Just when you thought Mash-Ups were played out, Girl Talk comes back with another mix that makes your jaw drop (not to mention your ass that wont stop moving).  While most DJ's have taken lazy to another level by playing the same Crooklyn Clan "Throw Your Hands Up" pre-made mash up mixes at their parties, Pittsburgh native Gregg Gillis aka Girl Talk keeps on proving sample based mixes and mash-ups can be an art form.  If you've never heard a Girl Talk mix, imagine several hundred of your favorite pop songs from the past 30 years spliced into 20 sec to 2 minute pieces and glued back together into a collage that looks like a Van Gogh painting.  Yes, it's that good.  For proof simply check out his latest, ALL DAY.

Recently he was a focus of the documentary film Rip: A Remix Manifesto which discusses the U.S. government and RIAA's war on copyright infringement and piracy.  Mr. Gillis's albums are not original productions (that's why I refer to them as mixes) since they are made up of a bucket full of other people's music.  This has prevented him from selling them legally and has had to go the route made famous by Radiohead.  WIth the help of Illegal-Art.net his 5 albums have been posted for sale at a pay-what-you-want price.  You want it for free, cool.  You think it's worth $50, more power to ya!  Your money is treated as a donation to the artist and website to help keep the movement alive.

Many of you could give a rats ass about the legal dispute surrounding Girl Talk.  You just wanna dance.  I don't blame you.  And there's no better man to make that happen.
