More quotes by 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
I always like the people who keep moving forward, but kind of stay in their own lane.
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
That's kind of a nostalgia thing. Nirvana was my first favorite band, in third or fourth grade. Then I got out of them. But one day in college a few buddies and myself all started listening to them again and it blew me away. They still stand out as my favorite band ever.
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
I think we're approaching an era where there's a consistent dialogue going on between artists and consumers. And I think that's going to be part of the solution to actually selling music.
Girl Talk
When someone is buying a sample-based album, they are investing in the concept of that album. If they really like the original source material, they can go buy it.
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
When people come to my shows they know there is a distinct beginning and end. It's difficult for me to play for much more than an hour, so people kind of come out and treat it like a rock show. They're fiending and ready to dance.
Girl Talk
I am always excited for gaps of time where I can actually hang out with my friends.
Girl Talk
The whole point of doing the pay what you want is to be reasonable with the fans.
Girl Talk
KRS-One is one of my favorite rappers ever. I actually don't even know why I have this on my computer, but I do. I really like this album, Criminal Minded.
Girl Talk
I think there's always room to grow.
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
When I would play pop music at underground shows, it was offensive to some people. I wasn't doing it to piss people off: I just didn't believe in those strong divisions that you're supposed to listen to this or that.
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
Throughout hip-hop people have been putting different elements with different types of music.
Girl Talk
I wanted to make experimental music out of pop.
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
I've always enjoyed taking pre-existing sound, songs I like, songs I want to share, and manipulating them and trying to do my own version. So just knowing there's that potential for that thing out there that I haven't discovered yet, really gets me motivated every day.
