Girl Tank is one friggin lucky guy. He takes random songs slams them together with no regard for musically tonality or any sense of style or quality and the a href="mailto:f@#$%ing"1f@#$%ing/a11hipsters love1him. I know there are a lot of hipster DJs out there who mix Guns n' Roses with 50 Cent who suck as well but don't get any love. Girl tank is just a passing fad like hammer pants. he'll be gone tomorrow. He's lucky he hasn't been sued!
haven't even heard of him. and really don't even care enough to google. img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beerbang.gif" alt="" /1 when a group of girls talk amongst themselves, img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/walkawaysonfinal.gif" alt="" /1
as a live dj i don't know. but i love the girl talk records. they're lots of fun. most people who hate girl talk have listened to a couple of minutes and said "this's not for me" fair enough, but hey your missing out on cassidy rapping over ace of base, and that's a sad day if you don't get that.
saw a clip of him "making a song" and he said some dumb shit like "what I do is no different than a guitar player adding pedals to distort a riff that was probably first written by the beatles, that music is no more original than mine"b,121b,121whatever.
b,121However bad Girl Talk may be, Z- Trip is 1000 times worse.

font class="post"1b,121b,121I dunno about anyone else, but to me, that kind of shit was entertaining about four or five years ago, when it was still kinda fresh. Once it reached the point where I'd heard that mix of Get Your Freak On over Back In Black almost as many times as I'd heard the o.g's, I'd had enough.b,121b,121If there are people out there who still enjoy it, then that's cool. I don't expect everyone to enjoy the same shit I like, so whatever. When this kind of thing is heralded as a masterpiece of bleeding-edge post-modern yada-yada what-have-you, then I start to have a more serious issue with it, because it isn't. No matter which way you slice it, it just isn't. If someone thinks my saying that makes me a hair-shirted musical snob and an enemy of fun, too bad. I take offence when some kid tells me that "you just don't get it", because, really, what's there not to get? What's it add to what's gone before, other than an ever-more-cheesy juxtaposition of records, as if that in itself was more important than the end-product? I don't much care for either Cassidy or Ace of Base, so I've no interest whatsoever in hearing a DJ/laptop jockey crowbar the two together, however briefly. But, as I said, if it works at a party for other people, fine. As for the earnest over-intellectualising of it, there's an old English expression that I often resort to when faced by this kind of flannel; don't piss on my boots and tell me it's raining.

Even if you were to blame Z-Trip for spearheading (in part) the whole mash-up craze with "Uneasy Listening", I still don't hold with the blaming of the cat with the good/clever idea for the legions of unimaginative, lazy copy-cats that come in his/her wake.
