Correct.

And also, "music" made by the planets (as opposed to music made by Gustav Holst) falls a bit into the category of "If a tree falls...". If you admit this, you would also have to include this, which is much older.... though not many people can actually hear it:

That is an apples to orange comparison. The sound of a tree falling in the wood produces a sound wave only lasting a few seconds. That is an infinitesimal amount of time compared to the planets which have been making experimental music for millions of years.

It's only experimental music to us. To the planets, their own noise is probably considered folk, while they consider the sounds of other planets to be world music.
