They are well known for their use of eclectic sampling, having created their debut album, Since I Left You (2000), entirely out of over 3,500 samples of obscure records, movies, and television shows. This is famously demonstrated on their hit single "Frontier Psychiatrist".
Before this, they were a hip-hop group with the single album Rock City and the EPy El Producto. After a 16 year hiatus, they released their sophomore album Wildflower (2016), which was followed by We Will Always Love You (2020).
2. A defunct American surf rock group
NOTE: The former band actually got their name from the latter, as The Avalanches' " Ski Surfin''" album was known to be their favorite album.
The Avalanches was an instrumental surf rock studio group, active in the 1960s, which included Billy Strange, Tommy Tedesco, David Gates (later of Bread) and Hal Blaine. In 1963 they recorded an LP Ski Surfin', which was re-released in 2007.

I genuinely love this song, and also anything that Jamie xx touches
@3ellatrix
this song was a spiritual experience
@jacobolichney7550
The first part/hook is a quote from Kurt Josef Waldheim, who was secretary general of the United Nations. The message was sent on the voyager 1 spacecraft, which is currently almost 14 billion miles away from Earth. "I send greetings on behalf of the people of our planet. We step out of our solar system into the universe seeking only peace and friendship, to teach if we are called upon, to be taught if we are fortunate. We know full well that our planet and all its inhabitants are but a small part of the immense universe that surrounds us and it is with humility and hope that we take this step."

Jacob Olichney I knew it was familiar! Thank you dude
@SensoriaMaRia
Thank you for the expanded text. Absolutely relevant. Even more so these days.
@noizW
He was Austrias president too
@GilKennedy
Thank for the full text
@btb3614
What is ironic about that message, is Waldheim (whom was the chosen person with the honour of that recording) was in fact, later outed as a high level Nazi, who although wasn’t a direct war criminal, did contribute to the atrocities of the war camps. Waldheim was also compromised in his UN role by the USSR (already discovered his past) by allowing spies into the USA under the guise of UN officials.
If that isn’t a metaphor for the human race as a whole I don’t know what is lol.
Plus...this has to be the ultimate ‘curb your enthusiasm’ moment.
@emmab2013
I was 13 years old when I first heard The Avalanches on radio 1 chart show. 20 years later and still can’t believe how amazing and fresh they still sound. Awesome ! ❤️
@floorshakermusic7354
We found them at the same time lol. I'm now 32. Was it "since I left you" and "frontier psychiatrist" by any chance?
