Label or Gendre?[edit]

Everything is already invented in music. Besides, machines will compose music from now on, providing enough variation in sound, time and notes. Anyway, as long as people consume music, or whatever it’s called music, they’ll be music distribution companies and maybe authors and interpreters. In order to well sell music, music distribution companies must keep innovating at least labels. Again, all possible combinations of notes, attitudes, sounds, instruments are already invented. The only thing companies have to do to keep selling is: 1º Advertise same music styles with new labels to make it appear new. 2º Expect young people to be ignorant and in general society to forget where we come from and where we go. We come from exactly here and we go nowhere else, since we have the same wars as we had in the past and we’ll have in the future. I listen to the music and I play music to enjoy and that’s the point of it. I don’t need labels or companies to tell me what should I like or buy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.163.26.99 (talk) 15:18, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Drone music[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Drone music's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "nyt":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT ⚡ 02:21, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
