  2. That is what I hate about ANALOGUE synthesizers. That piecce was terribly out of tune. How can one live with that?

  3. I liked it! I am wondering what a piece of sheet music from this song would look like? Would you just note scale and then write it out regularly or do you come up with a whole new clef?
    I think it might sound "out of tune" due to the scale...and I like the warbling nature - like music with sirens :)

  5. 1974: Harry Partch develops 43 note per octave chromatic scale. Tries to come up with a popular use for it. Unfortunately dies the same year his work is published.

    Thirty years go by. Nothing happens. Until...

    2004: Crazy Frog!

    (Harry turns over in his grave.)
