With James Mulvale, we discuss what it's like to be new to microtonality, working in a DAW and with instruments. We also talk about microtonality in pop music and in the media, creative ideas, and how recent music has been trending towards becoming more microtonal on a variety of levels. James has a new microtonal radio show - be sure to check it out at the link below!
