The Avalanches

Not to forget the DJ Koze remix of Elementary Lover - Not really a Avalanchesy vibe, but more a job application to be a member of the Avalanches.

yay

aussie democracy

yah dont know how excited to get tho, they had a message on their facebook back in january saying exactly the same thing

they don't look like they're in a rush to do anything

this will have to sound exactly the same or completely different

altho now i just saw somewhere that there's some rumour the new album will be coming out on 08/08/08??? apparently www.letitsnow080808.com was registered by one of the avalanches dudes + that's how the rumour started...

Don't know about anywhere else, but I had no idea that Since I Left You had been deleted in the UK. Doesn't bode well for the album coming out here next week at any rate.

Sorry, we couldn't find http://www.letitsnow080808.com/. Here are some related websites: :(

OK Ray of Zdarlight is one of the best songs i've heard this year

It's a party record as well as a sonic treasure chest, and its strict sampling aesthetic is leavened by the overwhelming presence of great toonz. There's something quite heartening about a record that can cross so many boundaries like that. Maybe it's the Dubya of pop?

so weird i was just looking at their website today for an update but yeah, deej otm. not sure if tim f is otm here cuz i'm not quite sure what he's saying.

He tends to be otm.

God I miss The Avalanches.

Air France has been a nice hold me over.

I do wish people wouldn't revive Avalanches threads without cast-iron proof of a new album.

Oops.

Soz.

Can't someone get in touch with them?

Ha ha, even though I was referencing his rhetoric (at the time) rather than his performance, my jokey Dubya comparison still looks bizarre now.

So has anyone else heard that the album's supposedly coming out in July, as was announced on JJJ recently?

I'd like to believe it but July's not that far away and surely we'd have heard something official by now if it was coming out. Unless it's going to be one of those super fast releases (oh, the irony) a la Radiohead and The Raconteurs

Maybe the next album is just a special edition of Since I Left You.

surely we'd have heard something official by now if it was coming out

the label announced in December it was finished and turned in, is that not official enough?

My Sp@c3 page says that they're putting the finishing touches on to album 2...

I think that's been there for two years

I think that's been there for two years

It has, but in November it was changed to "putting the finishing finishing touches on album 2"

Every time this thred is revived I get a pang of hope :\

new Avalanches will probably be like a dissapoint like Shadow's Private Press. (which, after the Outsider, turned out to be pretty decent after all)

i'd like it to sound like 'My Girls' (but with singing more like Linda Lewis/Debbie Newman), Mike Westbrook's 'Song Of Spring' and Aeroplane remixed by cats and the ghost of Dilla

lol

xpost, have you heard of Bullion??

Also, came to post that their myspace status now says "The Avalanches ...are clearing samples."

Hmm. Good sign, I suppose. But that could take ages tho, right?

yeah + what if they can't get clearance for 10% of the samples (which is like 1000 samples in their case) they will need 5 years to find similar clearables ones. :/ ;)

wtf at them just clearing samples now

^^^just out clearin samples

clearing samples is for suckas

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

xpost, infos?

http://extramusicnew.blogspot.com/2009/06/avalanches-after-goldrush.html

This set looks OLD.

See here:
http://www.geocities.com/CaptainBullant/mixes.html

"At Home 7-11-01"

GREAT mix though.

they've got a couple newer mixes on their site, don't they?

sorry everybody :(

It's a good fyi anyway. Anyone who hasn't heard that mix should enjoy it right away!

no, telling people an eight-year-old set that you could probably still download on BiS until last week came out on a bootleg CD a year ago is not very good ify. SB him Granny Dainger!
