@Ed: You're welcome & thank you!
@vaisvil: It's an SCI Six Trak. Yamaha CS-series are awesome. I love what Vangelis did with his 70(?). It's all over the Blade Runner soundtrack. Killer stuff.
Thank you for the comments. I don't often comment here anymore but I do want to answer your Rhodes question. I believe Ben uses a Yamaha Motif. The clarinets are real. I'd love to hear your new age version of Stairway - that would be grand!
@ACL: Thank you. I'm quite taken with it myself. I have to remind myself (lest my head get too fat & swollen) that my muse creates these, not I. I simply recreate in the real world what she's singing in my head. :) Thanks for listening.
I had envisioned the title referring to a suicide; however I suppose it could be anything attempted without success. In case you've not sussed it out yet, our friend Elle is not a happy camper.
Some day I'll get around to noting all of the…

Well then, this is a surprise! Thanks to all who have listened & thanks for reading this comment. I must say that this (sigh) is not my favorite track on this album. Give http://alonetone.com/fallingupart/tracks/angry-angel a whirl, or perhaps http://alonetone.com/fallingupart/tracks/cloud-watching or http://alonetone.com/fallingupart/tracks/sylvan-repose
Thanks again!
@oldrottenhead:
You can DO the bump, but I would imagine that this is not the popular song to which to do it. I'd suggest pressing the heart-with-the-little-green-plus-sign button (as did I). And listen 50 times. Yup, that ought to do it. :)
Well, I play this in Fokker 7-limit Just Intonation on the piano and I didn't attempt to try to sing as high as Robert. So that makes the vocals hard to nail right there. And I played it over many times the past 3 days and my voice got worn out…
Nobody can follow Plant, especially on this one, so why even try? I ought to dare my local classic rock station to play this version and tell them I'll stop listening if they won't do it. Heh heh. That'll fix 'em, won't it?
I dig the improv at the end; it makes me think that perhaps I should do my own "New Age" style cover of Stairway. Hmmm.
Here's the Who classic Regged a little.....I was practising this at full volume then realised the window was open so a bit of an impromptu concert going on in the street which would have sounded ok for the main but i'm not so sure the backing…
This is really a true story.
No, really...
And our holiday gift to you & your friends. (Feel free to download it and share it with anyone who you think might enjoy it.)
Oh... by the way... acl is finally waking from a very deep slumber…
I just got Logic Pro X today. This track is the result of my efforts to learn how to use it. It's also the first time I've gotten the guitar and bass out of the closet since I recorded 8-Bit Time Machine.
Very nice. I quite enjoy the progression of moods in this track. It begins sounding as if it's a balls-out rock anthem. I kept waiting for the screamy vocal which never appeared and instead the tune rewarded me with the nice electric piano part brought to the fore. :)
More like a cover of the bauhaus cover of Bowie's song.
Recorded last night in under two hours from starting programming the drums to posting. Recorded for songcrafters.org's Bowie Fest.
Your mention of Bauhaus covering this sent me to YouTube to find a scary young shirtless Peter Murphy singing this. Now that took five seconds off my life, I tell ya.
Um, never mind. Nice cover.
Come as you are, as you were,
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend, ‘cause I want you with me.
Take your time, but hurry up
The choice is yours, don't be late.
Take a rest, as a friend, for a warm memoria
Memoria [x3]
Come to…
crux
i heard my darling snarling
and our little stomachs churning
he said i should be earning
some kind of verbal warning
but i found out in the morning

i heard the pitter-patter

I threw this one together tonite/early am...yawnnnnn. Not an exact replica but always a tribute to Jimi's music. I was originally turned on to do this by some new free vst effects I found on the net. A cool fuzz face vst that is very realistic…
Having more fun with Hendrix. I tried to stay true to the original as far as using no overdubs. Just one guitar, bass, drum and vocal track. Kind of used a mix approach and used a bit from the record and a bit from his live performance in Winterland…
My first thought, honestly, was, oh boy, someone's messing with Jimi again . . . then I pressed play. This one is done with reverence, my friends. Excellent cover. Dig.

Thanks for the nice comments - I am digging the synth!
love the sound of your synth here - reminds me lot of the old CS-10 I once had a very long time ago. http://www.vintagesynth.com/yamaha/cs10.php

*click* Instant fave! I love this! w;-)

@facemask93: Woah! That is a huge compliment! Thank you. Wendy Carlos is one of my massive heroes.
@Wrinkled: Thanks. It's all done on one analog synth, the classic SCI Six Trak. Three other tracks on this album were realized in the same manner. :)
Sounds subliminal, tasty bits of washing synths. nice stuff.
This is so good , reminds me of switched on Bach
I love the melody. w;-)
Very cool! w;-)
Diggin the synths.....nice open feel.
Sinister.....
this is rather nice too though
sorry fallingup, i love this much more than those 3
@slugg: Heh heh. I see what do did there. Thanks for listening!

Hey, this sounds like The Who, Reg. Oh slap my face with a pickle! It IS The Who. It's called a cover. Silly me. Nice "Regging." :)
Ouch. I bumped my head against my monitor while bobbing it in time to the opening riff.
Oh, hahahaha! Genius. ". . . complete with sound effects . . ."
Like the crunchy drums. Box or samples? Also dig the LFO-modulated filter cutoff bass. (At least that's what I think it is!)
Catchy!

Interesting take on a classic Zep chestnut. :)

Heh heh. Great "misheard" lyrics. Of course, I always insisted upon mishearing "memoria" as "mammary, uh!" ;)
Hilarious.
Awesome lyrics. I need to give this another listen soon!
I really like the bit about 1:50. The vocal reminds me a bit of Bowie and early Gabriel.
Ya had me with the first lick. Nice. I love this song and this is a great cover of it. :)
My first thought, honestly, was, oh boy, someone's messing with Jimi again . . . then I pressed play. This one is done with reverence, my friends. Excellent cover. Dig.
Nice nouveau-psychedelic dub, a suitable accompaniment to this strange little poem I've always loved. :)
@slugg: Heh heh. I see what do did there. Thanks for listening!
