Not surprisingly the Avalanches have a LOT of technical and legal issues to go through in creating such a masterpiece. All the various samples have to be approved by numerous officials, relatives of artists, etc., just to get permission to publish. They do that for us. Thank you, Avalanche.

@little ghost Thank you for that explanation. I am not entirely familiar with copyright law but I get what you're saying. Still, as you have rightfully noted artists too do require nourishment. So they must sell their production. Permissions are required. Thanks again, stay safe, take care.

well, not quite lol. using unauthorized samples is completely legal as long as you don’t attempt to profit off of the final product, or use it for commercial purposes. so the sample clearing is really for the sake of their pocket book. they legally could have distributed their music (freely) from day one.
but hey, artists need to eat too. i’m glad they were able to get clearance on everything and make some money on what is clearly a labor of love and a huge technical undertaking

Reading the comments on Avalanches songs is a joy in itself

This song is euphoric - one of the more memorable tracks off a great album

The Avalanches aren't a band or artists. They are a school of music scientists and engineers paid by a wealthy philanthropist to save humanity through the classiest, coolest and doppest collages of samples ever done by a living being.
