RYLAI Drops Alternative Indie-Pop Single “Fall For You” — Two Years in the Making

Rising alternative and indie-pop artist RYLAI just released his new single, “Fall For You,” a track that leans into the rock realm and showcases a process that took over two years to complete. 

This marks his second single since debuting this past June, following “Without You.” Built from the ground up as a passion project, “Fall For You” is a true grassroots production. RYLAI not only directed the entire production but also laid down many of the song’s core elements himself. Four musicians, from three different continents, came together to bring it to life: RYLAI and Liner from Korea, Dylan from America, and Faekt from Hungary.

The track is filled with rich guitar layers: Dylan contributed acoustic textures and atmospheric effects, Faekt handled the overdrive guitar (including a bold double-octave technique), and Liner delivered the bulk of the remaining parts, even coming up with melodies for sections like the intro, outro, and verse three. RYLAI himself added additional guitar layers and took charge of comping, timing, and producing the final parts.

Instrumentation didn’t stop there; the song uses two different basses (Faekt and Dylan split duties), Moog-driven synths, re-recorded drums (with some demo elements surviving the final cut), and massive vocal stacks that ballooned to 92 tracks by the end. Faekt also directed standout moments like the crowd vocals and harmonies, while RYLAI handled the intricate ad-libs, background vocals, and vocal production, with Colby fine-tuning the crowd vocals and doublings. 

The result? A track that feels alive: raw, layered, and deeply collaborative. “Fall For You” may not have a major label machine behind it, but it’s the kind of record that reminds listeners what can happen when passionate artists from around the world come together with nothing but their love for music. As RYLAI puts it: “Four guys, three continents, two years, and one song we poured everything into. Will the world feel what we felt making it? I guess we’re about to find out.”
