Hypnotic, liquid grooves built entirely from the syllables and sounds of classic films. A nostalgic, kaleidoscopic reimagining of childhood cinema through a chillout lens.

Intro

Pogo is the stage name of Australian electronic musician Christopher Nicholas Bertke. Born in South Africa, he specializes in plunderphonics and trip hop, creating compositions by meticulously sequencing sampled audio from films and television. Influenced by Akufen, his unique process often relies exclusively on these repurposed fragments to build entirely new melodies. The artist is recognized by a rabbit icon, reflecting his distinctive approach to sound collage and sonic reconstruction.
