I think Zappa was mostly influenced by Varese. I can't see much Satie in his work. However, Satie's music and ideas had a big impact on John Cage, who in turn was obviously a very influential figure in experimental music.

- Rendello 1y agoAphex Twin's Avril 14th [1] reminds me a bit of Satie. A bunch of songs in the same album, Drukqs, use John Cage's prepared piano technique [2]. A lot of Aphex Twin's music is ambient like Satie's, but I prefer his more in-your-face stuff. 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxTdTaNIUxo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxTdTaNIUxo 2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bc2HCxUQ12s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bc2HCxUQ12s
