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.

More quotes by 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.

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.

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
That's kind of a nostalgia thing. Nirvana was my first favorite band, in third or fourth grade. Then I got out of them. But one day in college a few buddies and myself all started listening to them again and it blew me away. They still stand out as my favorite band ever.

I always like the people who keep moving forward, but kind of stay in their own lane.
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
I think there's always room to grow.

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 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.
Girl Talk
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.
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
It's weird for me when someone asks me to do a remix as Girl Talk and not use samples.
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
Sharing information, art, music, and everything on the internet now has become a part of everyone's lives.
Girl Talk
A lot of people aren't aware of the years and years of humiliation and horrible shows I've played.
Girl Talk
My dad's been one of those dads who loves showing newspaper articles to the neighbors.
Girl Talk
I like to use recognizable songs, but other than that, this song would be perfect.
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
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 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.
