The Avalanches

They played live last Friday??

No, they DJed.

In the meantime, fill the wait for the second album with a deluxe 10th-anniversary re-release of the first album, with a bonus disc featuring "new reworks from the likes of El Guincho, MF Doom, Canyons, Black Dice, Jackson and his Computer Band." Information regarding super-deluxe package versions and the release date will be released on Facebook, sometime.

They've lost the master for this Stereolab remix of Since I Left You, so someone in the office has ripped it from vinyl for Soundcloud: http://soundcloud.com/modularpeople/the-avalanches-since-i-left-you-stereolab-remix

ha

i mean i know the underlying issues are not funny but still, ha

^ if ever there was a time for scare quotes

I hate this thread

BTW, note that with no release date yet set, the "deluxe 10th-anniversary re-release" is likely to come out more than 11 years after the initial release - at time of announcement, it's already 8 months late.

Hey, Jackson and his Computer Band. There's another guy who dropped off the face of the earth

i believe he made some kind of Jamie Liddell-ish album a year or 2 back. maybe last year, even.

Really? I can't find any evidence of this online

hmm googling myself now, and it seems i just made that up, i must have gotten him mixed up with some other idm cat who started singing. :)

That boy needs therapy lol

hah I used to eagerly wait for a new Jackson album to drop but I think i've made my peace with the fact that it won't come out. I think he's done a ocuple of remixes in the last few years?

Is that an Onion article.

It does exist! Kind of an odd choice of rapper but i'm cool with it

i heard that they accidentally deleted all the album files

listened to Cool Gays, the bit at the end sounds like a remix of a bit of SILY, zomg new track zzz

there's some new song (demo) out there featuring David Berman reading a poem, but it's pretty half ass. the music underneath is barely audible.

:/
i am becoming despondent.

new david berman poem (ie 'like plastic Easter basket grass, falling from an overpass') >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> fully audible avalanches music

Well! *tap tap tap* You've lost your cover now.

Them and Dre, in a race to do...something.

*sigh*

don't tell me Them have re-united as well??

Cautious optimism stirring...

Some time in the next 126,436 years then.

I'm not rereading all of this but have we talked about the Zomba pre-release promo that has even more extra bonus samples that had to be removed bcz of clearance issues (like Rogers & Hammerstein ones and stuff)? Bcz it is SO GOOD

Also apparently the OG Modular AUS release has more samples than any other re-release either in Aus or any other country (incl US)

It has a song that wound up on the b-side of Frontier Psychiatrist re-sequenced into the album towards the beginning. It's on what.cd and it's fucking awesome n shit

xxp you mean gimix, the one with girls just wanna have fun on it?

No, it's def not that

it's this one http://www.discogs.com/Avalanches-The-Album/release/2068568

i havent heard that! awesome, will check out

I have, bought it pre-release day on a visit to Melbourne

Well of course you have

<3

stevie otm

hm yeah never knew this existed

can i be a jerk and ask for a webmail is that cool

Yes! I will web mail it freely!

ty!

yeah the original version of the album was pretty different, it was the one i heard first back in the day. Radio for example begins with a little sample of a drunk girl and a guy arguing "I'm watching television" "but that's the test pattern!" " get outta my way i like it" etc.

I've definitely heard that version of Radio, but I haven't heard the version of Since I Left You that has 'With My Baby' on it.

i'm sb'ing anyone who revives this thread w/o solid knowledge of a def release date.
