More quotes by Girl Talk
The goal of the work is always for it to come across as original material, as transformative material.

I think it's an interesting thing to have to produce an album that you'll want to listen to for 50 minutes.
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.
Girl Talk
I think collaborating with a DJ could be interesting musically and it's something that I'd like to get into down the road, but I think on the live show tip I'm sticking to my guns for right now.
Girl Talk
My start came with experimental musicians and live bands. I never played with DJ's because it wasn't really the correct fit. It fit in more with someone using a laptop to create their own electronic music. When you're doing music like that, it's hard to get more than 20 people to come to your show.

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.

I use minimal software to make my music - a wav editor and a calculator for my beats to make sure everything falls on mathematical precision. If you were just mapping this out visually, it works by math. I guess it's slightly engineering influenced.
Girl Talk
My dad's been one of those dads who loves showing newspaper articles to the neighbors.
Girl Talk
People see me on stage and sometimes they think, Who's this hotdog thinking that he's the best. They miss the point that what I'm doing now comes from a whole different world of doing it for no one with nobody caring.
Girl Talk
In the two years of preparing material for shows, I realized there are elements that are definitely going to work live, but might not be the most exciting thing to put on a record. And there's stuff that I really love but it falls flat live.
Girl Talk
I love getting out there and traveling and doing shows and all of that. But when I can be home, it's a special time.
Girl Talk
Sharing information, art, music, and everything on the internet now has become a part of everyone's lives.
Girl Talk
I'm interested in branching out and seeing where my music goes.
Girl Talk
I'll put out an album, and people review it, and some people love it, and some people tear it apart. By nature of the project, I've always wanted this to be something where people react strongly to it.
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
Me and my friends would drive for eight hours to play for twenty people. That was cool, and if a couple of people bought t-shirts, that would be the greatest thing. We could go eat some hamburgers that night.
Girl Talk
I think there's always room to grow.
