Gaspar Lewis posted:Baberaham you are so loving on point across the board it's not even funny. Let's be slightly better acquaintance-bros for the foreseeable future. Thanks dude. I'm not sure how lit critty any of my senior thesis will be, but I am intrigued by that. Have you ever seen any of Burrow's 'Cutups'? He was essentially doing what you're describing, but with famous books instead of music in the public domain (actually, I'm not sure if all of 24 Hours was in the public domain, but I'm pretty sure that most of Since I Left You is. Also, Aus copyright law is wonky and I don't understand it, so maybe they have a more all-encompassing public domain).

Debating whether or not to see Girl Talk live again. His Halloween set was basically his new album samples with Halloween poo poo mixed in, and I don't really want to see the same-ish show. Also, I don't think anything can top Halloween other than New Years.

If there's one thing that Gillis knocks out of the park every time it's the end of his albums. I know it's an overused, cliched word now, but they truly are epic in the context of mashups.

Maybe I'm a simpleton, but this new GT album will certainly end up being blasted out of my car for the next couple weeks. Well, it will be played in between podcasts from NPR. In my subaru. As I commute from my suburban home to my government job. It's me, I'm the whitest person... edit: I do wish it had a bit more of the weird glitchiness that made NR so awesome, but I also like the longer sample and generally laid back poppy sound. And yeah, I know those two ideas contradict.

All Day, like the live show I saw in October, has lost the magic and energy that was present in Night Ripper and the shows he did in 06/07 with Dan Deacon. I might throw it on at a party or something but I don't really see myself listening to this nearly as much as I did Night Ripper or FTA.

I'm really glad All Day was free, because I think it's fantastically mediocre if not bordering on outright bad. There is nothing on this album that stands out. Everything sounds the same. Almost every song he picked is very very similar, so it doesn't feel like anything new pops out at you. He doesn't balance the bad music with the good music like he did so well on his last two albums. There's nothing close to a "holy poo poo this guy is amazing" moment like Flashing Lights + No Diggity on FTA

Basically it can be summed up in him giving Bizarre Love Triangle and Liquid Swords like 15 seconds each and Ke$ha gets like a minute. E: It's merely one problem anyway. If he threw more music I listen to in my spare time on here it still wouldn't be that much better.

The only Ke$ha sample was a couple seconds of vocal one-shots and Bizarre Love Triangle got over a full minute, though? What else are you calling bad music?

I think you can identify weaknesses in the album, to be sure, but to say that, as a criticism, he used sample X too little and sample Y too much, where X corresponds to my musical tastes is, uh, ridic. I glossed over your edit. My bad. Alec Eiffel fucked around with this message at 02:36 on Nov 17, 2010 |

Welp. Here is some awesome/horrible news from Milkman.Milkman posted:Milkman ATTENTION: The final LP in the Milkman Mashup Trilogy: Algorithms is in it's final stages of production and is due for an early 2011 release. IN THE MEANTIME our homeboy Girl Talk just released his latest mashup album and it's absolute FIRE! Check it out at https://www.myspace.com/girltalk! Get it. Listen to it. Love it. Can't wait for the new album, but I'm sad he isn't looking to continue. Though I guess that you can only do so much with mashups, and that showed with the latest girl talk.

It was terribly generic. His mashup is among some of the best out there, on the other hand. It'd be a huge loss if he went that way.

Yeah, the only thing that has stopped me from listening to it over and over has been the fact that I got Kanye's new album right when I got All Day. There are definitely more lulls than there were in NR or FTA, which is a weakness, but there also exists more potential to build to something great or really enjoy a great match than in previous albums. At times in NR or FTA, something would be brilliant, but all too fleeting.

Also, I'm echoing the sentiments of everyone else - Night Ripper was magic because it was fresh and new and different, FTA was great as well, but now theres just so many mashup artists out there that the new album is good, and solid, but I'm not floored anymore. His live shows are still one gigantic party though, which is always appreciated. One thing I don't agree with, is everyone saying how great the ending is - I like the sorta epicness of Imagine, but it just seems so SLOW compared to the great sample from Faithfully on FTA.

So have always kinda thought that mashups CAN be a decent way of rejuvenating a has-been track, and splicing it with another similar sounding track, to the benefit of both tracks. However, there are ridiculous amounts of AWFUL homemade and so-called professional mashups on the web, I kinda wondered as to people's opinions on said 'technique' in terms of enjoyment and/or if they have any decent ones they swear by, orrr any they absolutely hate? I quite liked the Bob Sinclair/Craig David - World Hold On For Hot Stuff (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GP1NKh7Kpyg) - not entirely sure whether this was official or not? And there was also: Britney/Linkin Park - Toxic/Faint (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTB35xttygQ) Have checked and re-checked the rules, so am hoping this (as my premier post) doesn't break an inordinate amount of rules before I even get going? x
