jeff,

that's very interesting to say. styles may exhaust themselves but not
specific works within a style. 

in my view, a skeleton, a specific way of structuring a piece of music, or a
particular attitude towards the sound[let?s say microsound],  is exhausted
when functions as a kind of safety for the artist, -even when it's supposed
to be experimental. 

this goes for the listeners as well.

the same thing that keeps other musics invigorated;

musicians who take risks.

 

 

cheers,
