Illegal Art showcases sampling with Girl Talk, Steinski

Illegal Art, the Illinois imprint dedicated to sample-based music, again wades into legal gray areas with its recently announced winter release schedule, which includes a full-length from mashup virtuoso Girl Talk, esoteric pop projects from Realistic and Oh Astro, and a retrospective that collects the work of sample wizard Steinski. According to label owner Philo Farnsworth (a pseudonymous homage to an oft-forgotten inventor), Illegal Art's quasi-legal catalog pushes artistic and legal boundaries in order to ensure that sampling gets proper respect. "When Weird Al does a parody of someone, it's considered an honor," said Farnsworth. "I hope people are starting to view sampling that way."

According to Farnsworth, the upcoming Girl Talk disc will contain material similar to the kaleidoscopic Night Ripper. Road-tested during recent shows, the highly anticipated new tracks just need to be fine-tuned by the meticulous artist before a final release date is set. On a more historical note, the two-CD Steinski retrospective will contain all three of his landmark Lessons hip-hop mixes with Double Dee in addition to lesser-known later work, including his Nothing to Fear mix, (a Desert Storm-era collage mocking the first President Bush), and a piece reinterpreting audio related to the Kennedy assassination.

We're compiling a studio mashup soundtrack.
