In the three weeks since its release (on Summer's birthday), Deux Anges, Bipolar Explorer's 9th album, has received kind words and airplay from New York to California and across Europe from France to The Netherlands to the UK.
In heavy rotation on NorCal's KFJC, closer to home on WFMU, on Dutch post-rock radio innovators, DeMist, and over several different programs on London's great Resonance-FM, one of the radio highlights to date must certainly be having been featured on the legendary Max Reinhardt's show on London's Soho Radio.
Mr. Reinhardt, the venerable longtime host of BBC Radio 3's Late Junction, closed his December 4th show - a three hour look at the best releases of 2020 - with "Infinity Hall", from disc one of Deux Anges and going on to say, with a weighty pause, "and... Bipolar Explorer. Well... there is hauntology at work. Hauntology right in the center of their work".
Longtime fans of all of Max's radio work, this is, indeed, as Michael says on behalf of the band "pretty heady stuff".
Thank you, everyone.
