Vangelis may not be to your liking as a film composer, but he single-handedly revolutionized electronic music and paved the way for all of the composers who are today classified as "New Age."

Also, I'm curious about what the people who find composers like Zimmer and Vangelis to be too simplistic think of the man who became most famous for musical minimalism, Philip Glass. Sometimes, less is more.
