Duty Mouth

Code MonkeyLast night I caught a set by the enormously talented singer-songwriter-smartass Jonathan Coulton, at a small club in Brooklyn. He's best known for a couple of songs from his sprawling catalog: "Code Monkey," an anthem for computer programmers, for whom he seems to be some kind of lay patron saint, and "Skullcrusher Mountain," a love song from the viewpoint of a Dr. Moreau-style (but much hipper) mad scientist.

The man's got stage chops to spare, but what I didn't know until I banged around his web headquarters today is that he's a techno mix and mash sensei.

And lo and behold...here's something fun from Coulton's download site that was just meant to be shared here.

(The song will download automatically in QuickTime, but you have to click Play.) Big fun.
