Comment: behind Pogohm is a French musician Arnaud Barbe who is better known and being more prolific behind a nom de plume, Pollux. He leads also an imprint, Sirona-Records, and the recent 5-notch outing is also a part of it. If someone asks for the point of Pogohm and difference between the two aliases then the first thread one can hear coming out of Raptor Jesus is an appealing VHS quality embracing all the sound. A second characteristic is a cheesy rhythmic sound being something between Eurobeat, and German trance. Given that Arnaud Barbe's profound experiments with ambient and electronic music as Pollux one may see it as a Barbe's guilty pleasure or seedy self-indulgence, however, despite its simplistic rhythms it chimes in an alien way coming close to Vaporwave sound. In a word, it is an enjoyable experience full of bittersweet nostalgia and passed times. Nice shit making your day.
