He's a clarinetist by trade

William Basinksi is probably the coolest experimental composer ever. Not that there's terribly stiff competition for that title.

I'll explain the concept behind his Disintegration Loops later, but needless to say it is the most creative thing I have ever heard. Also, I took a bit of a nap whilst listening to a few of his Loops, and I swear it entered my body, slowed my heart rate to well below a healthy bpm, and took me on an intergalactic journey.

It is the music that planets would make had they the tools to do so.
