Best year for minimal?

There were a ton of ibiza-anthem type minimal jams: Rej, Street Knowledge, Dump Truck, Seeing Through the Shadows, Tropical Melons, Darkness (Radio Slave Remix), Granada Granada, you name it...these tracks may not be up your alley, but they were much bigger successes than today's successes.

Since then, it's been pretty watered down. Thank you, Nick Curly.

AGREED!

If you are referring to Morton Subotnic, Edgar Varese, Pierre Boulez, and Phillip Glass... then you might actually be right! 1965 could very well be the best year of minimal. Certainly one of the earliest and most creative years if nothing else.
