Two drone composers. Both composers are microtonal minimalists. Riley uses synths, tape loops, indian music and non-orchestra instruments, sometimes scary. Young is drone, slow and thinking. (Riley, Young)

A very interesting yet simple island showing different approaches to making a long composition out of a single texture or pitch. Both composers are microtonal. Yet Scelsi works mainly for orchestra and Riley uses synths, tape loops, indian music and non-orchestra instruments. (Scelsi, Riley)
