Ikue Mori, Zeena Parkins, Eliane Radigue, Diamanda Galas, Sainkho Namtchylak, Carla Kihlstedt, Joelle Leandre, Dagmar Krause, Tyva Kyzy, Evelyn Glennie, Lotte Anker, Junko, Sidsel Endresen, Josephine Foster, Miya Masaoka, Lindsay Cooper, Sylvie Courvoisier, Mary Halvorson...

Not all top 40 material, but some contenders...
