It would seem that pioneers like Henry and Schaeffer have paved the way
(directly or indirectly) for artists like Lopez to focus on a more
specialized form of composition. Music is definately not a race to see
who has the most ideas. Perhaps what you are really saying is that you
admire Henry and Schaeffer's output more than Lopez's? By the way, I have
the Schaeffer box and love playing it on random/shuffle mode.
