This Spring the Season 2 of the Showtime TV series This American Life will feature four Bexar Bexar tracks.  If you missed Season 1, featuring 10 Bexar Bexar tracks, 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.  Additionally, the new film The Recruiter by Edet Belzberg (director of Children Underground), will feature one Bexar track.

"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"

"It's Bexar's skill in treading the line between the evocative and the universal that makes Tropism seem more engaging than 37 minutes of aparent tranquility should: less a still life than a blank canvas for the mind."

"...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."

"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."
