3RD WORLD WAR – The dj monkey Halloween Videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_BCuw70AOs

"DJ Monkey …soul-stirring, excitingly edgy music…just disturbing (read ‘mind-f**king’) enough to demand attention. There is a whole spice rack of auditory flavors here, served up like fractured poetry on a collection of intensely listenable Hallmark cards from Hell."  Bill Margold, Cinema Seen, L.A.
