That's completely wrong. Your recognise notes because you have been
conditioned for them. It could be any set of frequencies.
The limited use of other frequencies can produce
rhythms to bind the
notes into musical compositions. Technology gives us the ability to
turn everything into a drum, but you still need those 12 frequencies
to produce melody.
Again wrong. The existence of melody does not depend on the Western
12-note scale.
