Evan Parker is the SSSSHHHHHH.....

EVAN PARKER
is a UK born avant garde saxophonist that DESTROYS his instrument, having been active in his field for the past 40 years I'm pretty sure he's always as mad as he looks in this picture. He's British. Check out his album below and vid and then go hint down more stuff by him and people he plays with.
It's also worth noting that the sounds he's making are done simply with his breath and fingers. No software or anything to plug into the wall. Brilliant! You might consider him an organic noise artist. Or not. But it is noisy.
