This is a podcast that plays microtonal music, which is music that exploits tuning systems that are different from the standard 12 tone to the octave scale that's dominated Western Music for the past 500 years. On each show, I'll say a few words, then play a piece composed by one of many modern microtonal composers. I hope that this exposure will help you understand a little more of the world between the 2:1 and the 1:1.

Today's podcast is a very short but delightful piece by Kraig Grady. He calls it an experiment, but I think it's so great, I'm going to play it twice today. He writes:

I had meant to go into Logic Vocoder and see whatIi could do with noise to illustrate to Bill [Sethares] what it might do. But it didn't work at all. While I was there I somehow ended up doing this.--Kraig GradyNorth American Embassy of Anaphoria Island <http://anaphoria.com/>The Wandering Medicine ShowKXLU <http://www.kxlu.com/main.html> 88.9 FM Wed 8-9 pm Los Angeles
