Oct 14, 2014 at 17:09 comment added NReilingh Mod The purpose of this discussion shouldn't be scope, but I was under the impression that music business questions weren't being closed as off-topic, they're just asked less frequently.
Oct 14, 2014 at 17:06 comment added empty @CurlyPaul, so would I. I mean no disrepect. However you have to admit that Theory posts greatly outnumber performance posts. Hence I'm in favor of the name "Music Theory and Practice" which I think covers what we do here better.
Oct 14, 2014 at 16:52 comment added CurlyPaul @kevin I'm an instrumentalist but I would include anyone who creates music a musician, be it electronic or otherwise. Interesting how words have different connotations for different people
Oct 8, 2014 at 20:13 comment added empty I like it for its simplicity but issues pertaining to professional musicians such as touring, contracts, copyright and royalties, record labels, negotiations and hiring/firing band members appear to be absent or discouraged. So I'd stick with Music: Theory & Practice.
Sep 28, 2014 at 12:52 comment added Meaningful Username I like this suggestion for its simplicity, but fear it might discourage people from joining the site. I don't see myself as a musician, for one example...
Sep 27, 2014 at 7:32 comment added charlie I'm also an electronic music producer, as well as an instrumentalist, and I think Musician fits both nicely. Producers make music, hence they are Musicians. I also love the simplicity of Musicians.. it incorporates Theory and Practice by definition.
Sep 26, 2014 at 19:36 comment added Kevin As an electronic producer, I'm not a fan of using the name Musicians. I don't play an instrument, but I pay a lot of attention to theory, composition, and software questions. The word "musician," though, is often understood to just mean "instrumentalists." As a result, I feel that the name "Musicians" would suggest our site has a smaller scope than it actually does. (And personally, I'm afraid that the parts of our scope it would deemphasize are the ones I'm most interested in.)
