It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Re: Contemporary Classical compositions

Besides the usual suspects already mentioned, particularly Elliot Carter, Cage, etc., you might want to investigate Wolfgang Rihm, especially his string quartets (recorded by Arditti String Quartet and the Minguett Quartet) and also his other string trio and solo piano music. Two other composers I find very interesting are Olga Neuwirth and Beat Furrer. I am envious of the experience you may have exploring these and other contemporary composers. Good listening. (By the way, I keep listening to Cage's Ryoanji, over and over again, in all of its recorded manifestations. Fabulous!)
