At Mister Jalopy's other Blog Dinosaurs and Robots, he has posted a rather elloquant reminiscence of MTV and posted some of his favorite videos via MTV's Video Archive. I strongly agree with his sentiment, because I was turned on to so many great things, and so many better things because of MTV. Be it the Nine Inch Nails video for Closer that aped the style of Joel Peter Witkens photography, or a video that refferenced a more famous movie, MTV was the cultural ground flo... MORE

Words can not express my adoration of this DJ group from Melbourne, Australia and this album. It's the ultimate mashup album long before mashup's were popular! It's SOOOOOOO good! I had to post this since these guys sampled 'Stool Pidgeon' from Kid Creole & The Coconuts which Mike The Knife posted HERE. The song didn't come through on my comment over there so I had to post it here. The sample is from the first line of the chorus of the Kid Creole song & it's unmistak... MORE

I don't know about you but I can't take it anymore. Where the hell is the next Avalanches album? How long does a body have to wait? Well from what I can tell they've been working on it for some time. In a way I'm happy they're taking their time but at the same time I think I'm giving undo anticipation to the next album. They've been very secretive about their next album. From their site I know they've been putting on some shows over the years in Australia and releasi... MORE

This video, as well as this band, has always amazed me. Both really push the boundaries of their genre. I really enjoy them.

So check it... i went to get glasses today, which kinda sucks, but im not that sad... Anyways, the LensCrafters in Emeryville is right by a TowerRecords, so i thought, hey, might as well take a look-sie right? After browsing through lots of CD's and finding tons of singles i'd been looking for, i decided to check in the Dance section for The Avalanches, and i thought hey, wouldn't it be cool if they had When I Met You, an Avalacnhes mix including The Beatles, Bob Dylan...

I discovered The Avalanches because of the Frontier Psychiatrist 12" single that was delivered to MUH, where I DJed while in high school - it subsequently became one of our local top songs. Even so, it took me a while to really give the whole record (Since I Left You [2000]) a thorough listen. My final conclusion was that it's one of the greatest records, and the completely silly Frontier Psychiatrist pales in comparison to a cut like Live at Dominoes, particularly after... MORE

I realize I've posted a lot of videos lately which is somewhat regrettable since I don't want Mog to turn into a youtube mirror site, however I read Tyler's post about The Avalanches and realized that this is one of the best videos ever. I'm serious.
