"Solid Ether" continues the work begun on the highly-popular "Khmer". The Norwegian trumpeter's
liquid sound floats weightlessly in ambient electronic aether, or vaults over thunderous
beats, rock-derived guitar and the noises of DJ Strangefruit's spun turntables.
Singer Sidsel Endresen guests on two acoustic cuts that offer a moment's respite from
the heavy, heady grooves.
