Is this the guy that made the album about poop or is that someone else?

>>131909166
He has cultural relevance with me. Love this jigga like you wouldn;t believe.

>why is one of the biggest spegs in avant-garde music not discussed by plastic pleb normies???
>>
>>131909166
He's extremely influential and has been written about and discussed in musical circles going back to the mid 80s.

OP, as always, is nothing but a big baiting faggot.

>>131909166
I wouldn't say he's irrelevant. My issue with him is that he kind of weaseled his way into relevance by starting a record label, establishing connections with genuinely important musicians, and being prolific in his musical output. His contributions to avant-garde music are middling at best, and he never did anything unique enough to be considered a true innovator.

His artistic path and legacy are extremely semitic.

He was already well estabilished and respected before Tzadik.

>well established
By what standards? He wasn't even on the level of guys like Derek Bailey or Anthony Braxton - and he never will be.
