More quotes by 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
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
I wanted to make experimental music out of pop.
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
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.

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.

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.

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
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
I hear something I like, and sometimes, I think it's gonna work, and I will cut it up, try it out, try to work with other material. Sometimes, it falls flat, and other times, it works out, so in that way, I'm constantly listening to music because I enjoy it.
Girl Talk
Sharing information, art, music, and everything on the internet now has become a part of everyone's lives.
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
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
The goal of the work is always for it to come across as original material, as transformative material.
Girl Talk
A lot of people aren't aware of the years and years of humiliation and horrible shows I've played.
