Contested deletion

[edit]

This page should not be speedy deleted because... secondly, one of the criteria for 'notability' is:

Is an ensemble which contains two or more independently notable musicians, or is a musician who has been a member of two or more independently notable ensembles.


I would regard both Onnen Bock and Roedelius as notable, especially Roedelius, who has a large wikipedia page and a substantial following. Qluster have also performed on tour in Germany earlier this year, as several videos on vimeo.com and youtube.com testify.

Finally, Qluster are the sequel band to Cluster, who are regarded as one of the most important electronic bands of the past 40 years. Indeed, Roedelius has been the subject of a widely available book - "Painting with Sounds: The Life and Music of Hans-Joachim Roedelius" and so is hardly 'unnotable'. I rest my case!KosmischeSynth (talk) 14:59, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Videos of their own making are irrelevant to establish notability. What we're looking for is third-party significant coverage of the tour in Germany. Something like a respected magazine or webzine. -- Blanchardb -MeMyEarsMyMouth- timed 17:52, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
