Here's my Talking Heads-esque microtonal funk tune (7.7Mb 192 kbps):

Tuned to adaptive 7-limit just intonation using my own software, alt-tuner.

Very nice and quirky. Refreshing to hear something with a rock structure.

Wow! I wasn't expecting this to be so much fun and the microtonal lines to be so expressive. When I saw microtonal, I was expecting something impenetrable. The lyrics are witty and entertaining. Great job!

Seconded! I love the second verse (of course), the vocals were spot on for the tone, and the instrumentation was groovy. Some of the wonky lead synth parts reminded me of Gorillaz, particularly their song 19-2000.

Yeah! Great and original. Thank you for that.

"Minus one" tracks now added! Minus lead synth, minus lead vocals, and minus both. See the link in the original post.

Plus I've posted a midi file that lets you play back each part individually, microtuned, or even re-render the whole song. Instructions at the link.

Also chord progressions, tunings, and lyrics.
