Seconding mentions of Jules Reidy and Horse Lords - both making microtonal music that’s actually musical and not just an exercise of how to be different.
Also, not purposefully microtonal per sé just because it differs from western tunings, but GAMELAN

That festival started in 1997 and has featured a lot of great music. I got to hear Harry Partch’s instruments in person, meet Lou Harrison, and experience some genuinely wild phenomena related to microtonality.
I found this video on a microtonal thread on Reddit.
Don´t know exactly what´s happening… seems to be microtonal and also a (logical?) phantasy language (maybe?). Then it has also some infographics, which show some scale stuff as well as throat stuff as some websites…
It seems to be from Japan (of course… who else would do such crazy stuff …)
Me too. Harry Partch can never be mentioned too much.
I especially like the performances where he’s doing the main vocal part—like some weird microtonal fusion of Tom Waits and Charles Bukowski …
And of course my all time favorite. Can’t get enough of Harry… (Edit: This performance has more of Harry’s vocals, vs. the also excellent revised version posted earlier in the thread.)
