Memories of the Sky | Bipolar Explorer (2024)


"Pronounced 'holy sonic icons' by legendary BBC 3/Soho Radio broadcaster Max Reinhardt, their work described by France’s Les Oreilles Curieuses as 'celestial and spell-bounding compositions alternating between spoken word and emotional flights of lyricism, astounding us with beauty - brilliant, luminous and cathartic', Bipolar Explorer are an NYC-based experimental dreampop trio consisting of Summer Serafin (vocals, spoken word), Michael Serafin-Wells (guitars, vocals, baritone guitar, bowed guitar, bass, Moog synth, organ, melodica, tape loops, spoken word and percussion) and Sylvia Solanas (spoken word French/English, backing vocals). On December 1, 2024, the band will release its 12th album, Memories of the Sky, on independent NYC label Slugg Records. Taking its inspiration from Louis Janmot’s epic series of paintings, 'Le Poème de l’âme', Memories of the Sky is a double-album, 22 tracks over two hours, conceived as a continuum and titled individually - Disc One: 'The Clouds Darken'; Disc Two: 'A Winter Light' - as a kind of celestial navigation of the journey. ..."
