Experimental musician based in Chicago Kevin Drumm (born 1970) is one of the world's pre-eminent prepared guitar players. Since his emergence in the experimental music scene in the 1990s, he has perpetually shaken up conventions of various sub-genres with his major albums, for example, shifting from the tabletop/prepared guitar with his first self-titled album, to noise with Sheer Hell Miasma, to ambient/drone with Imperial Distortion. Drumm has collaborated with many international artists from various musical scenes, from improvised and electroacoustic music to free jazz, noise and industrial music: Taku Sugimoto,
