Corrected audio progression uploaded

Well, last time I posted a progression to the files area, some people
apparently missed it, since I included no commentary. That was just
as well, since the progression was wrong anyway.

However, *now* it's been corrected and is in the files area under my
Pehrson directory. (Blackjack progression1.mp3)

Again it is the following (it *really* is this time, I promise):

The "magic" chord G:Bv:F:Db^ in a "tilted square" shape (what is that
called?)

Followed, and connected to the parallelogram by two common tones:

F:Db^:C:Ab^

Which shares, then, three pitches with the utonal tetrad:

F:C:Ab^:D>

And finally resolves and shares two common tones with the "real" (I
shouldda heard that) otonal tetrad:

C:D>:Gb^:A>

This is really a great progression. In fact, it's the first one I'm
*really* excited about. (It's even *more* exciting without
the "errors..." :) )

Could it be, possibly, because I'm varying the *shapes* on the
lattice, and not just connecting utonal and otonal tetrads like I was
before? Possibly. Maybe there's more variety in the connections
that way... ??

In any case, I was trying to even extend this one further to a 8-note
progression using similar procedures... and possibly if I'm still
excited about it, I will post that one tomorrow...

Thanks to everybody for the very distinguished hearing!
