Originally posted on theavalanches.com/forum If anyone lives in Sydney, the State Library of NSW has a documentary in their collection on the making of 'Since I Left You'. It was made by the ABC, and it only goes for 15 minutes, but it's definitely worth checking out. It shows the Avalanches sampling, recording and mixing the album, visiting second-hand record shops, and being interviewed. I'd make a copy and post it on-line, but it's on VHS and I have no clue how to do the conversion.

I found these two links

but got no reply in the thread so far

Would really appreciate it if a kind soul could find a way to make this documentary available to the rest of the world

If you are unfamiliar with "The Avalanches", watch the vid below. Their album "Since I Left You" was made up of samples from around 3000 records.

They made "Since I Left You" with Akai S2000 samplers. I don't know what they do live. Their album is worth checking out regardless.
