More quotes by 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
I like to use recognizable songs, but other than that, this song would be perfect.
Girl Talk
I have my small little cult following, I play random shows from house parties to opening up for rock bands.
Girl Talk
I love getting out there and traveling and doing shows and all of that. But when I can be home, it's a special time.
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
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'm interested in branching out and seeing where my music goes.

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.

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.
Girl Talk
I think there's always room to grow.
Girl Talk
I wanted to make experimental music out of pop.
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
A lot of people aren't aware of the years and years of humiliation and horrible shows I've played.
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 am always excited for gaps of time where I can actually hang out with my friends.
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
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'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
Something that distinguishes my solo work from normal rap production is that it has a lot of melody - it's not just cutting up a song and having someone rap over it.
