Tunesmith - your refernence to "Quintette du Hot Club de France" with reference to Django, surely has got now't to do with

Hot Club de Paris are an Indie Band.
Indie rock is a genre of alternative rock that primarily exists in the independent underground music scene.
A classically trained pianist, Alasdair is behind all of Hot Club de Paris' harmonies. Many of the songs feature layered up harmony lines and it's this and their natural inclination to write and play in complex time signatures that sets them apart. "Odd time signatures are just something we're used to" explains Matthew, " We listen to so much music that isn't in 4/4 that it's completely natural for us to take influence from that. We don't ever write music just to be awkward, it's just the way we write. People write in 4/4 because that's what they're used to, we're doing exactly the same thing with what we do. " Seems like they know what they are doing in their own way.

So I really can't see what the argument is about.
