This is a piece in a microtonal tuning - but sounds very much like pentatonic in "normal" 12 equal tuning to my ears. But I work in microtonal tunings all the time and may be biased.
How "in tune" does this sound to you?

I think that for the type of piece, this is in tune - almost. A little tighten here and there, it would be perfect. Playing in harmony most of the way through, well it has to be in tune!

I had missed this one when it was first put up by Chris Vaisvil and Norm (Still waiting) i heard it today for the first time and it struck a chord so i asked Chris if i could add some words and being the generous man he is, he said yes. So i set…

Comments on vaisvil's stuff
Just found the headphones in 3 year old's bed. The tones have come alive and anyway, how do you play that thing?
Nice!
This is insane!!!
I can hear the quarter tones. Intriguing!
Neat!
enjoyed that Chris...............
Dreamy!
A most effective and fine composition. Hypnotic ending!
cool effects.
TD indeed! I wish they still sounded like this.
I hear bits where it's obviously not the "standard" tuning we've been trained to hear as "right" but this piece is quite beautiful to my ears!
I think I'm too used to hearing equal temperament. Sounds out of tune to me in places but not unpleasantly so. Will have to listen a couple more times
That's some tonkin' honkin'
Very nice "pure" harmonies! Ooo, lovely high notes!
and a Ho!!! Ho!!! Ho!!!! HAPPY CHRISTMAS ALL!!!!!!!
Most of the notes are on pitch but some are maybe a few cents flat? I agree with Sister.
I mean, it is in harmony, therefore, is in tune! Almost!

I agree with Norm 9/10 loved the tune..
Ah, so lovely...the intro was especially soul-sweetening.
Comments made by vaisvil
you certainly did this one justice - lovely!
exquisite! The choral entrance is set up extremely well.
cool cover!!
this is what I'm talk about!! Rocking! So did your hands hurt hitting the metal?
nice work Richard!
Norm I really like it! Is there anyway I could you into sending me the TUBS for the main beat? I want to plagiarize it for a marimba part.
awesome! You are unleashing your inner Sonny Landreth!
whoa! The gong sounds HUGE!
excellent work - sad, sad blues.
wow you nail Elvis so well.
and I 2nd what Norm said - you have an amazing tonal control over your voice.
lovely
this just excellent - the production has great clarity too!
this is an excellent collaboration!
Thanks for doing this!!
hehe! excellent!
sounds like early Who - excellent!!
or the seventh son of a seventh son! My bass is looking at me :-)
I'm hating it too. Its just an infection I think. Nothing personal ;-)
great track - and yet another side to your voice.
