A melody (from Greek μελῳδία (melōidía) 'singing, chanting'),[1] also tune, voice or line, is a linear succession of musical tones that the listener perceives as a single entity.

The problem here is with the compositions absolute randomness of nature. It sounds exactly like what was being produced by computers, before some of the more advanced audio models came about. It doesn't sound like any kind of single entity, and it would be nearly impossible for anyone to distinguish it from random sounds.

In a cacophony of random elements, I couldn't hear this song. But I could hear most others without issue. It doesn't meet the sniff test.

The melodies existing in most European music written before the 20th century, and popular music throughout the 20th century, featured "fixed and easily discernible frequency patterns", recurring "events, often periodic, at all structural levels" and "recurrence of durations and patterns of durations".

All of which this lacks. It simply doesn't meet the definition of music. Though I bet it's a great source of inspiration for those experimenting with music themselves. Honestly, I had to load it up in YouTube to make sure the web-based music player wasn't glitching out or something; it was bad enough as "music" that I thought something was wrong with the computer.

But I'll just kindly agree to disagree - if you enjoy it, great. I just wouldn't even consider this music and would immediately ask for music to be put on.
