  • The guy in the green shirt with sunglasses on is a total douche for just standing there the whole time.

  • this guy's just awesome, that's all there is to it.

  • Froth froth, so good

  • Girl Talk really sucks.

  • kelly clarkson with a nine inch nails sample???? never thought id see the day

  • FUCK YEAH.

  • I just finished a Girl-Talk style mashup album called A-Z&THC. I invite everyone to have a listen.

  • Yeah

  • Awready

  • Go get yourself Ableton Live...a library of tunes...and you could be doing this in a few months.

  • @dnbdjkc lol, no. Don't you realize what makes Girl Talk Girl Talk is his great talent in what he does?

  • @rad2k7 I think people who judge others by their musical taste are lame.

  • @rad2k7 if your gonna call something lame at least have the decency to know what your calling lame. its kelly clarkson, i think you just dont like dancing =P

  • @MrMollyFinger

    haha ok so how are you supposed to dance to kelly clarkson? jump and scream like an 8yr old girl? hah. Nah i love to dance. Check out rusko live santa cruz and learn what a real dance party looks like

  • @rad2k7 um it's Kelly Clarkson... know your music.

  • @rad2k7 clearly not taylor swift..

  • @rad2k7 Kelly Clarkson...but thanks for watching the video and bumping the watch count up!

  • Comment removed

  • @rad2k7 First off, it's not even Taylor Swift and second Girl Talk's mixes all sound great. So stop being a douche.

  • @rad2k7 if you dont like taylor swift you obviously have no respect for music as a whole you close minded fuck

  • must have been fucking insane <3

  • Video gave me goosebumps.. love it

  • Hmm..after watching this, I guess we'll find out tonight just how good he is, or isn't? I definitely could have done without Shout, gross! Save that for wedding djs, dude! My expectations are lowered...very...but there's not much at summerfest tonite.

  • Girl talk at SUMMERFEST in MILWAUKEE TONIGHT!

  • @KoenHead- please stop bitching. Your probably upset that the music you make is absolute shit. I play guitar and I know that this isn't just messing around on a computer. It takes long hours and creativity to make a good mix. You are very close-minded and I hope you learn to appreciate all forms of music.

  • i wish they were less like concerts and more like dancefloors/raves, why is everyone facing the stage, nothing to see

  • Is KoenHead code for IM A FUCKIN IDIOT? Im 35 but i bet your bald with a buncha cats reliving when you wanted to do high-school dances......oooooops I forgot to say FUCK YOU. Greg pulls more outta his head than your album collection combined. Fug it why am i wastin my time on your ass. Go Gregg!

  • People getting excited about some dork playing a laptop tells me that perhaps music truly IS dead and needs to be re-invented. When that happens, I hope and pray to God that it is done by REAL musicians and not a bunch of lame-assed DJs. Anyone who would rather pay to see this over, say, an average Garage Rock band, are the most gullible and soulless amongst us and that they don't realize this....even sadder. DEATH to this bullshit! Real music beats this fake crap EVERY time. Period.

  • @KoenHead I guess the appeal is that this is DJ'ing with a twist: he uses irony and cues from our collective history to mix very different styles of music. I haven't been to any of the live sessions, but from videos (and a New York Times article from a year or two ago) it seems that the crowd are affluent, hip and educated, and the juxtaposition of styles and genres resonates with them.

  • @ptaaffe But it's still just fooling people into believing they are having a musical experience. It's not real in any way shape or form. Sure, I'm probably making too much of it, but it's THIS kinda shit that is killing music circa 2011.

  • @KoenHead

    He's not killing music, this guy is a bloody God

  • @lurycio Never, NEVER worship false idols! Have you not learned anything? If you worship a guy dicking around on a laptop over a REAL musician, it speaks very poorly of you.

  • @KoenHead

    This guy is a true idol...anyway, why are you bringing the 10 commandments shit to YouTube?

    Honestly if you could do what this guy can then you could talk. I value real musicians on an equal level to this guy, but in THIS area of music such as electronic and mash-up music i believe this guy to be the best. I can list multiple musicians who I think are more talented than him but are in a completely different genre of music thus would be pointless.

  • @lurycio A "true idol??" Man, you don't expect much from life, do ya now? Also, ANYONE can do what this loser does. I can spend all day jerking off on a laptop. It IS NOT music. This guy is neither a musician OR a songwriter. He dupes easily impressed folks like you into thinking he's some kind of genius. Like I always say, I would rather watch three average musicians play than the BEST DJ on earth ANY DAY OF THE WEEK. He doesn't fit into a musical genre because he doesn't MAKE music! Period!

  • @KoenHead

    Doesnt make music no, he recreates music into something else...he morphs it into what he thinks is a good tune (which he is usually right about)

    I'm really not sure why the fuck you are looking at this video if you quite clearly hate his work so please go away and fap over some average musicians, while i will be listening to some great music created by some top notch DJs (Girl Talk isnt a DJ so stop calling him one)

  • @lurycio Umm....but it's NOT music. Try to get that through your lost little brain.

  • @KoenHead Then you dont know what music is, fuck off

  • @lurycio I'll bet you like Lady Gaga too, don't ya?? Your taste is in your ass, as is half of Manchester United. If most Brits have the shitty taste in music YOU do, I feel sorry for you fuckers. "I know more real music than you..." Jacking off all over a laptop IS NOT REAL MUSIC. This guy is a charlatan and as the world is full of suckers like you, this loser will remain employed. You know who else likes loud mashed-up noise and flashing lights? Autistic children! Think about it.......

  • @KoenHead ...You pegged me for a Lady Gaga fan? Are you pissed mate?, No my favourite bands are all from the 80s, Jane's Addiction and Faith No More, I'm into mainly metal and original rap and post rock and a lot of electronic music. This guy doesnt need to be employed by anyone brain dead fuck, hes making money as a mashup artist....one of the greatist mashup artists of all time. So you have a beef with mashup artists and autistic children? weird weird person

  • @KoenHead Damn bro, you sure spend a lot of time writing on YouTube and watching videos of people you don't like.

  • @NateBiggity Naw....just tryin' to prove a point.

  • @KoenHead

    There have been mashups that the original artist has said were better than the original, some that have people fooled as an original recording as well. this man is one of the best in the field of mashups, he creates masterpieces (you may not think so because you are stupidly narrow minded) out of songs that you would never mix together. i know what im talking about with music, ive lived and breathed it for my entire life, i started on normal music and moved on to mashups

  • @lurycio No, dummy, it is YOU who are stupid. This loser shits back other people's music, all the while NOT creating any music of his own to speak of, and gullible fools like you lap it up. Also, unless you can PLAY music (I play guitar and keyboards) , don't you DARE tell me how much you know about music! I've lived it and have played it on stage, in front of people. I still make it to a couple of open jams a month and we make REAL music. Mashups?? Good LORD, you are fucking simple. Fuck you!

  • @KoenHead

    I highly doubt you could create a mashup because that is what he does, to the quality of what he makes...most of the stuff he makes you cant even recognise as the original song, he does fit into the musical genre because he is creating a new song out of premade songs....as i said, Fuck off you are not wanted on this video.

  • @lurycio I'm an actual musician, you daft little wanker (just trying to speak your language). I don't crap out "mashups." I can create, write and actually play real music. I don't need to hide behind a laptop acting like a fool for a bunch of soulless dummies on Ecstasy. So, no, I will NOT "fuck off." I'm trying to let the 1% of this guy's fans with actual reasoning and logic know that there is still such a thing as actual music, and it beats this mindless nonsense ALL to Hell. So, Fuck YOU!

  • @KoenHead

    Dont give a shit if you are a musician, i know musician who like Girl Talk's music, they think hes brilliant as well, they (and I) like Mashups and normal music, i have rediculously wide music taste, I KNOW WHAT MUSIC IS dont talk down to me "you daft little wanker" (sorry just trying to speak your language as ive never called someone a wanker before) This isnt mindless nonsense, this is creating more than what the song was originally intended for.

  • @lurycio Yawwwwnnn.......If ya like Girl Talk, you are an ENEMY of real music. Back to my original point, this talentless fucker and his ilk are KILLING music. They don't have the talent to create, so they steal. That is ALL they do and they rely on mindless dummies like you to praise their lowly efforts. But you will never GET that and I just feel sorry for you. Well, almost. Girl Talk sucks goats balls. End of story......Thanks for playing, idiot!

  • @KoenHead Yawwwwnn you just cant do what this guy does, if you say hes talentless then you are an idiot. Its a talent to put songs together in a way they WORK, yes people have said his work is "stealing" and "a lawsuit" waiting to happen , but guess what? Im not assed hes good at what he does and you really do seem to be the idiot in this "argument". Im even willing to bet I like more "real" music than you. As i said before, you are not wanted here, FUCK OFF.

  • @lurycio Don't tell me where to surf on YouTube, ya little shit. The only idiot is the one who buys that this guy is talented when he steals other people's music and turns it into shit.. You claim he is "good at what he does," but as anyone with a fucking brain can see/hear, he is doing nothing at all. Why else does everyone who loves DJs need to take drugs to enjoy this soulless crap that passes for entertainment? Also, you don't like more REAL music than me, as you haven't a clue what it is.

  • The younger generation can best appreciate Girl Talk, because your catalogue of popular music is most up to date: you can instantly get a mash of UGK/Outkast (I am pushing 40 so had to look it up) and Steve Winwood...

  • @ptaaffe I am really sorry that you are feeling "older" at 40... I think you need to get out more!

  • @KrysteeClark I know, I will pull myself together. I like your channel by the way

  • @ptaaffe Thanks for the compliment! Dancing with abandon to bass heavy music keeps me young ;)

  • Comment removed

  • what camera did you use cuz the video and audio is crazy good

  • @timojr305 an old Sony Cybershot called a DSC T200... it compresses the audio to be tolerable for easy U tube enjoyment! (sooo much better then my Nikon D90 for bass heavy situations!)

  • Comment removed

  • Can't wait to see him at Bonaroo! Favorite new artist!

  • @tmgrnfn1 New? hes been around forever!!

  • that girl on the dudes shoulders with the crazy hat on..... Id tap that.

  • @tskinny11 Good to know.

  • Is this considered underground? He is mixing mainstream music

  • @Freezpopp mash up artist

  • @Freezpopp

    it is considered underground, ask a randomer "have you heard of the artist Girl Talk?" they will most likely say "no, i havent" although its mainstream music it isnt shown as mainstream as it is a mashup

  • so good. 

  • that would be the fucking best concert ever!

  • Baby's first techno.

  • gay ass coachella selling out of tix in first week!!!

  • gay as coachella selling out of tix in first week!!!!!

  • I love girl talk, but is he actually worth seeing live in "concert"? Club it'd be insane... but I'm a little nervous/skeptical about a normal concert. he's playing at the house of blues here soon and I'm assuming anything less than floor tickets is just pure garbage.. and that even floor tickets would be sorta weird without the whole club "setup" lights etc.

  • If you haven't been to one of his shows, you need to go. It's fucking life changing.

  • what exactly does he do in his live concerts? is his music pre-prepared and he just plays it off his computer or is he controlling and changing it as he plays it?

  • @bnisawsome He controls/changes it when he wishes. Look up some videos on here of him creating mashups

  • gay music

  • HAHAAA 4:54 it looks like that kid is beating the fucking crowd with that stick

  • p.s what is the first mash up called, the song playing at the very start?

  • @IbanezRG450dx1 so i guess any dj at any night club blows you? they all use other peoples music in their sets, even deadmau5. your an idiot

  • I care what frank thinks!

    Syke.

  • I went to go see him that year...he was pretty amazing!!!!!.....front row...yea be jealous

  • in his interviews he doesn't seem like a suerstar, but when he's on stage, he transforms.

  • i give you credit for filming this i think id get too excited to keep the camera steady

  • badass!

  • @Gdubb90

    "badass"...really? Really?!  See the world, son.

  • dude needs a midi controller, or something, hunching over a laptop is so 2003.

    gr8 mashups tho, genius.

  • @alloowishus really? id say rocking a laptop is sick and is something that is just come around now, and big midi setups and turntables and other shit is so 2003

  • @alloowishus yeah that's assuming he's using standard programs.

  • molllly

  • I want to learn to mash-up like this guy!

  • I gotta go see him live before I die

  • What tent was this?

  • yeah! i've been wanting to here a mash up with the train!

  • Girl Talk....love it

  • his style is mash-up? really?

  • that was epic

  • this show was soooo eppppic!

  • DAMN!!!!!!

  • the end of this set was so epic. i was outside the tent stage right. watching everyone dance with the balloons falling, GT riding the inflatable boat into the crowd, seeing the people on the stage exit the tent so excited and happy to have been a part of it all. such a coachella moment

  • Coachella.. hhhm is this a one year event or multi year event? also any one playing there good this year?

  • Coachella is a yearly event, a 3 day music and arts festival in Indio CA with an AWESOME lineup... many genres of music represented. I have gone every year ;)

  • @KrysteeClark the acl/ lollapolooza of california

  • @KrysteeClark is it really expensive?

  • @bongtoker420 Coacheaal? Adverage festival price, check their website... worth every penny ;)

  • @bongtoker420 YES!!!! BUT ITS WORTH IT!!!!

  • person below me is wrong, it is not three six

    its UGK

  • that the international players anthem by three six

  • @st00pidness i saw him at big day out in january and asked him when he is going to bring out a new album i told him he has to bring a new one out he said he will hopefully this year or next. the only thing stopping him is copyright he can be sued millions for his music.

    see RIP: manistfesto of a remix trailer

  • What 36 Mafia Song Is That?

  • In which album is the remix with this "You make me want to shout"? Or else what did he mix in it???

  • WHEN THE FUCK IS HE GONNA MAKE A NEW CD!?! I Need one NOW! They are perfect for the summer

  • @st00pidness I'm pretty sure i read somewhere that he said he doesnt really plan on releasing albums like his past ones anymore.

  • @st00pidness All Day just came out yesterday!!

  • @st00pidness just did nigga

  • @st00pidness they are perfect all the time

  • so stoked to see him this week!!!

  • youve prolly gotta be on hard drugs to enjoy this concert

  • but if you are, holy fuck.

    :0

  • got any?

  • @Vandatta1 Nope. Wrong kiddo.

  • and he is unique, no one else like him

  • Does anybody know the name of another dj like this? One that plays allot of his own remixes and mashups?

  • The Hood Internet, really good and well known.

  • Super Mash Bros, The Hood Internet, Me

  • he's not a dj

  • Yacht Club djs is one

  • Wooot seeing this cunt tomorow! Yeaaa!

  • I do beleive thats A-Trak chilling on the right side of the stage in the big sunnies and dark green shirt

  • You say his take on music is ironic. Read an interview with him. He likes all the music he plays and doesn't see it as ironic at all.

  • I like all the music he plays too. Everyone does!

    Hence the irony in making this killer pop music become something "underground and illegal". Such a fun concept  ;)

  • @KrysteeClark

    I saw him at sasquatch in 2009, I felt like the ironic part about it was the fact that he could take a song that most people would claim they dislike, and you'll have a stage full of hipsters shouting out the lyrics when it's mixed. Its not a bad thing, and I appreciate that he doesn't specify the songs he uses by what he thinks is cool. He just uses songs that work.

  • he hasnt got his shirt off, mustn't of been late enough into the gig :P

  • this is a remix of his song Here's The Thing, off of his Feed The Animals album.

  • Actually it's Kelly Clarkson but I think my point is still just as valid.

  • Ryan your favourite songs are by Chris Brown and Ne Yo. Maybe Avril is singing about your credibility?

  • winner

  • look sweetie i'm sorry, but "laptronica" is about the lamest thing since italians started listening to trance music and fist-pumping at clubs. This shit is weaksauce. I mean seriously, he this guy "mixes" kelly clarkson. Give me a fucking break. At least a real DJ might use a turntable. That at the very least takes a couple of months to master.

  • Do you have any idea how long it must take him to come up with his songs? And contrary to popular belief he actually mixes everything live. You don't need a turntable to be a "DJ" - which he says time and time again that he is not.

  • I agree with the not needing a turntable to be a DJ statement but him 'mixing' everything live isn't exactly accurate, using audiomulch in the way he does takes skill but its easy to line up all the samples you'll need in a set, so his mashups are following a set pattern, the 'live' element is arbitrary. The sampling is the hardest bit, his library of samples is immense, thats a definite love of music. His style is so unique its crazy hard to pinpoint.

  • @ryanc13377 it takes just as much skill as playing a live instrument i garauntee you that, because i do both

  • If you think this is lame you should see him live. It is the most fun you'll ever have.

  • @frankfromdubbo bassnectar is the most fun.

  • @frankfromdubbo Girl Talk blows my dick..... give me some bassnectar, deadmau5, ghostland.... real music, this guy blows so bad he uses other peoples music

  • @frankfromdubbo Couldnt agree more, saw him on New Years in Milwaukee. I would see him again in a heartbeat. Awesome time

  • @frankfromdubbo

    i dont think this is lame, i honestly think going to see him would be the best concert i ever see

  • @ryanc13377 He mixes it live, so it won't be the same as the album when you see him. I feel like remixes songs and switching out parts that quickly and seamlessly probably requires a good deal of skill.

  • man this guy plays on his laptop better than anyone I have ever seen playing on a laptop before. There once was this guy at Starbucks and I was like "WOAH", but this guy is way better. I bet he hit "play" on Itunes to play his "mix" and started playing World of Warcraft AT THE SAME FUCKING TIME. WITH STROBE LIGHTS.

  • your such a douchebag

  • i want to be in girl talk concert - they are so awesome =]

  • Big day out Gold coast Australia be there lol

  • same brahhh haha

  • JUMP van halen

  • whats the name of the mash up that starts at 4:04 ?

  • lol hipster fucks

  • Hey what can you say Scientists Know how to rock.

  • 2:48 lol

  • so if i wanted to download this stuff on itunes... what am i searching?

  • You can't, just google girl talk and on illegal art's website you can download it high quality for free. Legally he can't sell this stuff.

  • @blacklite911 incorrect... you can buy it off of itunes, or just a cd from a brick and mortar store... the artist's name is girl talk, so that is what you search for.

  • Actually you are incorrect about itunes. The artist(s) on itunes that goes by girl talk is not Gregg Gellis. Common misconception, but like I said you can go to illegal art's website and download it for however much you want to pay which ranges from $0-infinity. I don't know what stores carry it though, I suppose some do if they want but it'll be hard to find.

  • your right... my b...

    i know a local record store sells the cd version, so if you find a place like that you can get it. i think you might be able to find it on vinyl as well, though i'm not sure why you' d want it
