You know those days when it feels like you can’t concentrate on one solitary item at a time? Your mind jumps from project to project, event to event, in a fraction of a second? While this may only happen when the pressure comes to a breaking point, for the mind of Gregg Michael Gillis this is the key to his brilliance. As the brain behind Girl Talk, his wicked mashups of everything from hip-hop to '90s pop music create a rhythm of their own. When the music first plays through the speakers, the confection of chaos that ensues almost makes you want to turn it off. But don’t! As the music starts to play, your ears start to put those spastic sounds into a unique dance beat that you can’t wait to shake your booty to. With short samples from a multitude of artists, Gillis puts it together for something new entirely. His newest release “Feed The Animals” shows his style of party music in his usual fashionable chaos.
My picks:
So be sure to bring your dancing shoes and your best booty shaking attire. One thing is for certain: it’s bound to be one chaotic, energetic, ADD-ridden dance party.
Girl Talk will be at the Marquee Theater tomorrow night, Wednesday, March 23rd. Tickets are $25. Doors open at 7 p.m.
