Well, since this thread went from an opinion of how to mash-up songs to posting already existing mashups…

Good prediction. Based on my experience, you might listen to it almost non-stop for a couple of months and then become sick of it. And then move on to the next Girl Talk release.

You’re welcome **ToeJam**. The cool thing is, since you only hear about a minute at most of each song, it takes a looooong time to get sick of it. I love it.

However, his earlier works seemed choppy to me. IDK if it didn’t download right or if he just hadn’t honed his skills as well prior to All Day, but I didn’t like his earlier stuff.

OK, I went back and checked out the albums (for lack of a better term. “LP”? That’s no better.) that I had downloaded. Everything on Secret Diary sounds like the CD is skipping (and this is playing mp3s on my computer).  
Unstoppable and Night Ripper sound fine, though. These 2 albums come in at just under 80 minutes, so now I have a new CD chock full of “Auditory ADHD Crack”. (Which, BTW, is a great descriptor. Now when I hear a song on the radio that was sampled I feel like half the song is missing. I’m thinking “Where’s the underlying track?”)

I’m saving Feed the Animals for a rainy day.
