Link to "Echoes" interviews[edit]

I am restoring the link to the free "Echoes" interview page. This is an important reliable third party resource by one of the leading ambient music radio shows on US public radio, and it provides insights on the subject of this article that are, to my knowledge, not available anywhere else. --Gene_poole 21:39, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

When the host of the show, Jdiliberto, mass adds links, it is WP:SPAM and WP:COI) IrishGuy ^talk 21:41, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm adding them, and I'm not the host. If you can find an alternative series of interviews from an alternative free, reliable third party source, then please add them. --Gene_poole 21:52, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(to Irish Guy) Not necessarily. WP:BITE and WP:AGF are also important guidelines, perhaps even more important than either WP:SPAM or WP:COI. Are the links relevant for the articles? If the links were added by any other user, would there be a problem? And besides, five links hardly constitute "mass" adding links. Each of the links was to different content that was pertinent to article. older ≠ wiser 21:53, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pioneer[edit]

I'm curious as to why Roach is described as a "pioneer" of ambient music. Is there a purely American context for the claim? If so, then the claim needs to be written as such. If not, then such references are POV and not founded in fact, as releasing a debut album in 1979 obviously proves. Yankoz

Peacock cleared[edit]

The page has recently been cleaned down to bare bone; any peacocks that may have roosted here (as the fossil record a.k.a. page history bears out) have clearly been driven extinct by now. I am accordingly removing the tag. Freederick (talk) 02:15, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Brilliant sentence[edit]

"His approach to ambient music has typically been beatless, although his rhythmic and trance-based groove and tribal-ambient releases are nearly as numerous as his more atmospheric releases."

So basically, he's only involved with beatless music. Except he does music with beats also. Glad we got all that squared away... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.138.236.201 (talk) 18:46, 19 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
