More quotes by 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
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'm interested in branching out and seeing where my music goes.
Girl Talk
Samples are kind of my instrument of choice.
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.
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
The whole basis of the music is that people have these emotional attachments to these songs - whether they love it or hate it. Being able to manipulate that is a really easy way to connect with people.
Girl Talk
It's hard to play a laptop in the midst of band and have people want to buy your t-shirts and CD's.
Girl Talk
I'm trying to separate myself from other people by having songs that would be considered - technically - original things. I don't seek out mashups. I'm associated with the whole mashup movement, and it's too bad because I'm not a huge fan of them.
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.
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
As the times are changing, you don't hear as many sample issues with rap artists. Part of that has to do with production styles these days, but the nature of copyright is also changing as the internet becomes more of a giant.
Girl Talk
Sharing information, art, music, and everything on the internet now has become a part of everyone's lives.
Girl Talk
I feel like all the artists that I really love, they've had a strong contingent of people who really hate their work as well.
Girl Talk
It's easy to hate on things that are close to your world that aren't exactly what you're doing.
Girl Talk
I have my small little cult following, I play random shows from house parties to opening up for rock bands.
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
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
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.
