ChucK is old news in electronic music circles. SuperCollider (http://supercollider.sourceforge.net/) is (I believe) the most popular and well-maintained of these languages. Overtone is just a clojure wrapper around the SuperCollider application. (It's pretty neat too!)

define old news? It's technically newer than SuperCollider by quite a bit. ChucK has a lot of users in the laptop orchestra world.

Even CSound has had resurgence with iOS apps. Likewise with Pd. I'm really liking the haskell based sample player Tidal, that's a lot of fun.
