Solid Ether is an album by Norwegian trumpeter, composer and producer Nils Petter Molvær, recorded in 1999 and released on ECM May the following year.[1]
On All About Jazz, Chris M. Slawecki called it "a stunning meltdown of classic jazz trumpet styles with modern techno, drum-and-bass and electronic music."[2]
The AllMusic review by David R. Adler stated "Not everyone will "get" this kind of music, and die-hard jazzers might laugh it off as an inconsequential fad. But it's actually a seismic innovation that is just getting started."[3]
Robert Christgau gave the album an A, noting, "He immerses in chaos and comes out beautiful."[4]
