Quickly got bored mulling over the semantics of what qualifies something as minimal.. and then I came across Iannis Xenakis' Electroacoustic music.. Can't really define electroacoustical either but maybe it's a better example of what you were thinking of? Have you listened to Microstoria's Model 3, Step 2? Kind of reminds me of Xenakis a little. I used to love that one. On Wed, Sep 20, 2017 at 4:53 PM, Ransom Schafer <ransom.schafer@gmail.com> wrote:
