[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]Pogo - “SplurgenShitter”
I first heard about Pogo when Tuneage posted his “Alice” video, and he’s been in constant rotation ever since. Most of Pogo’s music is made almost entirely out of pre-recorded samples from movies (to date, Pogo’s made songs out of Alice in Wonderland, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, and Mary Poppins, to name a few), and each song is as charming as it is good. “SplurgenShitter”, one of the few songs that isn’t built on samples from a single movie, mixes laid-back drum machines with ambient keyboard loops while sneaking in samples that never feel forced or out of place. This is exactly the kind of song I reach for on a Sunday afternoon in the summer.
You can download Pogo’s entire catalog for free from his Last.fm page, or if you’re more visual, the videos that accompany some of his songs are similarly well done.
Just listened. Lovely!
