Pop enthusiast/mash-up master Gregg Gillis fine-tunes his approach for All Day, a mix that took over two and a half years to craft. Each outing in Girl Talk's discography has followed a steady succession, starting with Secret Diary's microscopic, glitch-based work and becoming progressively less fractured with every release.
With 373 samples in 71 minutes, the songs are so cleverly and seamlessly collaged together that things become practically comical: Ludacris’ “How Low” over Phoenix’s “1901,“ Crooked I’s "Everything" over Neil Diamond’s “Cherry Cherry,” Ice Cube’s ”It Was a Good Day” over Devo’s “Gates of Steel," and Lil Wayne’s “A Milli” over Joe Jackson's "Steppin’ Out" are just a smattering of artists featured in the first few minutes of a single track.
All Day is too playful to be considered mature, but for the first time it feels like a consistent album and there are definite signs of Girl Talk maturing as an artist. Above all, it's a whole lot of fun.
