there's so many ways to go with this: Schoenberg, Reich, Glass,
             uh... Gavin Bryars....  BUT
         start off with Erik Satie. You can get decent
         budget priced Naxos versions of his complete piano
         works at most big chain stores. Challenging, lovely
         stuff - and a big influence on people like Eno
         who in turn has influenced people like D. May, who
         in turn is one of the reasons for this list (wanna
         keep topics in 313-land, ya know).  ; )

       Satie's influence is *all over* contemporary electronics based
          music.

       peace,

       Jorge
