He uses unconvential instruments, such as synthetisators in classical music context.
In the program leafleft, in the presentation, I noticed this:

I listened to the first part of your first share here. Nice! Reminds of Satie. Certain tendencies remind me of what I was doing in the late '80s or '90. Jazz extensions but not jazz really.

He was really great composer - BTW, studied in the Julliard in the 50´s.
He had a long period of atonality and serialism in his music (example).
