No thread on the Girl Talk album, surely some mistake

"rude boy" right?

i wonder if this is going to -- eventually, at least -- be made available on itunes/emusic-type services. the last one was iirc.

i cant imagine the dude makes too much on record sales, especially since anyone who really cares about his shit is gonna grab the free version today

also it's much harder for him to get sued if he's putting this stuff out for free and touring hard where he's doing what thousands of other people do every night

i mean, how can anyone not enjoy these four songs at the same time??

# 5:09 Iggy Pop - "Lust for Life"
# 5:09 Beastie Boys - "Hey Ladies"
# 5:15 White Town - "Your Woman"
# 5:18 Lady GaGa - "LoveGame"

assume this question is sarcastic as i can imagine little worse

by which i mean that the "make all your money touring!!" thing actually makes sense for him as legal protection

there are some really good parts on here

girl talk shows must be the worst

i've seen him live. it was a blast.

he probably doesn't make much on record sales, but still his prior albums are available on emusic.

the instrumentals he's picking here are really good -- a lot of funkier shit and/or stuff that works as beats & a lot less "alt rock" + "rap" or just laid out instrumentals -- seems like he's thinking more about what instrumentals would sound good as samples as opposed to a kitschiness factor -- the bananarama & inxs bits work really well

Honestly not trying to pick on Whiney while he isn't here, but lol at him on Twitter bringing up the same old Girl Talk argument about how corny indie folks would never be caught dead listening to Trick Daddy otherwise.

80s pop song + rap verse = works a lot of the time
everything else = terrible failure

i'll defend whiney since he's not here

- it's a played out argument yeah, it is right tho
- also whiney is a huge 'night ripper' stan, or at least he was in 06

I just don't feel like we need to rehash that argument every time a new album rolls around.

nah you're right

i'm halfway through with this and now just hoping that he'll go through the whole thing w/o dropping a drake verse

every song being 6 minutes long does not forebode too well

hahah he really hasn't used "time after time" before??

eh it sounds just like girl talk

feel like girl talk would be a fun guy to shoot the shit with on ilm

I was <3 when ice cream paint job came on

we got him to play our uni after night ripper came out, it was one of the best shows I've ever seen...at my uni

he was a pretty decent interview -- when i asked him what new shit he was digging i remember him bringing up that killer mike/trina track on here

girl talk was fun altho i find his music a little hard to dance to tbh

"wake up" was really ripe for this & it sounds great

I thought I heard a few songs he'd used before, hasn't he used "Move Bitch" before too?

and "Get Ur Freak On"?

yeah you're probably right

i apple + f'd for "get ur freak on" on the night ripper/feed the animals wiki pages & got nothing

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo it's drake you almost did it gregg!!!!!!

comment was less about the music or the experience and more about the audience

"one day" + "imagine" = smart imo

markers prob doesn't dance

dying @ this, but obv otm

omg I can't believe you like the imagine part, I felt like that was clearly the worst single idea he's ever had

imo this is way better than feed the animals!

i dance in my chair and air guitar but that doesnt really count

i don't think it's great or as poignant as some of his stuff can be, just that it was a good idea in theory

markers can't dance, he can't talk
only thing about him is the way he walk.

pretty sure the audience would be 100 percent people exactly like you

feel like girl talk would be a fun guy to shoot the shit with on ilm

fixed

the idea that a FUCKING MASH-UP ALBUM FOR STUDENTS gains any critical attention whatsoever in 2010 is so annoying. not fun not clever just grim and gross.

also fucking DANCE ffs (not to this)

more about the audience

what are the audiences like at the shows you go to? (xpost n/a)

mostly everyone i know that is SUPER into girl talk has terrible taste in music/fits into the category of whiney's tweet but oh well i enjoy the stuff

^^

the audiences at the shows i go to generally arent much better, but i dont go to many shows, so

always felt like the name 'feed the animals' was an indirect reference to his shows

markers prob doesn't dance, he just pulls up his pants
