so I sent that song to a friend of mine who likes pop and classical music. found his response interesting, so I thought i might share: I've heard classical "music" like this before, so it makes sence that it would eventually make it's way to rock... however, if it enjoys the same success at the classical version, then it will never crawl out of obscurity (please please please don't ever let it crawl out of obscurity!!!). For example, consider the Helicopter String Quartet by Karlheinz Stockhausen - this isn't a perfect analogy, but the piece is essentially noise from a structured source. HELICOPTER STRING QUARTET (1992/93) for string quartet, 4 helicopters with pilots and 4 sound technicians 4 television transmitters, 4 x 3 sound transmitters auditorium with 4 columns of televisions and 4 columns of loudspeakers sound projectionist with mixing console / moderator (ad lib.) The duration is circa 32 minutes. Anyway, you get the idea. Also: IANIS XENAKIS was another of the most important Concrete composers who in 1958 composed the piece "Concret PH" using just an amplified burning charcoal as the sound source. And John Cage: "Radio Music" is a work composed using chance operations. The score indicates 56 different frequencies between 55 and 156 kHz, notated using numbers. Cage mentions that the work is in 4 sections, with or without silences between them, to be programmed by the player(s). Anyway, I listened to the whole thing, didn't like it - it was very violent, and I think the guy was screaming in Japanese...
