’s a Patron of ours, so he can watch the videos earlier 😊
This is like an alien parasite that slowly hijacked my brain
Breathtaking!!!
For the dance version, increase the playback speed to 1.25 and turn up the volume 25%
Does this song use any particular tuning, or is it fluid? Either way, it’s the best I’ve heard from you guys so far! Keep up the good work ^^
It's 31-TET :)
Awww, I'm glad, thanks a lot! db
Microtonal tame impala is my favorite genre
Hahaha totally!
Amazing, as always. Is this in 31edo or are you using other tuning system?
Thanks so much! Yup, we’re in 31 :)
Wowowowow!
Wonderful 🤩
Thanks 🤗
Nice sonic experience :) ...but when Jacob collab? :P
Haha, good question ;)
@@HearBetweenTheLines I just saw him last night in Washington D.C. at the Kennedy Center with the National Symphony Orchestra. It's amazing what type of sounds he can make even with 12TET, but it would definitely be nice to see/hear some 31edo Jacobian action!
@@Thomas-yl8lb I'm seeing him in June :)
@@stephenweigel Nice! I just saw him again on May 1st. He got the audience choir to try their hand at pitch subdivisions. I'm still begging to see him experiment with different tunings in the music he releases though (more than simply using microtonal modulations or JI chords).
Great work, thanks for sharing it! In fact mictrotonal songs are hundreds of thousands but they are almost monotonal due to the harmonizing issues.
That's why I am asking, have you ever took a concrete real existing song from the microtonal east world and tried really to harmonize it? The arab songs for exemple (24-TET)? below are 4 songs:
1- In the mode (Maqam) Rast: th-cam.com/video/PE1GNl0GCzw/w-d-xo.html
2- In the mode Bayati Shuri: th-cam.com/video/cqRgQ9pmBcQ/w-d-xo.html
3- In the mode Bayati: th-cam.com/video/bSkonjQKWpI/w-d-xo.html
4- In the mode Sikah: th-cam.com/video/v-0Lx3yyEO4/w-d-xo.html
Are you able to harmonize kind of this?
