Fyxámian classical music

From its Talman, Bjeheondian and Txapoallian roots, Fyxám developed a unique musical tradition.

Common instruments include various traditional Talman and Bjeheondian instruments.

Vaguely Wilsonian tunings + Bjeheondian rhythms + Naquian theatrics

Populism

In the modern period, Fyxámian art music took a sharp populist turn. As a result, modern Fyxám has much less of a divide between popular music and art music than modern Western culture.

Neoclassicism

In modern times, Neoclassicism emerged as a dissident movement in both Fyxám and Talma (in Fyxám, as a reaction to Populism; in Talma, as a reaction to hyper-academic music).

Modern music

Some genres of modern music include:

• Lighter fare: JI scales built from the harmonic series - pick a number with lots of factors, use that as the denominator for your JI intervals. [Mike Sheiman]
  • Minimalism
• "Prog rock/metal": Many popular musicians borrow heavily from classical idioms such as: long, quasi-operatic song forms; use of classical JI tunings and harmony; complex rhythms, time signatures and tunings inspired by non-Talman music.
  • "Nerd music": often with sci-fi-themed lyrics; more "exotic" musically.
• "Baroque chiptune": a style inspired by old video games
• Film and video game music: Overlaps somewhat with Fyxámian classical music.
