What is music?

What is music? By that I mean what do you consider being how music is supposed to be. It's an age-old argument between different people that like certain types of music better. We can take techno music as one example. Some would argue saying that techno isn't music, since it's basically made by a computer and manipulated and the lyrics, if there is any, doesn't have any meaning. Five minutes of "Get to the dancefloor" isn't exactly the best content in a song, that some mean should be more like a poem.

On the other side we have black/death metal. Is this just noise or is this more music than for example techno? Guitar and drum solos often play a big part in the music, so surely this is music. Since they do use instruments, it can be argued that it is in fact music, even though they (in some cases) just throw in simple commands as lyrics, and thus the singing isn't that important.

Is music just sound? Is it automaticallly music if you use an instrument? Is song different from music?
What do you think?

i think music needs instruments.Instruments take skill , to play techno etc you just really need to use drum machines and stuff which is basically music samples made by someone else.i personally think rock music in the 80s and 90s was the best but thats just my opinion
