05 - The Maze (demo)

This is the first part of the protagonist's uncertain, unwanted and underground journey. 
It all starts with a nice walk in the woods on a very ordinary day. You take in the views, you breathe the clean, fresh air, you can feel the power of nature around you. You feel more and more confident that you are doing the right thing, that life is going on just fine.
Suddenly you fall. It is not painful (at first), but it is completely unexpected. There is no reason why should have fallen here and now. And what is even more surprising is that you don't stop falling. You fall through the leaves that cover the forest floor, through layers of earth and stone, down a dark hole. And it simply doesn't stop. And it starts to be painful. You get scratched, stung, cut and bruised. And you're not slowing down. This can't be real, can it? And when will you stop falling?

This time with an alternate mix, which I believe is superior.

01 - The Fall (demo - alternate mix)

That’s it, you hit the floor. No more falling, but a hard, sudden stop. And if that was not enough, the whole pit collapses around you. You’re almost buried under rocks and dirt. You need a minute to come to. And then of course, you realize the situation you’re in. Trapped. And then of course, you start to panic. You manage to pull yourself out of the dirt. But there’s nowhere to go. You try to dig with your hands. You try to push. You try to pull. Nothing works and you get tired. So you slowly stop trying.

Tunnel is a one-man progressive rock/metal project. Each instrumental track is part of a complete narrative describing the journey of an ordinary person through a quite possibly imaginary tunnel and the quest for the exit.

For you tech nerds here's what I use to create this annoying so-called music (not that it matters that much)

- Fender Highway One Telecaster + TH-U
- Squier Affinity Precision Bass + TH-U
- Roland TD 11K + Addictive Drums2
- Midi Keyboard
- MOTU M2
- Reaper

Enjoy
