Fly On The Wall episodes

  • Nils Petter Molvaer - Tabla Beat Science, Bill Laswell and of course his brilliant solo work.
    Nils Petter Molvær also known as NPM Is a Norwegian jazz trumpeter, composer, and record producer.

    He is considered a pioneer of future jazz, a genre that fuses jazz and electronic music, best showcased on his most commercially successful album, Khmer.

    Molvær's muted trumpet sound, sometimes electronically processed, had an obvious debt to Miles Davis's work of the 1970s and 1980s, but without being a slavish copy.
    He has also produced film and theater music.
    He often works with guitarist Eivind Aarset. He has also played with Tabla Beat Science, created by Zakir Hussain and Bill Laswell.

Their musical partnership continued on the next two albums, the rock opera S.F. Sorrow (1968) and its follow-up Parachute (1970), the latter being entirely written by May and Waller.[1][3]Wally Waller left the Pretty Things in 1971 to take up a job as producer for EMI at the invitation of Norman Smith.
