is it correct to talk about songs if we are talking about
aphex, autechre...?
the way i see it, they should be called tracks... when I say
song I think more of a sung one (with lyrics i mean)
what do you think... welll probably is the fucking same

I love vose in!

But I am afraid it is not a "song". Nor is it a "track", or
even a "ditty".

It is an "audiomong".

I call one a sack, or trong.

Once again spoonerisms save the day!

I call it a track, I avoid ''song'' lately... anything
without lyrics or singing, I kind of refrain from using
song.

a song by definition has singing, and a track can
unofficially be defined as a piece of music. technically
speaking, instrumental "tracks" are to be referred to as
works or compositions.

i just say songs, too.
