What are some of the greatest minds in music /mu/?
i.e. essential artists that everyone who is serious about music should listen to at one point in their lives.
>Eno was described by some friends and colleagues as racist. His close friend Danny Fields, the American journalist who helped him sign to Elektra Records, described him as "Nazi-esque", saying: "Every once in a while there'd be something about Jews and I'd be, 'But Eno, I'm Jewish,' and he was like 'Yes, yes, I don't mean you.' He had a definite Nordic Aryan streak, [the belief] that he was physically, spiritually and creatively superior." According to Fields, Brian Eno once attacked a mixed-race woman in a restaurant with a smashed wineglass, saying "I hate black people". During a performance in Berlin, the audience rioted after Eno performed the German national anthem "Deutschlandied", including a verse omitted since 1945 for its nationalist associations.

Outside of the shithole that is mu, John Cage is highly influential to music and absolutely a figure worth studying. Don't let dumb memes ruin a brilliant man for you
Honestly you gotta get into classical senpai. You will still like most of what you like now, and it really is great music if you get into it.
