John Prokop, on the Sequenza21 wiki, says his influences include Morton Feldman and Frank Zappa. Could there be another pair of composers whose music is more disparate than these two?
I suggest a combined recording: Shut up and play yer' "feature isolated, carefully chosen, predominantly quiet sounds."
Prokop also cites one of my favorite composers from the recent past -- Kevin Volans. I would blog more about Volans if I could find an American tie-in.
