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.

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...
― t_g, Friday, 1 August 2008 10:51 (fifteen years ago) link
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.

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?
― s1ocki, Tuesday, 7 October 2008 21:17 (fifteen years ago) link
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.
― t_g, Tuesday, 7 October 2008 21:38 (fifteen years ago) link
He tends to be otm.

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?
― Matthew H, Wednesday, 8 October 2008 10:34 (fifteen years ago) link
Ha ha, even though I was referencing his rhetoric (at the time) rather than his performance, my jokey Dubya comparison still looks bizarre now.
― Tim F, Wednesday, 8 October 2008 11:10 (fifteen years ago) link
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
― groovypanda, Wednesday, 18 March 2009 22:00 (fifteen years ago) link
Maybe the next album is just a special edition of Since I Left You.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 18 March 2009 22:15 (fifteen years ago) link
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...

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

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)
― Ludo, Thursday, 19 March 2009 15:27 (fifteen years ago) link
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

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?
― homage is parody gone sour (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Tuesday, 5 May 2009 19:05 (fifteen years ago) link
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. :/ ;)
― Ludo, Tuesday, 5 May 2009 19:18 (fifteen years ago) link
wtf at them just clearing samples now

It's a good fyi anyway. Anyone who hasn't heard that mix should enjoy it right away!
― Spencer Chow, Tuesday, 23 June 2009 20:55 (fifteen years ago) link
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!
