True Love Waits - Radiohead (with Levi McClain, Braelen Addison)

Описание

@LeviMcClain and I had the idea to do a microtonal cover in 31-TET of "True Love Waits." It's here and I'm SO EXCITED! Do check out his video on how this was made if you're eager for theory details. Huge thanks to Levi for all his massive editing work in making this cover into a beautiful, high-quality homage to this great song. Also check out @braelen whose singing on this is deeply masterful and emotional! His YouTube channel is also mad cool. I don't know a complete list of instruments that Levi used, but I'm sure it's nuts. (Featuring me on the Lumatone).

The progression has been changed from (in 12-TET):
C-E-G-B
A-C-E-G-B
Ab-C-Eb-G-Bb

to (in 31-TET):
C-Eǂ-G-Bǂ
Aǂ-C-Eǂ-G-Bǂ
Adb-C-Edb-G-Bdb

This widens the distance between the second and third chords' chromatic semitones (how shamelessly parallel), hopefully making the bass line a bit xenharmonic. There's also a Gsus chord at times that is allowed to have Fǂ over it, which is not heard in the video (though we do hear Fǂ many other times). However, the widened distance (imo) makes it ok for chromatic clusters to be played since there's more space above the chord. You can hear Bdb, Bǂ, and C played at the same time at 02:33.
