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.

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
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.

The goal of the work is always for it to come across as original material, as transformative material.
Girl Talk
I've been approached about doing some live performance collaborations with DJ's. That is something I'd be interested in getting into down the line, but I've worked very hard to distinguish myself as a laptop artist.
Girl Talk
The whole point of doing the pay what you want is to be reasonable with the fans.
Girl Talk
