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.

I am always excited for gaps of time where I can actually hang out with my friends.

Sharing information, art, music, and everything on the internet now has become a part of everyone's lives.

I always like the people who keep moving forward, but kind of stay in their own lane.

Samples are kind of my instrument of choice.
Girl Talk
Image
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.

I've been cataloguing samples for years, I have this massive library. Songs come out everyday so it's never ending.

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.

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.

I have my small little cult following, I play random shows from house parties to opening up for rock bands.

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.

It's hard to play a laptop in the midst of band and have people want to buy your t-shirts and CD's.

It's weird for me when someone asks me to do a remix as Girl Talk and not use samples.
Girl Talk

I've grown up playing pop music for the experimental crowd and I always feel like I'm pushing something weird on people. I had this underdog feeling. It's crazy that all of a sudden I'm the overhyped band you read about on the blogs.

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.

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.

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.

The point of making records for me isn't to hear 300 songs in 50 minutes it's to hear the 50-minute piece of music.
Girl Talk

I like to use recognizable songs, but other than that, this song would be perfect.

I wanted to make experimental music out of pop.
