Cyber jazz

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The article consists mostly of original research. This doesn't seem to be a recognized style of music, much less the artistic movement that (I think) this article implies. The cited sources don't really corroborate what the article says: A band called Gemini Soul describes their own music as "cyber jazz" ("jazz funk-fusion with an electronic element"), but it doesn't seem it's anything like what this article is trying to describe (influences such as Blade Runner and "values like nihilism" [sic]). mentions neither "cyber" nor "jazz" (although as the source is non-English I'm not certain if or how it relates to cyber jazz at all). The (dead) link about Eternal Network mentions neither "cyber" nor "jazz" nor, for that matter, anything about the point being made in the article. is only about "cyber jazz" in the context of listening to jazz via the internet (streaming audio etc.). doesn't mention mention "cyber jazz".

 * Delete Seems to be a non-notable neologism and not an actual genre of music. No information on it's history development, or what differentiates it from other more established genres of music.  All the artists mentioned actually belong to larger more prominent genres like avant garde or the various noise genres. Ridernyc (talk) 22:24, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
 * in addition taking a closer look at the article it reads like rambling made up OR non-sense. The last section in particular is just rambling pseudo intellectualism. Looks like someone made an article for some fringe musical theories. Ridernyc (talk) 22:53, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete none of the sources support the idea that this is a genre. Fails WP:NOTE.--  SabreBD  (talk) 23:13, 22 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete based on past outcomes. We have almost always deleted new genres of music; alternative metal notwithstanding. Bearian (talk) 21:06, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
