people arguing Michael Jackson is an innovator...is he? what did he innovate? remember things like dancing ability (he definitely didn't invent the moonwalk btw), songwriting skills, cultural mass appeal, record sales, and having a really great team of image stylists does not constitute 'innovation'... you could be in the top tier worldwide at all those things and still not be an innovator
We all know about Michael Jackson and his career and rating status, but Michael built his music around his bass line, in the same way so does Prince and Peter Gabriel for example, and I've always admired artist that build around the bass line of the song.

^I agree with you Sequoioideae, John Cage was - just like Stockhausen - laid the groundwork for the modern (electronic) music.
Although not many of you may know him, I'd like to add Hans-Martin Linde because he's an influencial recorder-virtuoso and composer of the 20th century.

Since we're living in a globalized world and in the society of pluralism it's hard to decide on the most innovative artists; just because there are so many musical genres.
I'm pretty sure though that the Beatles were simply as important as Michael Jackson for the pop-scene. That is just one genre out of estimated 1000 musical genres in the world.

For example, Linde's compositions "Neuzeitliche Übungsstücke" are standard pieces for modern recorder.
I'll have to play one out of that for my entrance exam.

Also the composition music for a bird for example is important.
The notation and technique is completely new and so it's a new way of playing and performing.
There are pieces where one artist has to play two recorders at the same time. Not as easy as it seems to be!

i love it when you guys talk about the Beatles

the Beatles completely ripped of their harmony style from The Everly Brothers....not saying i don't like the Beatles...actually i love them....but give credit where credit is due

after much thought and having only one choice.....for me it would have to be....

Says it all really, Invents techno in the mid 60s & causally dismisses it.
What a woman.
