No, it’s not.  But in terms of style, technical ability of the producer, tightness of the mix, range of song selection, and just straight overall quality there are few differences.

DJ Skarface is a turntablist from Tennesse with an impressive ability to mash-up rock, rap, crunk, and electro.  At times the mix is a bit manic, which is most peoples’ main complaint about Girl Talk.  It also includes quite a few lulls in transition (? which may be intended to delineate tracks), but regardless it is an absolutely worthwhile listen.

Cheers,

After recently discovering Salacious Sound (which is a wonderful website) through an article you posted about Ableton live, I had to send my mix here to show you yet another example of what can be done with Ableton. Much like Girl Talk, this is a Mash-Up mix. Although not quite as technical it captures Girl Talk’s idea but with my own flavor. I utilized close to 100 artists including;
