The North Pole by Submarine is the only album released by ambient techno artist Bleep.

[3] Bleep was the one-time moniker of Geir Jenssen, who is more widely known as Biosphere.

The album was released on SSR Records (sub-label of Crammed Discs) and Tokuma Japan Communications music labels.

In his book Ocean of Sound (1995), David Toop described The North Pole by Submarine as "a promising Belgian New Beat/acid album" and noted how some of the record is sampled from radio transmissions.

[1] In a retrospective review, John Bush of AllMusic wrote how the "pre-Biosphere album" contains "few ambient tones", instead focusing on "heavy house/pop rhythms and acid effects" to create music aimed exclusively at dancefloors.
