Gahnah
Electronica musician, apparently nn. Article mentions album released in 2005, but didn't see mention of it on the 12 google hits, which are mostly mp3 sharing sites. No claims of critical acclaim or chart popularity. Saint Midge 05:40, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Opinion Does one have to release a physical album on CD to be worthy of being called an artist? It's a good question and I'm not entirely sure the answer has anything to do with this article but it is a point to be considered. Personally I know nothing about this article, I just gave it a slight tidy and personally I don't mind either way though I would fall towards inclusionist. Ben W Bell 08:32, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * No one doesn't, and there is a specific WP:MUSIC section for performers outside of mass media traditions:

* Is cited in notable and verifiable sources as being influential in style, technique, repertory or teaching in a particular music genre. * Has been a significant musical influence on a musician or composer that qualifies for the above list. * Has established a tradition or school in a particular genre. * Has composed a number of melodies, tunes or standards used in a notable genre, or tradition or school within a notable genre. * Is frequently covered in publications devoted to a notable sub-culture.
 * However, this artist doesn't seem to be covered in that area either, so delete MNewnham 16:15, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
