its a nice track for sure.. but it's not a new one..

By the Way, the melody is from a movie called "Jabberwocky"

Mmm.. and it's actually under Solar Stone guys' alias, Skyscraper. I have the tune on 12":

12": Skyscraper - Jabberwock, 1999, Deepblue Recordings [12DEEP0299]

A1. Fairytale Mix (8:41)
A2. Comedown Version (5:56)
B1. Nude Mix (8:33)

The melody is indeed from the old movie called Jabberwocky, starred mostly by ppl from Monty Python.. and on Fairytale Mix the vocal part is an excerpt of a poem (written by Lewis Carroll) about the same monster featured also in the movie, called Jabberwocky.

Jabberwocky
(originally from Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, 1872)

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves,
did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
all mimsy were the borogoves,
and the mome raths outgrabe.

Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
the frumious Bandersnatch!

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought,
so rested he by the Tumtum tree,
and stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
the Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
and burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
the vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
he went galumphing back.

And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!
He chortled in his joy.

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
all mimsy were the borogoves,
and the mome raths outgrabe.

Amazing tune all'n'all. I like alot!

The Comedown Version is, in my opinion, the best piece of chillout music Solar Stone have ever created. I should note that the Nude Mix is essentially a dub of the Fairytale Mix, it's just got the poem bit removed. I'd say they're both equally good and work in different ways. Without the sample it's darkly beautiful but the vocals give it a very surreal feel. Some of Solar Stone's best work all around, in fact.
