Feed the Animals, Annotated. With a Y-Axis for year of the samples' release, even!

It's so much fun letting this stream and watching the surprises pop up below the timeline. I hope Girl Talk uses this format for his releases from here on out.

So much talent from a former engineer and a front-end developer, to mix together some unfortunately pretty crummy songs.

That is, just, wow.

Agreed. The songs he chose for vocals made me stop listening 15 minutes in. I did enjoy everything else though. Wished he would've picked better rap lyrics.

The first minute of Play Your Part is on the short list of my favorite first minutes of songs ever.

So good! Thanks for posting!

For most people, Girl Talk is either a love or hate thing. There doesn't seem to be much middle ground. Liking hip-hop is probably a prerequisite.

mashupbreakdown.com used to have a visulization of Feed the Animals and also one of his All Day album, but it's been down for a while unfortunately.

Love Girl Talk. Love his unabashedly juvenile tendency to sample the most vulgar lyrics.

Interesting how, almost a decade later, this album seems less like a broad sample of fifty years of music and more like a portrait of mid-aughts pop. (That could be the link's visualization talking, though.)
