This article contains no citations, and when I attempted to find relevant citations I could find nothing which was not promotional material for the band mentioned in the article. There appear to be no other bands associated with this genre. The producer who coined the term is in this band. Appears to fail WP:MUSIC.

• Delete Speaking as someone who has been a fan of both science fiction and psychedelic music for decades, I would very much like to say "Keep". However, the Google hits are all trivial, and there is nothing whatsoever in Google News or Google Books. It seems to be a neologism coined by and used by just one artist/producer. Sorry, but it isn't notable by Wikipedia standards. Cullen328 (talk) 04:12, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I know what you mean, I love sci-fi and psychedelic music too, and I would love if this was a notable genre term. I'm almost sorry that it's not.Blackmagnetictape (talk) 15:39, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - made-up neologism. Blacktape, if you like SF and psychedelic music, I suggest you come to some science fiction conventions and join in the filk music sessions. (Just don't, please, call it "sci-fi", a pejorative reserved for the kind of crud on the channel formerly of that name!) --Orange Mike | Talk 16:23, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - The term seems to be emerging as slang in a few geek communities and there is actually a band on MySpace with this name. But if it's a genre it has not been noticed as such by the outside world. This article could also be seen as a violation of the original research rule. --DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 22:00, 16 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
