Sample Mania

After today's discussion regarding tinkering, I couldn't help but post this video. The Avalanches are an Australian DJ collective; in order to produce their most popular and critically-acclaimed album "Since I Left You" (completed way back in 2000 and released in 2001), the musicians compiled 3,500 obscure vinyl samples for just 18 tracks. Impressed by Girl Talk? Just give this a whirl. Make sure you stick it out long enough to hear the mixing of the bird noise...you'll understand.
For a (slightly) less-bizarre and uber-funky cut, check out the album's title track. Happy tinkering!
