Two folks whose records you might enjoy are Phil Minton and Jaap Blonk. 
Minton's "A Doughnut in Both Hands" CD on FMP is spectacular solo voice 
improvisation, all recorded live with one mic... the music barely resembles 
human voice at all! He has led an a capella improvising trio (or maybe a 
quartet? I can't remember) that involved all extended techniques. The group 
did a CD, also on FMP... sorry, I can't recall any more info than that.

Jaap Blonk's "Flux-de-Bouche" CD on Staalplaat is also a solo voice 
recording using non-traditional singing techniques, but he does some sound 
poetry (by Rudolf Blumner, Hugo Ball, Robert Wilson) as well a original 
compositions. His newer CD, "Avers$huw", contains computer and voice 
improvisations and is a different animal entirely, but I like it a lot.

Jarrod Fowler mentioned Liz Tonne, from the BSC... to my knowledge, she 
hasn't done any solo voice recordings (yet), though she has just done a duo 
10" on Sedimental with Boston-based reeds player Dave Gross. On other 
recordings, she's mostly an ensemble player, blending her contributions in 
with a group sound.
