Girl Talk

Brigitte sent me the MySpace page of this DJ dude who goes by the name "Girl Talk", which has nothing to do with the style of music he mixes. He puts together upbeat, dancy combinations of hip hop, classic rock, pop, even folk stuff (I think there's some Shawn Colvin in there). I've had it on in the background at work happily tapping my foot under my desk and possibly doing a slight head bob till someone sees me and I turn red. If you have it on though, keep it low because it is hip hop after all so there's some non-PG language. My favorite combination is on track 4 on the MySpace page that's a mix of Jackson Five's "ABC" with the drums from Rihanna's "Umbrella" and some melodramatic guitar from "Bohemian Rhapsody." Musically I think he has some better mixes, but I give him a lot of credit for creativity on that blend.
