Great way of presenting this. I picked up my guitar and started listening to each interval separately. I already understood but this video made me pick up my guitar and purposefully listen. It's the whole point of an instructional video and it worked. Well done.
This is THE highest quality production I’ve ever seen put into a video about actual microtonal theory, and perhaps even harmonic theory in general. THIS CHANNEL NEEDS A MILLION MORE SUBSCRIBERS
Does anyone else hear that the piano music in the background slowly grow more and more microtonal/alternate-tuning as the “party” continues? (ie: from traditional 12-tone to equal temperament, etc)
You have exceptionally great ears, my friend! That's exactly the reason we chose the track! Check out @MikeBattagliaMusic 's Channel, he is a xenharmonic mastermind!
This is probably the most creative video you've made so far. It was a great analogy, and you really got 31 different people to act all of this out. Plus hearing Mike Battaglia's Sweet Lorraine as the background music was a nice surprise, given that it's one of my favorite 31-EDO covers out there. I'm looking forward to what you have in the future!
Thanks so much! Yeah, we were amazed by how our friends just trusted us with all of this haha, it was so much fun to record :D And yeah, @MikeBattagliaMusic is the real thing! Love his music so much!
I love thinking about the planning and the spreadsheets you guys must have had to make sure to film every combination of people and to make sure they act in the correct mood lmao
Glad you like it!! Yeah... 2 days of work right there, I'm NOT a motion graphic designer/animator hahaha You quickly realise how much work goes into stuff like that when you have to do it yourself... I love it, because you appreciate the works of others so much more
I have to agree. You guys are genuinely multitalented, not only having mastered microtonal music, but also possessing the ability to create one hell of a spectacular audiovisual production.
This touches multiple things at once, a video called “Chords as Emojis”, my overall OBSESSION of microtonal music that you have helped me build, and just the very creativeness you have made. You deserve every bit of my pleasure in watching this video.
This is insane! I absolutely love how each person is their own note and has their own unique “personality”. It’s incredible how much effort went into this. You guys deserve way more subs! :)
This is AMAZING. I have no words, this is a content about microtonality that manages to be fun, brilliant and instructive. I can barely imagine how much effort you put into this. Also, mike battaglia's sweet lorraine in the background fits perfectly, bringing more and more xenharmonic elements as the video goes on. Proud to be like n° 1000!
Wow, thank you! I'm flustered by the response to be honest, it's beautiful to see the work pay off and, even more so, making all these people happy with the content db
Wow, this is amazing! Blows my mind where you went with this one in terms of production value, attention to detail, educational inventiveness…. Hats off, coming from a musical philistine who enjoyed every minute of it 😉👏🏽
Great that you watched it regardless*! I feel like this osmotic/immersive way of learning is the best, especially if the thing you immerse yourself in is fun to be around :) Anyway, thanks for your comment!
That's a really good one. Top two diesis moments of mine are when Lumatone anticipates A shat major over B flarp, and Clara's penultimate high note being a B flarp over a B otonal chord
holy moly, this was so cool and such a fun representation. And not to mention the quality made me think this channel had 50x the amount of subscribers it does. Great work
Wow, so much effort!! You deserve WAYYYY more views on your videos, simply amazing. The editing, the writing and of course the music material. One of the greatest music videos I've seen
Incredible. Amazing. Every music student needs to see this. This was a visual, creative and story telling masterpiece. Im also jealous to see so many musically minded and intelligent individuals in one room together. This is the party i want to be at and have missed. There is harmony in absolutely anything . As white noise is the full spectrum, we pick a few notes to harmonise inside it, but truly there are infinite possible combinations and sequences and resonances to find
Good catch! Hahaha, yeah, that made me so happy when I realised that it ligned up almost perfectly, just had to cut a few frames here and there to make it work :D
Wow! This must have taken you a thousand hours to make! Great ideas about how to build chord voicings in 31-EDO. The idea about how certain intervals only sound good with various "stabilizers" added is great stuff. I think everyone should study this video pretty intently - looking forward to the next one!!
I mean, we do have similar in 12TET, at least until you've emancipated all your dissonances :P. A minor second (or major 7th), for example, is much nicer as part of a major 7th chord (i.e. with the 3rd and 5th in there as "stabilisers"). 31TET just has a lot more of it, I guess.
I'm so happy you used Mike Battaglias cover of Sweet Lorrain. I found it during lockdown and it blew me away, and it fits the mood you are going for perfectly!
I'm speechless on the video quality. Congrats on the growth! You guys deserve it. If anyone reading this comment likes cool chords in 31, I recommend checking out my "What a Wonderful World" a cappella cover, entirely within 31-TET. Let's name the d7 chord at 09:01. Since you have a chromatic cluster, you could maybe push the extensions a little farther, like Chris Bandy and Jacob Collier calling things a sharp-15, etc. How about C(db7) +11 d13 d14? That's what I did when labeling this chord in Wonderful World. Maybe some kind of label for "otonal chord" would be helpful for a harmonic series chord up to a certain point (my guess would be d13). So then you could say like "C otonal add d7" lol. It warms my heart that you guys have a chord with a chromatic cluster 🥲
That's a great idea, naming chords with a shorthand for otonal. When we write down ideas manually, we do it with ! for otonal and i for utonal (dot = the note; line = harmonic series above/below) and then add the highest limit we use in it. So C!d13 for a 13-limit otonal chord, but a C!+11 for 11-limit and similarly for utonal chords. Doesn't work in Dorico though... -.-
@@stephenweigel Cause i and ! don't look the same but flipped in chord symbols, or do they? If they do let's entertain the Xenharmonic Alliance with that :D
@@HearBetweenTheLines I don't know of anyone using exclamation points in microtonal chords. The only association that comes to mind is that copied scala files often use them
I know this is really old, but if the font supports it, U+00A1 INVERTED EXCLEMATION MARK (¡) is the glyph you are looking for. The aesthetics of it are somewhat different, resting below the baseline, but it should at least look better than a lowercase ‘i’ in serif fonts,
absolutely obsessed with your work. keep it up. i personally would love to see more behind the scenes and teasers to your upcoming releases. you have found an amazing niche that all music nerds would love to get into and learn about. keep doing high quality productions such as this, and i know you guys will explode in the music community. we want to learn what you have to offer.
I'm so glad you watched and enjoyed it anyway! If you do want to learn more about theory, there are great sources on RUclips, we basically learned most of it that way, too :)
That totally works of course and I really like that sound, too, I was just approaching it more from structural point of view (stabilising note relationships to get the most concordance)
This video is actually insane in how it conveys information about the topic. Not knowing much about music myself, I'm astonished at both the educational and entertainment value that can be found here. At the start I thought you would do a fun little sketch but then the rest of the video just continued on like this, which still blows my mind. Good on ya boys!
Mannnnnnnnnn, I go crazy watching your videos, you are wonderful, all the examples, allegories, comparisons make me much more excited to study more and more the 31 TET. Sharing in 3,2,1... . . . . (Note) How beautiful it would be if the videos were more frequent hahaha, but I understand and respect your time.
This is one of the few times when the “musical ketchup” going throughout the video was actually relevant and meaningful to the final product. Excellent demonstration!
this concept is such new to me, especially the parallelism of chords to actual social dynamics! also this is just me nitpicking in the thumbnail, but Ab appears twice while Bb is missing (the real Bb is between F half-flat and F half-sharp)

This is a fantastic video! Im really impressed you got 31 people together for this (university students?) and almost more impressed by the very idea to represent notes by people. Genius.
such a madness! thank you very much for your video even though i have never experienced other TET systems but yet this was fascinating! you all guys are like a real family not only musicaly :D
Love this video. How much love and effort went into the details! Even all the little side stories are so on point. Can't stop watching it over and over and find more hidden clues hahaha
I've never been a fan of barbershop quartets, but I CAN'T WAIT to hear 31TET barbershop. (I think that the transition from 12TET to 31TET is much harder for vocalists than any other instrument.)
Hmmm, I think it depends on the intervals whether it’s harder to sing. If there’s a lot of microtonal modulation, it definitely is harder, but the intonation itself is easier if you’re staying in diatonic logic. If you like acapella, try our song Time To Call My Friend!
This is definitely one of your best videos! Executed brilliantly and so creatively. I would hate to see what a 24-TET party would look like. Probably a bit more divided.
This is stupidly high quality production for such a small audience. Even amongst musician I know most don't really enjoy exploring microtonality - so I must commend you for this exceptional video.... And I'll be sure to spread the word ;) Cheers!
Amazing video... I watched all the relationship scenes twice to fully appreciate how the emotion qualities of the sound was acted out by all the friends. Brilliant stuff!
I love the analogy: sometimes, 2 people just don't go with each other, however, in a friend group, these differences are obscured by the other relationships that do work and even compliment on that dissonance!
Exactly! Interdisciplinary analogies are so awesome, it would be so great if we could connect the societal dots more, I feel like we would understand and then be able to overcome a lot of problems that way... Anyway, I digress... Thanks for your lovely comment!
Ого, какой классный ролик. Мало того, что так хорошо снято, так ещё и о 31-TET. Причём мысленно всегда так и хотелось увидеть, как одни ноты дружат с другими. Эмоции прям переданы так как надо. Очень классно!
Glad you like it! Yeah, we tried our best Wes Anderson approximation. Would love to experiment further with colour palletes and such, fascinating stuff!
I cannot put into words how mutch I love this, I already love the concept of personification but with microtonal music theory is just beyond amaizing ! ❤❤❤
Another one of these videos that help me seeing clearer about 31-TET theory. Thank you people! And, great vidder! (12-TET musical noobie here hehe) Also, 3:16 is a certified musical yuri moment X)
Glad you enjoyed it! For more clarity of vision you could check out my 31-TET rendition of "I can see clearly now" haha By the way: What's a musical yuri moment? :D
@@HearBetweenTheLines Nah, that's just a random joke I completely made... ...I basically thought of this moment as like a musical version of a yuri (lesbian) relationship. Thought that was funny ...somewhat...
When I clicked on this video I thought Battaglia's Sweet Lorraine had somehow started playing in another tab lmao, since I listen to it a lot. Anyways, this is something I've wondered about for a while. I suspected the answer was yes, but I lacked the chord vocabulary to know what chords would go with what notes. Awesome as always!

It’s true, dudes! Keep it up!

I love the metaphor of harmonies in-between bottom notes and top notes being like people that cause the personalities to mesh in an overall setting.
Does anyone else hear that the piano music in the background slowly grow more and more microtonal/alternate-tuning as the “party” continues? (ie: from traditional 12-tone to equal temperament, etc)

Wonderful. Great performance by all of the notes, especially Root. I appreciated their high fives with the folks they didn't get along with alone.
4:07 - the octave being the root looking at itself in the mirror is simply genius.
This is insane, did not expect to EVER see a speakeasy art deco microtonal theory demonstration???

I love the analogy: sometimes, 2 people just don't go with each other, however, in a friend group, these differences are obscured by the other relationships that do work and even compliment on that dissonance!
Exactly! Interdisciplinary analogies are so awesome, it would be so great if we could connect the societal dots more, I feel like we would understand and then be able to overcome a lot of problems that way...
Anyway, I digress... Thanks for your lovely comment!
@@HearBetweenTheLines I agree! Gotta love sociology! Keep the awesome work!
Ого, какой классный ролик. Мало того, что так хорошо снято, так ещё и о 31-TET. Причём мысленно всегда так и хотелось увидеть, как одни ноты дружат с другими. Эмоции прям переданы так как надо. Очень классно!
This is such a creative way of showing these ideas! I also love the aesthetic
Glad you like it! Yeah, we tried our best Wes Anderson approximation. Would love to experiment further with colour palletes and such, fascinating stuff!
the algorithm did me right with this one
Glad you joined the party ;)
I cannot put into words how mutch I love this, I already love the concept of personification but with microtonal music theory is just beyond amaizing ! ❤❤❤
Wow, thank you! So glad you like it so much! db!

Xentabulous!!! Plssss make a 53 tone version of the exact same video!!!!
Y
Xentabulous!!! Why don’t u make a 53-guest version of the party (53tone) in the next video!!
I’ll have to put another story on my flat to make that happen hahaha
Another one of these videos that help me seeing clearer about 31-TET theory. Thank you people! And, great vidder! (12-TET musical noobie here hehe)
Also, 3:16 is a certified musical yuri moment X)
Glad you enjoyed it! For more clarity of vision you could check out my 31-TET rendition of "I can see clearly now" haha
By the way: What's a musical yuri moment? :D
@@HearBetweenTheLines Nah, that's just a random joke I completely made...
...I basically thought of this moment as like a musical version of a yuri (lesbian) relationship. Thought that was funny ...somewhat...
folks, they just wanted to flex how many friends they have 😛
Bahahaha, yeah, really nailed the cost - benefit for that one ;)
When I clicked on this video I thought Battaglia's Sweet Lorraine had somehow started playing in another tab lmao, since I listen to it a lot.
Anyways, this is something I've wondered about for a while. I suspected the answer was yes, but I lacked the chord vocabulary to know what chords would go with what notes. Awesome as always!
Yeah, I can't count the times I've listened to that song, still love it!
whoa. the production value really went up on this one like holy shit
You have no idea how much time I've spent colorgrading this mf... Hahaha
@@HearBetweenTheLines Excellent reciprocation of colloquial vernacular bro!
Holy shat, man, what the actual flarp...
