Release Notes:
Avant-garde jazz trumpeter Nils Petter Molvµr was born on
the small Norwegian island of Sula in 1960, and though he
learned a lot playing in local bands, in 1979 he chose to
leave his hometown to study at the conservatory in
Trondheim. As a member of the nu jazz group Masqualero,
Molvµr became associated with the ECM label, which later
released his first solo material. In 1998, Khmer, which
incorporated ambient, house, and electronic sounds along
with his trumpet, came out, followed two years later by
Solid Ether, an album that also saw a remix version in
2001's Recoloured. In 2002 NP3 was released, and three
years later ER, in which he allowed more space for
programmers like DJ Strangefruit and Reidar Skσr, was
issued. In 2006 Thirsty Ear took the honors for Molvµr's
An American Compilation, a record that was meant to
introduce a United States audience to the experimental and
genre-bending musician.
