| theory I ,Christopher McMahon, have been deeply interested in the idea of purist turntable music for many years now i.e the production of generic music dependent soley on the turntable instrument as the epi-center of theory to be used in music production .To my mind purist turntable theoy has never previously been achieved, and I now am deeply pleased to share the fruits of my labour with the turntable/dance music industry.

I believe this table offers the basis of recording or documenting of musical score, the stave. The music structure consisting of claps was explained in an Open University programme in the 1990’s in relation to the composer Steve Reich; however the 12 tone scale in relation to media production has its previous origins in twentieth century science fiction music scores. Its constant use does suggest anachronism and regenerating originality(this generation all originality does and will stem from the turntable and audio mixer instrument.) I believe the central core of this pattern represents the basis of 4/4 common time. The structure should never be concieved of as static, still,unanimated,unliving: Assymetry will allow this living scale to include an octave via reflecting, never repeating.Reflection of the common time core allows for each interval or degree to be aptly named:tonic, super tonic, mediant, sub dominant, dominant, sub mediant, leading note and finally the upper tonic. |
