Poppongene is multidisciplinary Melbourne artist Sophie Treloar. Poppongene makes music for moods, ebbing and flowing down the river of figuring it all out. Poppongene’s music is drenched in the sun’s rays but still isn’t afraid to embrace all seasons. With this project, Treloar masters a glistening sound all her own - poppy and phosphorescent, furnished with catharsis. Poppongene captures the emotional tug of war within all of us. Whilst Treloar remains an optimist, she never shies from candidly expressing the challenges of love and realities of living on spaceship earth. Her simply-wrought pop is flecked with many influences: 70s organs, twanging guitar pop, artful synths and Spector soundscapes nestle up against contemporary influences Deerhunter, Aldous Harding & Sharon Van Etten. Poppongene’s long anticipated debut EP Futures Unsure was recorded with producer Tim Harvey (Jade Imagine, Emma Louise, Gena Rose Bruce, Lisa Mitchell). Poppongene and Tim Harvey quickly established a nurturing, creative and uncomplicated approach to recording Futures Unsure, and the EP’s dreamy and hypnotic textures are testament to this. Though tinged with brightness and pop, Futures Unsure ultimately captures the complexity and chaos of emerging red-eyed from a breakup.
