kennethreitz b3c3c4810c Chakra: uke opening, 808 sub throughout, more space, lower register
- Ukulele opens with gentle fingerpicking, fades after sacral

- Harmonium dropped octave with rests between chords
- Singing bowl strikes every 4 bars (was 2)

kennethreitz 8cd0fd7431 Chakra: equal temperament at 432 Hz, lower volumes
Dropped just intonation (was causing dissonance with harmonium).
Equal temperament at A=432 still gives the healing frequency vibe.
Further volume reductions.

kennethreitz 61b7ce9389 Chakra: 432 Hz tuning, scale tones for bowl, no more dissonant Solfeggio
Replaced exact Solfeggio frequencies with scale-consonant tones at
A=432 Hz reference pitch. Bowl ascends through G4 → C5 → E5 → E6
following the key centers. Just intonation + 432 Hz = pure warmth.

kennethreitz c82834c7d6 Track 3: Chakra — root to crown frequency activation journey
Seven sections targeting Solfeggio chakra frequencies with metric
modulation tempo increases (60 → 90 → 108 → 135 BPM).

Tambura drone, harmonium, FM singing bowl, Rhodes arps, sitar melody,
tabla (enters solar plexus), theremin (enters throat chakra).
Crown dissolves into pure 963 Hz and silence.
