"WHO'S THIS LAPTOP ASSHOLE?" ASKED DAD.

I haven't listened to anything by Girl Talk in years. I seem to remember the big deal with him (Girl Talk is one guy) was that he used a massive amount of samples. Tonight  I was digging around a dead blog and ran into a song of his and, guess what? Massive amount of samples. A minute after hearing a sample ot the Edgar Winter Group's "Frankenstein" I'm hearing the Beastie Boys over Iggy Pop's "Lust For Life". Then I ran into a free download of the entire LP, "authorized" by Girl Talk. Could be good, could be bad. I think I'll appreciate it more if I think about it as hanging with some stoner that wants you to hear his favorite thirty second snippets of songs all night. I've been on the receiving end of that.

A list of songs sampled on the album is also at the site, so you can play that game. When you think you hear something you recognize, check the list. What the hell, you're probably just sitting around the house anyway.
