There are many different types of Fourier transforms (i.e. generalisations and specifications(?)) useful for signal analysis, not just the (classical full spectrum) FT. E.g. the fractional FT (useful for signal separation), laplace transform (used all over the place in control for linear(ised) systems and analysis).

Well momentum is the FT of position so...

Also note the OP's question is "Whats wave math?" not "why don't use the (D|F)FT?" which I'm still surprised was suggested: Its a tool, use it when appropriate, use something else when its not.

What would be a good practical project to learn about DSP? Preferably in Python, and preferably relevant to music somehow.

Well I did most of my signals analysis with an oscilloscope circuitry and a function (read: waveform) generator. You could very easily get computer versions of those and substitute the function generator for some music. But I'd consult the elders of the internet for better ideas.
