When there is no rhythm. But that doesnt mean it becomes crap.

All 'music'has rhythm. Gwarek 2 doesnt, but a lot of ambient does. Plus i never said i didnt like it. I love it infact.
Bit of a minefield really.

Hmmmm, its always tough. Some people only call it music if it has vocals in it.
I suppose music is down to the person themselves. I class music as rhythmical noise, but then again, i love really ambient stuff, and i'll call it music.
I'd like to rephrase my meaning of music. Sound made by humans.

when construction and deconstruction cancel each other out - when the tension is at its greatest level, but has no land marks (ie no sound) to reference the resultant tension.
to me any sound can be called music, it depends how one listens to it ??? be it traffic, a washing machine or leaves brushing against each other in the wind. but then this leaves the whole meaning of music a little redundant.
I guess it has to be processed in a certain way ... ie recorded or played (as an instrument) or something ?? i don't know ..
Otherwise I'll just opt for the "verse chorus verse" option :)

sounds that are actually put into any type of order or sequence other than their natural occurence: even if random if it is intentially made sound it can be considered music; even talking is considered music by some people

mmm.. yeah .. i guess - the intention of the sound is quite a good definition type thing.
Like .. someone aimlessly mopping a floor wouldn't intentionally do it to make music [yet it still makes a sound], but as soon as he like does it in rhythm - with the intention of making that sound, it could be considered music?

When certain people think so, whatever someone thinks is music, to them it is. It cant get more simple or right than that.

john cage was his name..... my friend says he was a genius
Me and my mum always argue over wot is art.... Tracey Emin for example, my mum doesnt think she makes art. The arguement is the same as the arguement about music.

the track is called 4:33 by john cage and it is the sound of him sitting in front of a piano not playing, but it is more about humour than music
tracy emin does indeed make art, just shitty self-indulgent art that is basically her going "boohoo, i feel sorry for myself and you should feel sorry for me too..." i don't give a shit if her first period was traumatic, cos i am sure that very few women out there go "hey! my wombs first disintergration is really ace!" sorry, just venting
on a similar tip, too many people use the experimental tag to give credability to their poor work including noise-makers: a very small number create genuine pieces of art but most are cunts who can't hack it: throbbing gristle= good, richard devine =megacunt

there are no limits if there were... who would put them? nobody can music is over any fucking critic saying what is music or it is not.
if you want to travel nearby the limits, then get autechre...they are always expanding the meaning of music

some of those notes are pretty funny -- look at the back of the drukqs CD after it says the usual bs about aphex is a registered trademark:
"(This must be in the same font, text size etc. as the rest of artwork and clearly legible)"
but back on topic, i don't think music exists.

Our music teacher said music was anything "With a noticable beat" That would make a tap dripping music and SAW2 tracks not! I think it's hard to define, I've even found the beats of a motor ticking over/seagulls musical. I don't know...

Darth Manchu, that's not true. A lot of Classical music has inconsistent rhythms and that's definitely music. I think anything can be musical. But that's me.

rhythm is all around us - EVERYTHING has a rhythm, so therefore everything is music, therefore nothing is music since there can be no antimusic and there goes music in a *puff* of logic, just like god in the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy!

no, it depends on the speakers' interpretation of 'noise' -- noise can be applied to any fluctuation, and not necessarily aural.
