Bio
Drone: A long, sustained note or notes, found in the music of many cultures. Indian Classical music employs a drone, usually played on tamboura or harmonium. Celtic music often has a drone, especially bagpipe tunes, and even Gregorian Chant tends to have a single sustained note, sung or implied. Electronic music has often employed drones as well. Minimalist pioneer Lamonte Young took great inspiration from the drone of step-down transformers on electric lines near his home. And most modal music can be thought of as having a drone, perhaps unplayed, but there as a steady reference.

Machine: Any mechanical or electrical device that transmits or modifies energy to perform or assist in the performance of human tasks
