There are, by the way, several microtonal recordings with at least a fair amount of poppish appeal. Although he performs in a wide variety of styles, Neil Haverstick's first CD is mostly in an R&B style. Also Elaine Mullen (formerly Elaine Walker) has done quite a bit of microtonal "techno" music. I don't claim to be an expert on Jon Catler's music, but I think I recall that at least some of it has a fair amount of pop appeal. That strikes me as pretty much true of Paul Fly's music too. Also, "Other Music" (the folks who head up the Just Intonation Network) once characterized their music as "polyrhythmic pop tunes with a long memory".
