I've been dedicating my life to doing remixes and sample based music. Whether you're into it or not I'm going to continue to pump it out.

It's easy to hate on things that are close to your world that aren't exactly what you're doing.
Girl Talk
Image
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've been cataloguing samples for years, I have this massive library. Songs come out everyday so it's never ending.

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.

I still like weird music but there's such an overabundance that it's hard for me to stay enthusiastic about it.

My dad's been one of those dads who loves showing newspaper articles to the neighbors.

I wasn't trying to make a following. I was just trying to make interesting music. That's not being modest, that's just being realistic.

The music is in no way politically based - I'm not trying to make a point about sampling. It may bring up issues but I'm not trying to push it on anyone.

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.

I make a living off of playing shows the albums only make me a fraction of what I make off of shows, especially since I'm doing around 100 shows a year.

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.

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.

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.

Image
A lot of people aren't aware of the years and years of humiliation and horrible shows I've played.
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.
