It's art. Perfect formulas are all a matter of personal taste.
Ever listen to Taj Majal Travelers? I've let several friends who are into modern drone/experimental stuff listen to them, and all have a hard time believing these guys began in '69. Not everyone was reliant on blues or strict structures/etc. Radical stuff has always existed. Most don't dig deep enough to find it, however, because newer stuff is often time much more accessible.
