Listen To The Avalanches BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix

Melbourne band The Avalanches have released their anticipated BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix.

The band – who recently shared their second studio album ‘Wildflower’ – are not the easiest guys to get in the booth, however this 2-hour compilation is certainly a sonic treat, with music from Sun Ra, Nina Simone, Madlib and Black Milk among others as well as some odd field recordings to set the mood.

This latest offering comes 15 years after their last DJ visit to the BBC Radio 1 studios, and we’re stoked the time has finally come.
