Octave is a silly name.

There are only 8 notes in an (major scale, say) octave in the same way that there are Eight Days a Week.

You know:

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, & Sunday.

The last one is more commonly called Beatlesday & usually follows a Hard Day's Night ;).

Man, you should hear the jams on my planet.

First I play: 00000001

Then the bassotoid player plays 00000010

& then the BOOMbot kicks in with 00000011. Where'd it come up with *that*?!?

...my mind is now completely *blown*. So to totally f@ck them up, I slink in out of NOWHERE with 00000100.

Good times, good times!!!

Too little pre-resolved tension.

One must needs commence with 00000000.

And this, brother and sister Fretters, is why all paint cans in and around the house should be tightly sealed.

Ya, 7va and 7va bassa would really blow those orchestral musicians minds (and considering how much musicians tend to drink... that's quite something).

For those that don't speak binary, I will translate (not that that will necessarily make things any clearer ;))

Firs off, there are two ways to write binary numbers (depending on the size of your Endian). I'm putting the least significant bit on the right.

So,

00000000 = 0
00000001 = 1
00000010 = 2
00000011 = 3
00000100 = 4

00000111 = 7
00001000 = 8

00101010 = 42

Now the translation:

Man, you should hear the jams on my planet.

First I play: 1

Then the bassotoid player plays 2

& then the BOOMbot kicks in with 3. Where'd it come up with *that*?!?

...my mind is now completely *blown*. So to totally f@ck them up, I slink in out of NOWHERE with 4.

Good times, good times!!!
