Holy crap "The Avalanches" rock.

[Waus]

I know I'm not the first person to discover them from this board...but I definitly didn't want to be the last. I just got their CD tonight, and it's glorious beyond glorious.

Totally Dust Brothers layering, Royksopp rhythms...samples galore. I have no idea how they made this album in 2000. Check them out HARD.

[Waus]

[The Notorious LOL]

love them :)

[The Notorious LOL]

I wish the track with the Raekwon sample was longer.

[Rancid_Beasties]

The Avalanches dont exist per se any more I think. That one album was brilliant, but after dexter left the rest of them just decided they would perform as djs. They are pretty average as djs too...

Better Aussie electronic/sampling/instrumental bands in the same vein:

Sonic Animation
Cut Copy
The Presets

Even Gerling is pretty decent.

[thegoodmrbrodie!]

that album is pretty much my favourite album i think. yes. and the one time i saw them live was pretty much my favourite gig. i think. and the several times that i saw them dj had pretty much the biggest impact on my style of djing. yes. i think.

[SobaViolence]

i have to make a flight tonight
