Girl Talk

Published on July 03, 2008

Mashup maestro Greg Gillis, aka Girl Talk, is hopping on the bandwagon and letting fans set the price for his latest LP, Feed the Animals. The Pittsburg DJ's fourth album blends everything from Hot Chip to Ice Cube into one seamless mix. Download it at the Illegal Art Records site, but expect a slight, one-question guilt trip if you decide to go the cheapskate route. Feeling generous? In addition to the CD-quality files, $5 scores you the FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) version, and for $10, he'll throw in a physical copy once the record becomes available — and a sense of superiority to boot. Now that's priceless.
