I knew of them in their early days but I totally missed this release so it goes both ways! On the odd chance you haven't yet, make sure to check out the first album Since I Left You, their initial masterpiece.

Daft Punk are "sell-outs" compared to Avalanches and they've become really boring musically. Avalanches is like the electronic version of T00L

i like that comparison

One of the greatest Australian film clips in my opinion. Its still looks as original and fresh as anything around at the moment.

I love the “Relight My Fire” sample there. Best disco song EVER.

I say this as someone who loves the original "Talking to a Stranger" so much that I have it set to wake me up every morning on my phone as an alarm: I LOVE THIS REMIX. What's more, I love that you took the original music video elements and used them ALL. This just wins at every level.

@@pearce554 I too missed this the first time around. There are hundreds of reasons to love The Avalanches, but this is one I wasn't expecting -- introduction to awesome music I missed back in '82!

The original is one of my favorite songs. This is a great remix that keeps the spirit of the H & C version and brings out the inherent funkiness of the song. About time the Avalanches came out of retirement.

It must be my age. Why I am so late in discovering this music? When I was 13 good music just came to me so easily. Nowadays I only hear crap, unless I really search for better, like this. Sorry that is a sad comment but a glad discovery for me.

Wicked sample of a song that I grew up listening to. First time I’ve heard this band. Fucking incredible.

its amazing when a group like the avalanches can disappear for a long time..and pikup right where they left off. FUKIN AMAZIN

This beat ...this funk is undeniable

OMFG!!! What is this... I love It.

The Avalanches can do no wrong. Amazeballs.

Hunters and Collectors, one of my favourite Aussie Bands from the 80's.

The sample at the beginning is "Relight My Fire" By Dan Hartman, for those looking like I was. Fantastic remix, by the way.

This is certainly one of the most artistic band to have come out over 20 years. Seriously, wonderfully dynamic sound and videos style off the charts. I listen to them quite often just to vibe.

Finally real music!

Dan Hartman "Relight my Fire" sample at the beginning - NICE!

Wow, real visual art in media, something i haven't seen in a long fucking time. Vintage cinematography has certain aspects that digital cannot compete with.

I woke from a fever dream the other morning with this exact beat and echo like lyrics bouncing around my head.... to my memory I've never heard this song before.. Yet here is the song, no doubt. I think i might be losing it.

The second I hear that Bass, My worries, troubles are GONE...and it just gets better...peace.

That's their best beat! ♥

Un espectáculo. Lo que más me.gusta es la variedad dentro de un mismo estilo de banda. Soy modelo '64 y no hay manera que deje de gustarme cierto estilo de música que ya es muy difícil de disfrutar con alguien. ¡Saludos desde Córdoba Argentina ✌️!!!

Some of the vocals remind me of David Byrne, and maybe it's the black and white imagery, but, Morrisey.... old school stuff. Oh, I see this was remixed from a video from about that day... And beyond that, this brings me close to the Sun Dance ceremony, and a dozen other spooky things, really old school. I think that because the work is brave, and complete that I like it's hero so much. I've never heard of the Avalanches until today, and I'm glad there's a 2016 album to check out.

Highly unusual film making, the Avalanches hit the point though. Hunters and Collectors, Greg Person with his gas bottle to the Spaghetti tree in Stkilda, Melbourne Australia, filmed in Stkilda on the beach in the sand dunes and under the shower with a rubber band around the face of Mark Seymour

Awesome 👍

looks like a cross between a skinny puppy vs ministry video. dope song too. so glad to hear they've kept true to their sample stacked sound that made the 1st album both a masterpiece and a labor of love indeed
