Aegean is a key with its own distinctive character. It is like a Nordlys constructed from the lydian scale. Lydian is related to major, which is known for its cheerful character.
The difference between major and lydian is that lydian has a more dreamy and magical character. This addition of dreamy tones makes it a colourful scale, which is very imaginative.
Aegean is a vote that starts lower than usual. Usually, after the thing (the central middle) made a five-note jump to the next tone. At Aegean this is a jump of only three notes. This means that there are above-average bass notes to be found within this tuning. It adds to the warm character this tuning has.
To enable this low start, some other notes are skipped in the tone sequence. The major second and major sixth are skipped. Skipping these notes also makes it a little easier to find beautiful and harmonious harmonies. This makes Aegean a tuning that is easily intuitive and free to play!
Nitrided Steel
Nitrated steel is characterised by a short to medium sustain, and a warm and deep sound. It has fewer high frequencies than stainless steel or ember steel, giving the sound of nitrated steel a more rounded character.
This round character, combined with a short to medium sustain, makes nitrided steel a versatile material, capable of producing both meditative and percussive sounds.
