Intro

Here the idea is that each number of beats per measure is assigned a pitch, so e.g. 7 beats to the bar corresponds to the seventh harmonic, 5 beats to the bar corresponds to the fifth and so on.

The results sound harmoniously together as they use pitches from the harmonic series. You can shift all the notes into the same octave if desired (as harmonic series notes may be spread over several octaves).

Genres for these rhythms include:: Music therapy, especially users of the Lambdoma Keyboard. May be of interest to microtonal composers. Also for fun :)
