Abstract
Each target article contributes important proto-musical building blocks that constrain music-as-we-know-it. However, neither the credible signaling nor social bonding accounts elucidate the central mystery of why music sounds the way it does. Getting there requires working out how proto-musical building blocks combine and interact to create the complex, rich and affecting music humans create and enjoy.
