Falling You (John Michael Zorko, with the vocals of Dru Allen, Aimee Page, Jennifer McPeak, Sara Ayers, Krista Tortora, Victoria Lloyd, Erica Mulkey and others) is known for ethereal, emotive music—music best heard when the moon is high and the atmosphere, serene.

Known for fusing dark ambient soundscapes with darkly beautiful female vocals, Falling You speaks a melancholy, yet hopeful language, recognizable to all. If the lifeless moon could sing of the blue-green world it orbits, it might sound something like this.

"... The instrument selection is nearly perfect, each perfectly tuned and tended to, each emission perfect in tone, cadence, and coincidence. Each timbre of the goddesses' voice breathtaking. I am at a loss of creative abstractions, I must demote to primal descriptors. Every cliche I could concieve would not decrease the sensuality of this piece; it's beauty—haunting in its ability and composition, hunts the soul" —D. Taylor Singletary, Gods Of Music

"This is simply a stunningly beautiful track. The engineering is some of the best I have ever heard, in any genre, at any level. The piano is beautifully EQ'd, giving it a muffled but thoroughly haunting tone. The synth work is so delicate and sublime that I had to listen several times to really hear it all. The reverb sounds almost like it is in a positive feedback loop, which gives the wash a life of its own, almost as if it were an additional musician playing along. This is utter brilliance.

And the vocals! Aimee Page croons a lush evocative vocal line that reminds me of a cross between Michael Stipe's 'voice as an instrument' approach and the luscious ethereal vocals of Lisa Gerrard—with a dose of Bjork-quirkiness. Aimee's vocals are captured spectacularly, with deep reverb that seems to spread out like ripples on a pond. Just gorgeous."—ambient artist Palancar, reviewing "March Thirty-One."
