Traditional Clofabian music is based around improvisation. In modern times it may be called ''coplimeran'' (free music) to distinguish it from later traditions of composed music. | Traditional Clofabian music is based around improvisation.

''Nabitameran'', literally 'remembered music', is a relatively recent tradition that is in the Baroque-chiptune cluster. It usually uses a 12-note meantone tuning given by stacking 11 fifths, and modern electronic music standardized this to 12 equally spaced notes per octave. Sometimes non-meantone tunings such as 17edo and superpyth tunings are used, however. | ''Nabitameran'', literally 'remembered music', is a relatively recent tradition that is in the Baroque-chiptune cluster.

Common instruments used are the harpsichord, the organ and the uniquely Clofabian claviorganum, where a note is played by simultaneously plucking a harpsichord string and blowing through organ pipes. The claviorganum may be slightly detuned for a shimmering vibrato effect. | Common instruments used are the harpsichord (''pressin''), the organ (''fluin'') and the uniquely Clofabian claviorganum (''pressofluin''), where a note is played by simultaneously plucking a harpsichord string and blowing through organ pipes.

#'''"Acoustic chiptune"''' was pioneered by Semopoetin Zyrtec. Semopoetin would use voices played by harpsichords, organs, claviorganums and drums in his "incidental music" for plays and dance music. This style is something of a hybrid of 8-bit video game music on Earth and Scarlatti sonatas. | #'''"Acoustic chiptune"''' was pioneered by Semopoetin Zyrtec.

#'''Clofabian electronic music''' began as improvisation over a bass line, and took on Baroque-like complexity as time went on. Early Clofabian music systems used 2 square wave channels + 1 triangle wave channel + 1 percussion channel like Famicom. This grew to 4 voice channels as composers began to write increasingly complex contrapuntal music. This style is, not surprisingly, also used for Clofabian video game music. | #'''Clofabian electronic music''' began as improvisation over a bass line, and took on Baroque-like complexity as time went on.

Yacaic tunings use generally chromatic-sized steps, e.g. 8ed3/2, 13edo, 20ed3, 12edo, 18ed3, 11edo, 6ed3/2. Most Yacaic instruments are fixed pitch (metallophones, rhodes piano, mbiras). Nowadays most Yacaic ensembles use 12edo or 20ed3. | |||
