Dear Mr. Bertke,
I will one day collaborate with you. You truly are a very gifted producer as am i.
You’re achieving my near future.
Our passions for film and music alike are quite the same.
The way we see and interpret the world as well as moral values are almost identical.
It’s as if i have a twin on the other side of the world. It encourages me.
You are the inspiration i wish to be to others.
We will meet.
signed,
- Enfinite
P.S.
the only obstacle i face now is my indefinite foul luck with computers.

I think the song is too much for a first time submittal. Car commercials usually like something that is easy listening or something that you can sing along to.

Dear Pogo, I find this and all of your work quite remarkable. Obviously Honda needs to revamp their marketing Dept. I first discovered your music while downloading tracks from Last FM. I sent my brother “Go out and Love Someone” In turn he sent me an E-MAIL with an attachment of the video”Gardyn” My brother is an awesome musician and he just loves your stuff. So does everyone at work where my mp3 player is constantly playing through our stereo. I get a kick out of watching the reaction of my family, friends and co-workers when they first hear your music. My heart-felt thanks Bro’…. keep those creative juices flowing. There is a huge wave of fans here in Victoria BC, Canada.

[...] He was also been commissioned to do one a track for Disney film Up, and even a TV/Cinema commercial for Honda (which unfortunately never came to fruition). [...]

I bet their legal team decided against it because its got pieces of audio of ‘dont stop’ throughout the song. Add that with a car advert, and you can potentially have a case if someone crashes or whatever and decides to pin the blame on you or something rediculous like that…. only real reason why I’d think they wouldnt use it.
Dont get me wrong, its a brilliant track, but maybe a better vocal clip would be more suitable next time hey hehe.

We should write to Honda telling them to Reconsider. its been a while since they planned to use it, but i honestly think they would benefit from it like crazy. Honda, I believe, have great and pioneering adverts, and so this great, pioneering music just makes sense to be used.

With me?

I wonder if this is the final ad, Honda went with: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKRR83_M91s

Original track is Atlas, by Battles “As far as I know this version of it was commissioned for the commercial alone and is not available.”

Honda is stupid! this song would be perfect for a car commercial.

And you know what? First time I saw the ad – I’m in the UK – my girlfriend said: ‘That’s Pogo isn’t it?’ I think somebody somewhere plagiarised your style. In any event, Honda made a poor decision ;-)
