Name: Right Where It Belongs (Nine Inch Nails Cover) by Jordan Salfity in Acoustic Covers
Duration: 5 min 14 s
Description: A cover of one of favorite songs by Nine Inch Nails, done completely by me on a Taylor acoustic guitar. I used garage band on a Mac computer to record 3 separate tracks. This allowed me to have 1 vocal track with no effects on it, 1 clean sounding guitar track, and one distorted sounding guitar track all at the same time. I hope you enjoy it!

Nice! Where did you make it? I mean program.

A collection of rough recordings made on Garage Band on my computer. 

Acoustic covers done by Jordan Salfity. All "drums" are really the sound of me banging on my guitar. All effects added directly through Garage Band.

Not supposed to be taken too seriously. Were all made for fun. Enjoy.

Acoustic Covers

Our full band cover of the Porcupine Tree classic, "Open Car". This was taken from the "Fusion: The Next Level" live stream that aired on August 29, 2020. 

Porcupine Tree is one of our favorite bands of all time, and we are glad that we have been able to put this cover together. We used to perform this cover live during the early stages of the band, but haven't done it in years. Glad to see that we are not too out of practice with it.

Open Car (Porcupine Tree Cover)

Our full band cover of the Porcupine Tree song "Fear of A Blank Planet." This was a self-made garage recording during the 2020 COVID pandemic. It was partly made to keep ourselves productive during the lockdown, partly made as a thank you to fans of Porcupine Tree who were so kind about our "Open Car" cover, and partly made as a last hoorah with our singer Gasper before he moved across the country.

We previously covered this song years ago at our very first live show with Fernando as our new drummer. We felt it was time to revisit it, and give it the proper treatment. Please feel free to download it, and share it with your friends. We hope you enjoy listening to it, as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Fear of A Blank Planet (Porcupine Tree Cover)

A simple acoustic cover of one of my favorite ballads. Done on a Taylor Big Baby acoustic guitar and recorded through Garage Band on a Mac Book. Wanted to keep it simple. Didn't do any layering, and didn't go back and fix mistakes. This was all done in one take, with some reverb added through the program. That's it.

Dagger (Slowdive Cover)

A cover of my favorite Brand New song, done completely by me on a Taylor acoustic guitar. I used garage band on a Mac computer to record 7 separate tracks. This allowed me to have 3 vocals, 3 guitars, and one percussion all at the same time. I hope you enjoy it!

Jesus Christ (Brand New Cover)

A cover of one of favorite songs by Nine Inch Nails, done completely by me on a Taylor acoustic guitar. I used garage band on a Mac computer to record 3 separate tracks. This allowed me to have 1 vocal track with no effects on it, 1 clean sounding guitar track, and one distorted sounding guitar track all at the same time. I hope you enjoy it!

Right Where It Belongs (Nine Inch Nails Cover)

A cover of my favorite song by The Cranberries, done completely by me on a Taylor acoustic guitar. I used Garage Band on a Mac computer to record 5 separate tracks. This allowed me to have 2 vocals, 2 guitars, and one percussion all at the same time. I hope you enjoy it!

Zombie (The Cranberries Cover)

A cover of my favorite song by Porcupine Tree, done completely by me on a Taylor acoustic guitar. I used Garage Band on a Mac computer to record 5 separate tracks. This allowed me to have 2 vocals, 2 guitars, and one percussion all at the same time. I hope you enjoy it!

About The Band:
El Ten Eleven is a Los Angeles-based instrumental indie rock duo consisting of Kristian Dunn and Tim Fogarty. What separates El Ten Eleven from their peers is that they are only two musicians on stage creating pounding landscapes of sound with no laptops or sequencers. Dunn switches off (sometimes mid-song) between a double-neck bass/guitar and a fretless bass, while his feet dance on an extensive floorboard of looping devices and effects pedals. He plays everything live, loops himself and juggles all the layers of tracks on top of each other. Fogarty switches between traditional acoustic drums, roto toms and electronic drum pads, usually within each song. To add to the insanity, Fogarty will occasionally loop himself as well. The densely textured, atmospheric instrumental sounds of their first two full-length albums (the self-titled debut El Ten Eleven and their follow-up Every Direction Is North) have been praised alongside the work of such post-rock elite as Tortoise, Explosions in the Sky, and Sigur Rós. With their third album, These Promises Are Being Videotaped, the duo took a leap in a new direction more akin to dance-rock envelope pushers Ratatat and Soulwax.


About The Album:
While there isn’t a note of singing to be found on the album, the band’s song titles reveal the breadth of emotions and playfulness found within. “The Sycophants Are Coming! The Sycophants Are Coming!” bursts forth with a nervous tension while the humorlessly named “Marriage Is The New Going Steady” illustrates that an inspired guitar lick can say just as much as words in a love song. Then there’s the aptly titled “Ian Mackaye Was Right,” a nod to the DIY pioneer of Minor Threat and Fugazi fame. "I've had seven record deals, major and indie, it never seemed to work,” bassist Dunn reveals. “As soon as we started doing things on our own is when we found success. That's what that song is about." Like the last two, this LP will be out on their Fake Record Label imprint.

Music video for “The Sycophants Are Coming! The Sycophants Are Coming!” is to be released in early November and then the video for “Falling” will be out in January.

Recent touring includes a 37-show headlining tour across the US through this past September and October. They were supported on the entire tour by Anticon youngster Baths and then also regionally by Dosh (Anticon) and Sister Crayon (Manimal). They sold out shows in NYC, Seattle, SF, DC, Philly, Austin, and San Diego – and then also had very strong (near sell-out shows) in Denver, Chicago, Boston, Portland, and Boise.

Upcoming touring includes New Year’s Eve in Dallas at Trees and a tour of secondary markets in the southwest in January, and then another national tour in the spring.

Upcoming film score to be composed and performed by El Ten Eleven for Urbanized, which is the final installment of Gary Hustwit’s design documentary trilogy. They also did the original score for the first two films of the series (Helvetica and Objectified), both of which prominently featured the music of El Ten Eleven.

Past press includes features/reviews from Spin, Filter, Flaunt, LA Times, Denver Post, The Onion, LA Weekly, The Stranger, SD City Beat, Entertainment Weekly, and more.
