apart from some already on the list, those are the best, most professional and nice guys I met: Michael Schiefel http://schiefel.de of all the loopers I have ever met he went clearly the furthest with using most different features for most elaborated compositions and his voice is precise and flexible as few voices I have heard, and yes, he is fun, too! - and touring through the world... giving workshops with looping... Mich Gerber http://www.michgerber.ch Swiss upright bass player who toured Europe for many years with his trio/quartet which is completely based on his bass loops (including very high pitched bowing and rhythmic taping) Linsey Pollak http://www.linseypollak.com Australian, touring the world (yes, down to Brasil!) with his strange wind instruments. He even loops the noise of a little stick moving over his last few hairs on the head top :-) and its fun and groovy! Laurence Revey http://www.laurencerevey.com Chanteuse speaking some rare old french like language, beautiful loop choirs... Stefan Keller http://www.flutetrends.ch/ the orchestra out of all sizes of flutes, very percussive!
