Information in Music

Vague Conjecture
Information in music is not objectively measurable. It depends on the listeners ability to recognize patterns and filter out noise.

As an example, you could organize a subset of the electronic music genres in a circle, where information amount is ever increasing, and at the top you would have noise, which has extremely much or little information, depending on the listeners point of view. ___                  _.---(__ )--.    \               ,-''      (_/    `--.\                         (_)     _,,:.
