A piece composed using a dodecatonic mode of 53 EDO based on the traditional Arabic mode
called Maqam Hijaz.
The only sound source is Reason 4 slaved to Logic Pro 8 thru ReWire.

Great sounds and video! The tabla part was a tad monotonous,
perhaps, would be my only criticism.

Very nice.

I think it is a little too heavily compressed/limited.

thanks Carl
you are right, I did not pay too much attention to the percussion track.

I guess you are right too (like Carl). maybe it is too much "radio ready"
I'll see what I can do to fix it.
Thanks

thanks Kraig
yes, fun is good and I think a video explains more things than lots of words (or numbers)
