Which is interesting, but let´s remember it´s a personal statement from
Stockhausen, it does not turn into objective fact simply by him being so
important and influential. Aphex may or may not be a "thought musician" or
even a "great composer", perhaps at the same time as bing a clever techno
producer regardless of what Stockhausen thinks.
