Listening Station: Mouthing Off On Girl Talk

The consensus on Pittsburgh’s Girl Talk (pictured here with the Cowardly Lion) appears to be split into two camps: Either he’s a sublime mash-up artist, or an overrated sample-hack. Thepunkguy has a somewhat-newish GT track up today, and while we never turn up our noses at a Phil Collins sample, we can’t help but wonder if the market for ironically reworked ’80s pop is all but dried up. Seeing as GT’s Night Ripper will likely find its way on some year-end lists, we ask for a sampling of your thoughts.
