A little Girl Talk-ing on WashingtonPost.com tomorrow

If you're alive, under 50 and capable of aural stimulation, then you've likely wondered how Gregg Gillis, AKA Girl Talk, does it—how he knows Jay-Z's rap was always meant to be heard over the sweet sounds of Radiohead's "Paranoid Android," why he employs beats from Ace of Base's "All That She Wants" to encase Lil Scrappy's "Money in the Bank."

Luckily for you, the smash-up successes of 2006's Night Ripper (#92 on Paste's Best of 2006) and last month's Feed the Animals have garnered interest from a certain mainstream media outlet that gets questions answered.

At 3 p.m. tomorrow, July 29, Gillis will be online at WashingtonPost.com to discuss his willy-nilly sample-mixing and online song-distributing ways. Questions and comments may be submitted before or during the discussion here.
