Yeah, when I decided to get around communities, dedicated to drone music, I was disappointed to see that 90% of what
the communitites I went to understood by droning was that brutal guitar noise. It's when you want to get away from all that
beer and rock music and suddenly find that by "drone" they mean... beer and rock music!
I do enjoy some of the guitar droning though, it is a rather "tasty" sound sometimes.

However, Steve Roach is as known as "drone". I just do "ambient drone".

As for the "droning" project itself, its one project I am not willing to "market", if you know what I mean. I think to some people
its value will be evident, but to many - not, no matter how I call it.

I've written a little bit about the idea of the project here:

Negative way? How come? I love drone music. And there are many people who do.
Including absolutely minimalistic stuff.


I do love both genres, but droning might be more connected to more brutal sounds like sunnO))) and the like, while the two songs of yours I heard so far could maybe benefit from being termed ambient. I'm guessing that's what he's getting at. Two sides of the same coin though, I don't see anything wrong with calling it droning, when that's exactly what it is :)
