Monkey Brain Soup For The Soul is an instrumental on Dimes.

The song is comprised of interpretations of several leitmotifs from the Monkey Island game soundtracks, specifically Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge.

Leitmotifs

A list of approximate timestamps from the song paired with the appropriate leitmotifs from the Monkey Island 2 game (note: these names are unofficial and come from this YouTube video by VengefulChip, as the game's songs do not have official titles):

0:18 - Intro

1:12 - You're in Big Trouble Now

1:40 - Cemetery

2:18 - Stan's Previously Owned Coffins

2:54 - On the Cruise Ship

3:18 - Found the Sunken Galleon!

3:55 - Story

4:51 - Meeting LeChuck

Trivia

  • Starting at around 4:30, a drum loop appears; it is taken from the sample CD Zero-G Datafile One (fourth breakbeat in the breakbeat section), which itself samples Monk Higgins' One Man Band (Plays All Alone).
  • According to Neil, the total editing time of this song was 30 hours. Though he doubts that most of that time was spent actually modifying the song.
  • This song was submitted to OC ReMix in 2002.[1]
