The Avalanches' No Bad Memories explores the uneasy relationship between nostalgia, advertising and consumer technology, drawing inspiration from the jingles, start-up sounds and branded audio that become woven into childhood memories. Built from deep sample digging, the album treats commercial ephemera as creative raw material, reflecting the group's enduring fascination with sampling as both process and art form. As Robbie Chater explains, every forgotten sound opens the door to another discovery, keeping the thrill of exploration alive. No Bad Memories features collaborations with Jamie xx, Karen O, Nikki Nair, Jessy Lanza, Prentiss and more.
