More quotes by Girl Talk
I've been dedicating my life to doing remixes and sample based music. Whether you're into it or not I'm going to continue to pump it out.
Girl Talk
I always like to borrow bits and pieces of things. There's a line between jumping on something that's happening and incorporating bits and pieces of it into my work.
Girl Talk
In 2008 it's easy to get huge before you have an album out with the Internet. I think that's great and you see a lot of artists like that. It seems like it's becoming rarer to find a band that has been touring for six years, doing small shows and then breaking out.
Girl Talk
I still like weird music but there's such an overabundance that it's hard for me to stay enthusiastic about it.
Girl Talk
In 1990 if you heard a song on the radio and you really wanted to hear it again you'd have to buy it on tape or CD. Hearing music doesn't hold that kind of value anymore because anyone can hear it. It's going to become even easier.
Girl Talk
I've been approached about doing some live performance collaborations with DJ's. That is something I'd be interested in getting into down the line, but I've worked very hard to distinguish myself as a laptop artist.
Girl Talk
I didn't change much in terms of my setup or how I was making my music. It's evolved to this point where I think people look at it as one big traveling party.

A lot of artists are used to their music being reused online and have come to accept and embrace it. You have a generation who go on YouTube and remake and remix music online all the time. They remake and upload songs and videos, and then other people remake the remakes it just keeps going.

The music is in no way politically based - I'm not trying to make a point about sampling. It may bring up issues but I'm not trying to push it on anyone.
Girl Talk
I'd been to a lot of shows and I was just tired of people being jaded about music in general. Just a lot of pretensions, a lot of the attitude that goes along with it was a little difficult for me to deal with.
Girl Talk
In the past, hearing music had more value.
Girl Talk
Anytime there is any lyrical meaning or combination in my mixes, it's very blatant. I'm not trying to make any statement or anything like that.
Girl Talk
I've been cataloguing samples for years, I have this massive library. Songs come out everyday so it's never ending.
Girl Talk
Sometimes the show needs that kick in the ass so being able to sing a Nirvana song kind of takes it there. I've grown up putting on extravagant shows with Girl Talk so when I'm playing I like to go nuts. After 30 minutes of pointing and clicking it's nice to scream into a microphone for three minutes.
Girl Talk
You can feel a little vulnerable when you see people tearing you apart on the internet or saying, It's the end of music. This guy is a total hack. I've read it all. But at the same time, even though I feel a little vulnerable with that, I do feel comfortable.
Girl Talk
The point has always been to make music, it's not like I've always been running a giant money making scheme.
Girl Talk
I was a jaded high schooler, I was still into pop music, though not as sincerely as I am now. It was more tongue-in-cheek back then.
Girl Talk
The whole point of doing the pay what you want is to be reasonable with the fans.
Girl Talk
Fair use is a part of United States copyright law. You don't know if it falls under fair use until you go to court. Someone has to sue you and then you have to challenge it.
Girl Talk
I'm interested in branching out and seeing where my music goes.
