The Avalanches - tba

I caught this too! Nice little summery track, definitely reminds me more of their first album.

this one is much better. maybe I should check out their first album if it's more like this, I only know their two famous singles.

MAYBE? definitely check out their first album, and make sure it's the promo version becaus the US version is missing tons of important samples that make a lot of the songs, imo...

for convenience's sake, i present to you a link...

holy shit i'd read of this version but never had a chance to listen to it until now

even the original is still impressive imo caze, it's a magun opus of plunderphonics and dense sampling, up there with golden age hip-hop classics, 2 many dj's mix "as heard on radio soulwax," negativeland, Double Dee and Steinski, etc. though in particular this one was a precursor to a lot of chillwave and beat scene stuff like panda bear, washed out, monster rally, etc.

is that version available to DL somewhere?

I'm ashamed to say that this is my first time listening to or even knowing about this version of the album.

disclaimer I live in the US

that link is down, but found it elsewhere. the first track is already better than the single version (which I liked to begin with), so we're off to a good start.

there's nothing about this track that really hooks me

frankie sinatra = poop

folkstar = decent

colours = YES!

got a bit more faith in wildflower now, might even pre-order?

Official youtube link for those interested and if the other isn't working:

'Colours' sounds great, but 'Frankie Sinatra' is utter shite.

I pre-ordered the limited edition vinyl from newberry comics....I wish there was a version that didn't include Frankie Sinatra, it's just a brutal track. In a bad way.

Looking forward to the rest of the record, however! Colors is really nice.

hrm... i guess i don't get it. 'colors' sounds pretty awful to mine ears
