Tune In Saturdays: Pomplamoose
One of my favorite recent finds is the fantastically interesting duo called Pomplamoose. A collaboration of a couple YouTubers, Jack Conte and Nataly Dawn, Pomplamoose doesn't really just make songs or just make videos, and it's not even really music videos either. They are videosongs, which are videos created within two rules, what you see is what you hear and if you hear it, at some point you see it. Anyway, check these out. Absolutely incredible stuff.
I'd also check out some of Jack's personal stuff as well. He's made a couple swings through the YouTube front page, particularly with the very cool Radiohead/Chopin mashup below as well as with the more traditional (but still badass) video for the original song Yeah, Yeah, Yeah below that.
YouTube.Jack's MySpace. Nataly's MySpace.












I stumbled across the first video the other day. I absolutely love her voice. It's a folksy, yet different style. One friend said it's 'sweet and sour', which is interesting since Pomplamoose means Grapefruit en Francais.
