Phrygian Melodies (Range Shifting)

Melodies GameHear a melody in one octave, play it back
PhrygianA minor mode with a flat 2nd — dark and exotic

Hear & play phrygian melodies in time while the range shifts and the root shuffles.

Why

  • Spread the phrygian across the whole instrument, an octave at a time, with the root moving under you — the spatial fluency full-range play needs.
