******Cyrus the great******

Against portrayal of Persians <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persian_people > in 300 (film) <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/300_(film) > , I composed a Music in a mode of baran scale <http://240edo.googlepages.com/arithmeticirrationaldivisions(aid) > (Bold degrees : 0 80 166.7 260 360 466.7 580 700 780 870 970 1080 1200 ) and in honour of Cyrus the great <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyrus_the_Great > , the greatest and famous Persian Emperor of the Achamenid Dynasty (580-529BC) and a righteous human being.He was extraordinarily peerless in all over the world. Comparing Cyrus' manner with Semi's rulers, one feels great pleasure for the Persian liberality and generosity and truly regards the Persians as one of the instructors of human rights.

******Jupiterians******

Music of jupiterians , the beings that inhabit the planet <http://supermanica.info/wiki/index.php/Jupiterians > Jupiter and are humanoid in shape but with eight arms. This music is composed in <http://supermanica.info/wiki/index.php?title=Jupiter&action=edit > Reverse baran scale. <http://240edo.googlepages.com/arithmeticirrationaldivisions(aid)

I think the bad guy in the film is actually Xerxes. I haven't seen it,
but I understand the Xerxes in the film ("a giant, megalomaniacal bald
man with multiple piercings and makeup" accoding to the Wikipedia
article on Xerxes) has no basis in what we know about the historical
Xerxes.

Hi Shaahin,
I can not download it with my Free Download Manager but the mp3 widget works.
I'm glad to hear it. Inharmonic percussive timbres work well as usually, live voices in Jupiterian would be better.

Your music just keeps getting richer! The transition at
0:40 is really cool, and it's followed by more interesting
transitions thereafter. This is showing a very high level
of fit and finish in all stages of the musical process.

To be honest, this retuning was not entirely successful to
my ears.

Hi all,
you can find my old piece Dvandva from 1987, remastered and remixed in 2007, at: http://www.uvnitr.cz/flao/dvandva.html. It is not too much microtonal (6edo) but I hope it can be posted here.
It is an algorithmic duet (or duel) for sitar and Sinclair ZX Spectrum computer.
Enjoy!
Milan

I must confess that when I read this I was like "6edo, wtf, who would
use that? This probably sucks." But then I really enjoyed it. Nice
complementary timbres, and the water bubbling sounds give it a cool
atmosphere.

I did keep longing for a 3/2 though...

> Thanks for your comments, I am glad you enjoyed it. Maybe I should give some more information about how the piece was done (for the first M of MMM):
In "verses" the Sinclair ZX Spectrum computer generates stochastic-algorithmic sequences and the sitar plays a free improvisation. In "refrains" both the ZX and the sitar should play one fixed algorithmically pre-generated melody in unison. The melody was too bizarre for the sitar player, so he was unable to play it easily, without mistakes. It made a nice tension. I played the drone/background on synths. The rest of the group was in the kitchen making noises. All in real-time, in one take. Tabla, voice and some more noises were overdubbed.
No score, no music software, only a program for ZX in Basic stored on a cassette - it was in 1987. I agree with Steven Yi's remarks on software long-term concerns, the algorithm is lost forever, ZX Spectrum is gone as well as the cassette... > I did keep longing for a 3/2 though...
> I will use it somewhere, sometime... As pure as possible. Promise.
