How      about   .    .    .

               LaMonte Young, Harold Budd, David Hykes/Harmonic Choir, 
           Ingram Marshall (sometimes), and Brian Eno
                for what I shall call
                    " d r o n e" or "o v e r t o n e" music

   Daniel Lentz, John Adams (the stuff c.1975-86), Carl Stone perhaps
                for more of the "pattern pulse" Reich-ian stuff

             Paul Dresher, Chas Smith, Laurie Anderson, David Byrne
for "cross-over" to/from popular genres

                      that's off the top of my head right now
