And on an unrelated note, I thought it was very original of them to include a trojan horse with the album. AC is always pushing boundaries!

It's also used at the end of a Jens Lekman song Maple Leaves. They used it in Appy Halloween, that Panda student film

I hear that sample everywhere, always catches my ear. TV shows especially use it a lot for playground scenes and whatnot
Hashman I appreciate your onomatopoeic attention to detail

got really bored and decided to trawl through myanimalhome.net on the internet archive, found the old circuit bent billy bass and tracklist reveal videos from the MPP site, got even more bored and decided to decompile the files they were contained in in order to get the original video files and put them on youtube for preservation. haven't seen these around in a long time

Thanks for posting meysell. For those of us who weren't aware of MPP hype when it was going on, it's a nice little peek at a huge moment in AC's history.

It's kind of insane that Here Comes the Indian seems to contain both some of the loudest and the softest moments in AnCo's discography.
Though they may not have played traditional pop songs during that era, they had musicality in spades.

Ok, fair. They weren't playing very many traditional pop songs during that era.

Reminds me of when Daniel Lopatin livetweeted Billy Corgan's 8-hour ambient jam..."At this point I would just crank that eventide to 'wet' and let it rain."

Not enough? But seriously, I think Tomboy has the most reverb and what not, MPP has a good amount though.

Ha, I love Tomboy, not my favorite album but it has some really great songs. Crank the verb would be a wonderful phrase to describe some AC albums if it doesn't get worn out though.

I'm gonna come clean, I very strongly suspected this to be the case

About half an hour in. What a great interview. Makes me wish we'd hear more from the guys on long form platforms with a more conversational vibe. Helps that the dude seems like a genuine fan too. Really really cool to hear in-depth viewpoints from Avey on songwriting and producing with the guys - haven't heard much about Slasher Flicks at this point...
WANDERING WOLF (Yoni Wolf's podcast) Avey Tare interview
Just listened to the whole thing, too lazy to add the individual questions to the Q&A thread or whatever. Recorded in Louisville the night after I saw him at Pitchfork (7/19). Really reinforced my love of Dave. He mentions benefitting from breathing meditation sessions with Josh's mom, Jessica Dibb. Google creeped on her, lol.
As far as Yoni goes, he doesn't seem like too bad of an interview. It's cool to hear two musicians you respect talk for a while. I talked with him a while in a hot tub at a Prince Rama installation he visited in February. Here's that podcast he did with them. (You can barely hear me in the background at one point, lol)
