TvTropes link[edit]

For a much longer list of examples (providing lots of research ground), see the corresponding Tv Tropes page Variable Mix.--Henke37 (talk) 12:16, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Name of the page[edit]

I suggest to change the name to "Adaptive Music" and keep "Dynamic Music" as one of the synonyms (and not the other way around, as it is now). I think that the word "dynamic" is loaded with multiple meanings, especially in the context of music. "Dynamic" is more closely related to Dynamics (music) and has been used on one of the major game developer blogs: https://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/129990/defining_adaptive_music.php

Dynamic music → Adaptive music – The article is about music which adapts to the circumstances of its playback (namely in the video games.) "Dynamic music" (the current title of the article) is related to the quality of music that has to do with Dynamics (music) and not with the adaptiveness of the music material. "Adaptive music" is the more fitting term in this context. (Of course we'll have to rewrite the rest of the article to reflect the change of its title.) Adam J.

@Adam J. Sporka: can you correct the capital M in both fields of the template please? I assume that's a typo. Cheers. In ictu oculi (talk) 14:11, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- @In ictu oculi: Yes, it was, sorry. Thanks! Adam J. Sporka (talk) 14:29, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Although I get twice as many ghits for the current title, they're mostly for other topics, such as the Australian music distributor by that name. The proposed name seems a far more common term for the topic, and is unambiguous as well. Note that much of the content was merged from interactive music.
