Thank you very much. I always appreciate it when unwitting accomplices approve.

Drunken monkey? I’m picturing this guy.

I like this a hell of a lot. Fantastically well paced - patiently pushing ahead - and really well balanced sound elements and levels.

Terrific work.

Ah, Drunken Fist kungfu style. I think if they ever do an updated version of Jackie Chan’s Drunken Master, this would be an excellent soundtrack.

Ah, there you go. I should have said Drunken Fist or Drunken Master, then maybe people would recognize the reference. But I have heard Jackie Chan calling it Drunken Monkey, and it googles true.

Hmmm…drunken monkey you say…I’m thinking drunken gorilla or even a larger species, why not King Kong?

This is suggestive and powerful, almost hypnotic. As always, cinematic, evoking lots of associations.

Your pieces always set my imagination working overtime. This does make me think of cages but not monkeys. I was imagining choreography with 3 dancers in a cage performing the same meaningless actions over and over again, like climbing a ladder, looking in a mirror and coming down again. If I had a dance company, I’d be commissioning you non-stop, Speck. Absolutely fascinating and excellent, as usual. xxxx

Do you know what’s funny about the monkey thing - how many stylistic similarities the first minute of this piece has to Jerry Goldsmith’s “Planet of the Apes” score.

The electronic glitches are cool, but I have to say as I listen that I feel like I’m surrounded by drunken robots, not monkeys. :) They have an unstoppable lumbering along quality to them which brings to mind visions of Fritz Lang, not apes. :)

I should have been more specific when I said drunken monkey, or more elaborate. I assumed (I know, never assume.) people knew it was a style of martial arts. One where the practitioner acts drunk, or a little off, but actually he knows just what he’s doing and he’s comin’ at ya, unstoppable. A video demonstration.

I actually knew what you meant, but I had just watched “Toy Story 3” on Sunday and still can’t shake the image of that mechanical monkey. :)

I am not monkeying around when I say I found this to be some deliciously rich glitch that I enjoyed very much! (I realize I totally outed my dorkiness with that awful pun — I just couldn’t help myself.)
