girl talk sounds dreadful. that whole indie posturing djing mashups from a bloody apple mac whilst sporting an asymmetrical hoxton haircut gig was old, old, old about five years ago in london, surely?
peaches geldof probably likes them.
Girl Talk WAS 5 years ago, or at least the first CD was. They had a Kaos pad and they were going to use it. They got ripped to shreds in one review, can't remember where from now.
I haven't a musical ear so can't comment on technicalities but, for me, what's lacking is delirious excitement. I just haven't heard anything that's taken my head off or given me goosebumps or ripped a hole in the reality vortex in ages. A lot of electronic music seems very shy at the moment, it's almost apologetic in its approach.
