The Incredible Polo is a French beatbox artist - a video of whom you can check out here:



He starts off with a single beat and progressively adds layers over the top, developing a rich sound with little breaks and vocal interludes.

Never heard of him? Not a beatboxing fan? Before you click away from this post you MUST check out this sweet little program he’s developed called Incredibox (www.incredibox.com) and it will feed your procrastination for the next few hours. Ready? Let’s go.

Start with a beat, pull in an effect, add an instrument or another beat and build your own little beat. Add the vocals and you have a song. Drop the beats to feature the vocals, the options are endless. It also has little pre-programmed interludes (the coloured symbols that glow on the bottom right when they become available). If you want, you can even hit shuffle and the program will continues adding and removing layers - instant never ending song.

Feel you’re one of those people who can never decide what to play? I think we just sorted out that problem...
