about

Possible Worlds Volume Two continues Spectropol's showcase of contemporary microtonal/xenharmonic music and sound art from around the world.

There are many approaches to pitch use outside non-12-tone equal temperament on display here, conveyed through a wide variety of musical styles. Artists in this collection, which include well-established experts in microtonal practice, explore just intonation, the harmonic series, free & mixed tunings, extended playing techniques, invented instruments, and an emphasis on various equal divisions of the octave.

Despite the variety of sound presented, the playlist is designed to be a compelling experience straight through, the exploration of xenharmonic pitch space serving as a common link among a group of tracks we consider excellent in any venue.
