I think he meant that it is only in the presence of humans, and their ability/need to construct meaning from their experience and surroundings, that sound can become noise. Noise implies connotations that have no bearing on other entities who don't share our shared language(s)/experience/psyche. At least, that's what I took from his proposition.The same, of course, applies to the concept of music (more language, meaning, simulacra, etc).
