There are various kinds of New Age 'sound environment' experiences, sometimes including natural sounds or instruments playing nondescript improvisations. These forms of music are most often designed to encourage relaxed or meditative states. There is 12-tone (sometimes called serial) music which treats all 12 tones of the diatonic scale equally and creates a fascinating musical vocabulary but with no discernable melody. this music (sometimes called, I think ambiguously, atonal*) even shares some structual ideas with Bach's fugues. There is minimalist or pattern music, exemplified by the contemporary Philip Glass. There may be melodic or thematic elements, but when you hear some (if you never have) you probably will not conclude that you are listening to melody in the usual sense. *Twelve-tone music is anything but a-tonal (without tone). If anything, it is hypertonal, taking into account every tone, each with equal weight, in every composition. The use of "atonal" refers to the fact that music written this way has no "tonic"; it is not written in a key in the usual sense of the word. Atonic may be more descriptive.
Gregorian chant has melody without a strict meter as 2, 3, or 4 beats per measure. There is a more-or-less steady beat with a pause at the end of a phrase, typically. But the length of the phrase just depends on how many syllables are in the text.
Yes, it is possible, but if you are anything like me, you would be bored rigid, without music.
Not only do I work with music, but you can guarantee that there will be music playing in my house at any time we are awake.
So in answer to your question, yes life without music is possible, but to all of us that are used to hearing music somewhere during our daily lives, this is unimaginable.
Music was my first love
And it will be my last
Music of the future
And music of the past
To live without my music
Would be impossible to do
In this world of troubles
My music pulls me through
(Lyrics by John Miles from the song Music)
There are no songs without a melody because if it doesn't it wouldn't be a song. Every song needs a melody in order to be a song. There is a type of song called a chant, though some might say a chant is not a song. The chant has no actual melody and the words are usually from an oral tratition used before the written word to tell stories or anything that people want to remember. The words or story is more important than the melody which can change with each singing as the singer wishes. Many different cultures have traditional stories handed down through many generations through chant.

What is cultural music?

Is there a culture without music?
This is probably difficult to answer with credible records to support but... Music is ubiquitous and seems to be an instinct of human. Is there any records of a culture, tribe, religion or ethnicity that does not have music? Please note the word "music" has a very broad definition. Any type of rhythmic patterns can count. May it be a person yelling, or making noises with stones. As long as the rhythmic pattern is repeated and is constant, it can be music. I highly doubt there would be any.
2 part harmony?
I'm assuming that you're asking "What is 2-part harmony?". 2-part harmony, though often referring to vocal music, is any music written for one main instrument type (with optional background accompaniment) where two different melody lines are written. The song itself is called a duet (written for two), while the actual interaction of the two different melody lines at the same time is called 2-part harmony.

What do you call a rock music channel without no music?
A rock music channel without any music would typically be referred to as a "talk show" or "talk radio" channel, where hosts and guests discuss various topics related to rock music, such as history, trends, and news. It may also be called a "rock music podcast" if the content is available for on-demand listening. The absence of music would differentiate it from traditional rock music channels that play music continuously.
Why do you think rhythm can exist without melody but melody cannot exist without rhythm?
Music comes with three elements: Harmony, Melody, Rhythm as per this article..melody cannot exist without rhythm.. http://www.kennedy-center.org/nso/classicalmusiccompanion/rhythm.html but i am still searching ____ Theoretically, yes. Typically, rhythm requires a pattern and repetition of that pattern (as with ALL musical ideas, there are exceptions). Also, the concept of rhythm is historically-specific. Our biased, contemporary ears might hear rhythms in music whose creators had different concepts/ideas for what they were doing. So, maybe a melody that does not exist in any regular/patterned time (beatless, meterless) and/or doesn't repeat any rhythmic patterns. Similarly, there can be rhythm without melody. Some Christian liturgical chants and opera recitatives have usually-brief sections w/o melody. Lots of rap doesn't have melody. Basically, many declamatory singing styles don't have melody.
