A recording is available here: acreil.bandcamp.com/album/intangible-pavilions
and on Spotify: distrokid.com/hyperfollow/acreil/ceN1
This uses an 8 note just intonation scale. The frequencies are 300, 350, 400, 433.3, 475, 500, 550 and 575 Hz, or 36:42:48:52:57:60:66:69. The main idea was to test a distortion algorithm; I think distortion works much better on just intonation scales. The frequencies were entered more or less arbitrarily, with some minor fiddling, but I was surprised at how consonant it sounded. Primes are 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 19 and 23.
