   About bexar bexar
News

This Spring the Season 2 of the Showtime TV series This American Life will feature two Bexar Bexar tracks.  If you missed Season 1,  featuring 10 Bexar Bexar compositions, you can now purchase it on DVD or download individual episodes.  Later this year the documentary film Think Big, directed by Tally Abecassis, will be released, featuring a soundtrack by Bexar Bexar.  A review of the most recent release Tropism in Wire magazine can be found here.

Press

"Many of the songs have this feeling that's hard to describe but so satisfying to hear: like a sadness that's been buried, and you're soldiering quietly on, and not making a show of it. The spare, lovely melodies swell and recede, all with perfect precision and tremendous understated feeling. How this music can be so emotional without ever getting sentimental or corny is completely beyond me"  – Ira Glass, This American Life

"...Equal parts Eno, Mum and Mogwai. His songs construct equally barren landscapes: "Aidos" burbles up from nothing and swells into a circle of warm, chiming guitars, evoking what it must be like to float on your back in the Gulf of Mexico without another soul for miles; the waterlogged, percolating synths of "Kt" approximate the best beatless moments of Boards Of Canada, or at least an instrumental B-side from Kid A. Bexar Bexar often contributes music to dress the scenes on NPR's "This American Life," and it's easy to see why. Haralambos makes perfect background music for quiet, reflective moments: reading a book, lying in the dark, imagining you're the last person on earth." CMJ

"whether feelings generated from the songs are akin to the stark melancholy of looking upon a freshly fallen snow or the hopeful joy of waking to a fresh autumn day, this is one hell of a great album."  – All Music Guide

"A sadness pervades much of the material (“The Messy Message,” “Sweet Devil”), lending it an affecting gravitas, while shimmering settings like “Window Piece” and “Unsettled and Unstable” are about as lovely and tranquil as pastoral ambient music gets.” – Textura

Your music moved us in a way that we'll never forget. Your creations are beautiful and it was kind of you to talk to us for a bit after the show. Hopefully we'll run into you during SXSW.
