Tolgahan Çoğulu: Microtonal Guitar
A modified classical guitar to play microtones; demonstrates with an excerpt of a Turkish melody.
Jacob Collier delves into music nerdery, showing how it’s possible to harmonize any note with every chord or how a diminished chord lets you modulate to anywhere.
Self-described ‘drama rock’ in Portuguese. Feels inspired by Frank Zappa sometimes. I like the diversity of complex textures on this album. There’s also birds!
Ana Vidovic: Live concert from St. Mark's, SF
An hour of classical guitar; works by Bach, Brouwer, Scarlatti, Albeniz.
Abo Sahar (أبو سهر): Moulid Kholkhal (مولد خلخال)
Arabic microtonal melodies, electronic effects, shaabi rhythms.
Abo Sahar (أبو سهر): Mizmar Abosahar

Abo Sahar (أبو سهر): Trobby Asly
