A really nice surprise. Really nice collection of songs for a Saturday evening. It feels like they've just walked into my house and taken over the stereo which is a lovely feeling.

I love it too..it makes me jus wanna go get under the dooner and sleep for a week. That robert
wyatt track is amazing. Still astounds me all the mixtapes they have churned out over the years while being labelled seemingly 'slow' or ' lazy' or whatever. each one is 10x better than a girltalk album.

A lot of those mixes from pinchyandfriends.com are great. Such a nice thing to wake up to on a sunday morning.

There was other interesting stuff on the avalanches twitter last night. They basically said that the album is finished ready for mixing which will be done shortly (in the UK?).

There's a "Secret Information" page on the pinchyandfriends site which you can use to work out that there are actually two Avalanches mixes there:
1. "Sleepy Bedtime Mix For Young Ones by Henry Chinaski" is by Robbie Chater
2."Miracle Device by Lord Fitness" is by Darren Seltman

There is another Beach Boys? song before Mount Vernon and after Linda Perhacs too.
Also anyone pick up the sample from 'since i left you' in this mix :wink:

at roughly 10.30

Hmm… bit noodly for me, but will have a proper listen and see if there's any reason for hope… ;-)

That website is the most annoying thing in the world - anytime you have to navigate by scanning the source code…

I'm guessing the 'a,b,c…' ones are Cameron Bird's (Architecture in Helsinki)…? Anyone road-tested them yet and want to recommend them? I love AiH.

Cheers,
Simon

Yeah, that's The Beach Boys - I Went To Sleep

There's also a cover of "Harlem Nocturne" between "Michele" and "Mia Farrow - Lullaby (Rosemary's Baby Theme)" and ??? - ??? between "My Funny Valentine" and "At Last I Am Free".

Lovely mixtape =)

The song right before "Kites Are Fun" is "Oba Oba" by Luiz Bonfa.

It's also sampled in "Two Hearts in 3/4 Time" from SILY.

Where did you get that information from? I hope they are not just teasing us saying it is COMING SOON, and then they never release it. I have been hanging out for that Splendour mix for ages. I would love to hear it even if it was screwy.

The videos from Splendour on their youtube account are amazing, considering joining twitter just to ask them directly.

s.a.l. · Posted: Wed May 16, 2012 8:44 pm

I'm pretty sure it was on here that someone posted that.

was about 6 years ago now. was a pretty bloody fun set to watch. One of my mates lost it to bon jovi in a very hilarious way.

"Coming soon" in avalanches time is a meaningless statement anyhow!

Hope it does emerge from somewhere, but I'm doubtful
