       I called this piece Susanoo ( スサノヲ ), after the Shintō god of the sea, storms, fields, the harvest, marriage, and love. "One of the central deities of the imperial Japanese mythological cycle recorded in the Kojiki (c. 712 CE) and the Nihon Shoki (720 CE)" (Wikipedia), and also the god at the center of the manga "The Dark Myth" (暗黒神話 , Ankoku Shinwa), by the great Morohoshi Daijirou (諸星 大二郎).Susa-no-o is also the god of unexpected behavior -- one that disrupts the established order by introducing chaotic, sometimes violent outbursts. In this piece, I assigned this role to slap bass -- the only instrument exclusively playing quarter tones; the only character whose temperament is off the scale, if you'd allow me the pun. In opposition, pianos, marimba, vibraphone, trombones, and darboka all play in standard 12-TET.I hope you're going to enjoy Susanoo!Best,Eidon.#Bandcamp: https://eidon.bandcamp.com/track/susanoo#Youtube: https://youtu.be/nAT10gfL7oY#諸星大二郎 #MoroboshiDaijirou#暗黒神話 #AnkokuShinwaMusic by Eidon, (c) Eidon (Eidon@tutanota.com, Eidon.Songs@gmail.com).The video makes use of the following videos:Zooming in on the Horsehead Nebula (3D)https://esahubble.org/videos/heic1307b/Credit: NASA, ESA, the Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA); G.
