I think the main reason is that it uses the pentatonic scale - there are only 5 notes in it (repeating every octave), and these notes generally sound good together. On a piano, this would be all of the black keys.
It's a common starting scale for beginners learning to improvise, particularly on the guitar.
- 4gotunameagain 4y agoMinor nitpick, it is only the F# major pentatonic scale that only uses the black keys of the piano Every scale has a pentatonic version, it just means that you skip some notes basically. Apart from that, I think that the sampled sounds in Plink fit together more easily as well because of the synchronised Staccato, where there are gaps between the notes and the timing is done automatically. Great thing !
