You may enjoy a sound sample or tonality loop as sound mantra for contemplation or meditation, for upliftment and focusing, or simply as soothing background sound for relaxation and regeneration.

Characteristics

• Hexatonality matrix: There are two common and two exceptional interval distributions within the octave of hexatonalities in the catalogue. The two common distributions are: 1) one Reach step, four whole steps, and one single half step (or semitone); and 2) two Reach steps, two whole steps, and two half steps. The two exceptional interval distributions include: 1) three Reach steps, no whole step, and three half steps; and 2) one augmented Reach step (spanning four half steps), three whole steps, and two half steps.
• HexaProMin: The name indicates that this is a hexa- and Pro tonality with the upper tetrachord PhrygAeolian. As Pro tonality, the lower tetra- or trichord is major without the regressive quart. The identifier Pro stands for progressive.
• Step pattern: Ascending from the fundamental (tonic or Do), two consecutive whole steps lead to a Reach step. Then follows a half step. Finally two whole steps lead up to the octave.
• Scale intervals: Major second, major third, quint, minor sixth, and minor seventh.
• Tetra- and trichords: The lower tetra- or trichord is PentaMaj and the upper is PhrygAeolian.
• Harmonic axes: There are two axes, EN-WS and ES-WN.
• Primary harmonic anchors: The fundamental or North anchor is partially present, with its head and right leg. The East and West anchors are present without heads but each with both legs. The contrasting or South anchor is completely absent.
• Secondary harmonic anchors: One secondary anchor is present, SW. It emphasizes the fundamental North anchor with the quint, and to a lesser degree the West anchor.
• Hexa- to Hepta- and Pentatonality correlation: HexaProMin is equivalent to IonAeolian without quart or to PentaProMin with minor sixth.
