Scales (Apples in Stereo, Iasos)

Submitted by KG on August 24, 2010 - 8:49pm
Hey guys, I stumbled upon an article about how Robert Schneider, the guy behind Elephant 6 pop band Apples in Stereo, created his own musical scale for his newest album Travellers in Space and Time. I then found a video of Robert explaining his new scale with great enthusiasm: http://www.applesinstereo.com/pythagorean.php The song "C.P.U" makes good use of the new scale. His website also has more info on the math behind the scale. All this talk of scales reminded me of a great video of a guy named Iasos playing Ancient Greek scales on a flute: Thanks to DJ Rebecca for the Iasos video.
