    now playing: since I left you - the avalanches

    any one else digging this, a major, major release... sample heaven, (from
    debby reynolds, to madonna, the osmonds,kid eole, kraftwerk...) big fat
    beats (check out the opening to Electricity). Like dj shadow grew up in a
    melbourne disco... I can't recommend it enough. Apparently everything is
    sampled, there are layers upon layers of stuff happening, all encrusted with
    vinyl crackles and lo-fi atmospherics. Theres hip hop turntablism, funky
    stuff, disco strings... check it out. Here is a review which says it much
    better than I can:

    I don't think I've been this excited about something since shadow's
    endtroducing...
