Hi Mats,

I was able to give this a listen and enjoyed it a lot. Call me
old fashioned, but the part with the parallel fifths in the
middle of the piece realy stood out (in a positive way). I
really like the sound of familiar harmonic material moving in
new melodic manners.

I've explored the scale (with less success than you) in its 31et
version (stepsizes 2 and 7). I think I got too hung up on the
neutral thirds, which don't seem super pervasive in your piece.

I'll have to give it some more listens, thanks a lot.
