  • Description

    Norwegian trumpeter and sonic architect Nils Petter Molvaer presents 'KHMER Live in Bergen' - a charged reinvention of his era-defining 1997 ECM release 'KHMER' - recorded in concert in 2023. Fused with live trip-hop beats, ambient haze and Nordic lyricism, 'KHMER Live in Bergen' amplifies a new energy with deeper grooves, sharper edges and greater dynamic intensity, pushing the music into a rawer, driven by experience, control and creative vision.

    Performed with a newly expanded band and released on Edition Records, 'KHMER Live in Bergen' captures the volatile electricity of Molvaer's live sound - fluid, restless and saturated with feeling. 'KHMER Live in Bergen' is a testament to Nils Petter Molvaer's continued growth, experimentation and desire to challenge himself. The album is a powerful reminder that his sound remains vital, forceful and fully alive - constantly evolving with greater clarity, depth and intent.

    Available on CD and 2LP marbled purple coloured vinyl.

    Nils Petter Molvaer: trumpet
    Eivind Aarset: guitar and electronics
    Jan Bang: live sampling
    Pal "Strangefruit" Nyhus: dj, mpc programming
    Audun Erlien: bass
    Per Lindvall: drums
    Rune Arnesen: drums, percussion
