I am really bummed that Girl Talk will not be performing this year. Does anyone know if there are any other artists that are similar that will be at Coachella this year?

I hear Girl-talk + Super Mash Bro's are playing the same weekend of Coachella in North Hollywood. You should go to that instead of Coachella
Z-Trip is a mash-up artist, pretty similar in style to GT

Don't be bummed! There are a lot of great acts... Just randomly google (or torrent) some attractively named artists from the lineup!
Whore!
That was good.

Girl talk is an amatuer version of 2manydjs.
2manydjs CLOWNS on girl talk.
I just wanted to say that Girl Talk was super OUTRAGEOUS and so much fun last year. My band of ladies and I got down with Gareth and Neil from Los Camesinos! it was an absolute blast. I hope all you haters were having fun listening to minimalist techno or deep house or whatever you're into, but it seemed like most of the people in the tent were having a great time.
As for similar acts. I think most people are on target when they say Z-Trip and 2manydjs, but all 3 have their differences.
Girl Talk certainly does not have the skillz that soulwax or ztrip have, in the traditional sense, but when he is on, for my money they can't touch him. Just a lot more sheer joy and energy. Everyone has different taste, but Girl Talk is unique. That being said, if you like Girl Talk jiggawatt, ztrip and 2manydjs will blow your mind.
Girltalk's set last year was FUN. I'd rather not have repeats year to year too much though. I'm super excited about Z-Trip this year.

For the record I do like hearing one hit wonders jammed into one another, at least the way Girl Talk does it. Thanks for the input guys. I am looking forward to z-trip and too many djs.
He may not be as good as 2 many DJs, but I still love Girl Talk!
I'll add Craze, Klever, and Diplo (Major Lazer) to the list of djs that will please the ears of those who enjoy girltalk. less mashups/party jams and obviously more emphasis on the turntablism aspect but I would deff check them out if you are into girltalk. On top of 2manydj's and z-trip of course.
PS. how ridiculous was it for them to have Peanut Butter Wolf and Girl Talk overlap last year?
I wish Girl Talk was on the line up this year too. yes. REALLY. But if you are looking for some serious debauchery similar to what he provides, make sure you are there for Major Lazer and Diplo's set.
I'm not a Lurker I just Lurk a lot.
