4peepeepo (sometimes stylized as P.P.Po or Pee Pee Po) is a music project mainly consisting of Cooper Jones and Josh Crawford of Murfreesboro, Tennessee.

6According to [[https://web.archive.org/web/20170731073624/https://weirdestbandintheworld.com/2013/08/07/weird-band-of-the-week-pee-pee-po/ an article]] by a now-defunct blog known as The Weirdest Band in the World, they have been active since 2006. When they first started, they originally set out to be a "serious" band, but all they had was a microphone and a Casio MIDI keyboard which they didn't really know how to use at the time. All they could really do was "make really fucked-up drums and strings sounds with it" which they found so humorous that they decided to make music like that all the time. And thus, peepeepo was born.

8Much of their music consists of simple, almost childish melodies with equally simple-sounding, almost {{chiptune}}-like timbres (presumably from the aforementioned Casio keyboard) with beats usually provided by a drum machine that uses electronic drum sounds on some songs and realistic ones on others. Sometimes, an electronic kit is used and other times the drums are provided by messing around with the keyboard. The latter method can create some hilariously intense beats and fills that would be impossible to play on a real kit.

10Other hallmarks of peepeepo songs include tempo changes that usually take the form of gradually going up to speedcore or even close to extratone levels before going back down to much lower levels after a while as well as random, sometimes indecipherable conversations laced with rude bodily noises throughout that turn into high-pitched screams and shouts (all of which are often vocoded and/or pitch bent).

12When they're not making music as peepeepo, the duo is known as Omahamaho. That is the name of their [[https://www.youtube.com/user/Omahamaho YouTube channel]], the location of the band according to their [[https://soundcloud.com/peepeepo SoundCloud]], and the record company they're signed to according to the back album art of their first album, ''Captain Guantanamo Garuqueavich.''

14Speaking of their Website/YouTube channel, it is where you'll find a vast majority of the duo's content. Not only do they have uploads of several of their full albums (see links below) in addition to many individual songs, but also a ton of other videos, including [[RogerRabbitEffect live-action/animated]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8TfJY4XqCk skits]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrenxHYT6e8 livestreams]], and gameplay footage of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cn6OnJ1so9E PS1]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QH4qULlgjAc N64]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EumOJPfsUE older PC games]].
