Biography: Pogo

Posted on 15. Jan, 2010 by nanorecadmin in Blog

Pogo (Jamie Patterson) was originally inspired by tribal trance and early psychedelia. He started DJing in the mid nineties, and organised one of London’s first weekly psy-trance clubs ‘A Grain Of Sand’. He began to organise summer parties in the beautiful English countryside, and in 2000 the Wingmakers organisation was formed, launching the first of many legendary solstice parties.
In 2001 Pogo emerged from the underground and released two compilations on Dragonfly Records (‘Beaches & Cream’ & ‘Wingmakers’). These included his first collaborations, with various producers including Protoculture, Tristan, Youth, Dickster & Laughing Buddha.
He continues to organise Wingmakers parties, while also performing DJ and live sets around the U.K., Europe, Japan, India, and South Africa.
Over the last two years Pogo has been studying sound engineering and has thrown himself whole-heartedly into studio production. This has resulted in his first proper album: ‘Wingmakers – Beyondwards & Upwards’ due for release on Nano in february. This includes solo tracks and collaborations with Prometheus, Tristan, Laughing Buddha, Dickster, Aphid Moon, Lucas, and more…
Pogo is delighted to join the Nano family, bringing his own unique brand of psychoactive future funk to the table.
