Love the overtone singing! Sonically, this reminds me of some Divinity II: Original Sin tracks. Nice work!

Description
Really playing with timbres and textures in this. I have really been experimenting a lot with Just intonation, pure tones, as well as the effect of overlaying a major and a minor third, especially in these pure intonations.
To achieve that strange sound, I sharped the minor third into a just minor third, and then singing a major third overtone about.
Composers like Ravel and Debussy make use of that contrast between the major third and minor third, treating the major third like an accidental while writing in Dorian mode.
