This episode was an interesting challenge to write music for. Following the show as it transitions to a more serious tone. Allowing the music to mature, while making sure it still feels like Monkey Wrench

It’s still Monkey Wrench, but it’s a side to the show you maybe didn’t expect when you started

here's my roughs for Monkey Wrench episode 5! This became one of my all-time favorite animation gigs yet. It was a rare moment to try my hand at drama instead of comedy and reminded me of why I love this job, despite everything. 💖

Huge thanks as always to @zeurel.bsky.social for the opportunity!

correction: i forgot I had also pitched something else back in 2022 lol, but this recent pitch was my first time getting a positive response so I'm still considering it its own unique win. XD

oh dang, nice to see some love for this film here, i just rewatched it earlier this year! Was also impressed by how well it had aged. Jason and Filmcow as a whole have always been inspirational to me for their creative and honest stuff.
