“The past isn’t dead. It isn’t even past,” observed William Faulkner – and how true this is of ECM’s back catalogue, an edition of music which remains thoroughly contemporary. This time sees the vinyl release of five best selling titles from the 1990s and early 2000s, that were previously only available on CD and through the digital domain.
Khmer
Nils Petter Molvaer
Massive beats and throbbing grooves underpin the Norwegian trumpeter's fiery solos in a project that forms a bridge between ECM's improvised soundscapes and the brave new world of trip-hop, drum'n'bass, ambient/illbient, techno, industrial, electronica and samples. Nils Petter Molvær may be best known for his jazz work - with most of the leading Scandinavian players and with Elvin Jones, Gary Peacock, and George Russell - but he also has vast experience as a rock sessioneer. Khmer brings jazz's freedom and pop/rock's sound potential together.
Initially published on CD in October 1997, vinyl is issued in June 2019.
