I would say that Free Jazz and the 12 Tone serliasts are still out on the frontiers of popular taste. Anything else in music that hasn't charmed the bourgeoisie and been used to sell some product or another?


Erm, what is 12 Tone Serialists, though?


Berg Schoenberg and Webern basically though jazzers dabbled as did a lot of post war composers. You'd know the sound from a zillion European art house movie soundtracks of the late 60s. Sounds discombobulated, profoundly sad and never really resolved / at rest.
