And very trance like - I even had to shut it
off to chill out, I did listen to it twice.
I was worried that my heart might stop!

Since it's in JI and everything's so smooth,
it doesn't even sound like modulation!

In my work "Sonic Bloom" (CD's ready soon!),
I play chords that use 13 - 11 - 9 without a 1/1,
I feel that this is a sort of vertical modulation
that doesn't sound as abrupt as 12tet modulation.

Maybe there's a JI theorist who as a term for
this type of modulation - as if there's none on this
list?
