I mean a lot of the things I’ve read about Stockhausen were written by people who wouldn’t know who he is if it weren’t for Can. Like in NME and Melody Maker way back the names Stockhausen and Can floated around together a lot. It’s good that he got that extra exposure but it also means that if you’re reading about Stockhausen it’s less likely to be really on point than say Ussachevsky, for example. My theory is this may have gotten into your subconscious.
