Australian artist Pogo is an inventive musician known for sampling the audio and video from a single film to create new pieces of music. He composed Upular "using chords, bass notes and vocal samples from the Disney Pixar film Up." See more of his videos on his YouTube channel or stream his tracks from his MySpace page. Albums can be downloaded at Last.fm. I've been listening to them all night.

I couldn't imagine a more joyful or inventive way to ring in the new year than the above video. Up was definitely one of my favorite films of 2009. Happy 2010 everyone! May your decade be filled with glorious adventures!
