About Tunnel Club
Taking your time has its advantages. Soaking up all the influences, different styles and slants on music. Not settling for the genre of the moment. Not here just to nod to the sound of now. A sound that is based on getting on for 30 years of devotion to electronic music. Tunnel Club are two electronic musicians from the North East of England who have been gigging and clubbing together since school in the late 80s. From DJing in the early 90s to mid 00s to producing from the late 90s to date, Stephen Key and Graeme Stoker have had a diverse set of musical experiences and loves since being teenagers. Whether it’s the music of the early 90s rave scene, trance, techno, house, garage, breaks, electronica, progressive, the electronic side of the 80s and 90s alternative and indie scenes, this list goes on: it’s all about the music. Making people dance, smile, throw their hands in the air, get lost in the beats or sit back and just enjoy, that’s all it is about. All about the music. And that’s what they’re representing in Tunnel Club. Electronic music that doesn’t try to sit neatly in a pigeon hole. Yes, it draws on influences from all over the place, but it’s not a game of genre Top Trumps and doesn’t try or claim to be anything in particular. Electronic music in its every guise is what turns Stephen and Graeme on and that is what they’re trying to embrace with Tunnel Club. Expect melodies, big kicks and heavy basses. Percussive arrangements with deep breaks. There will be big, long epic tunes that take you on a journey. But also simple, stripped back beats. Whatever comes along in the studio on the day that feels right. The noise from our first album was overwhelmingly positive with plenty of plays from BBC Introducing alongside some feedback from some legends; MARK ARCHER - DJ NEX/ALTERN 8/NEXUS 21 'I was very very pleasantly surprised how good this album is, reminded me a lot of the first Future Sound Of London album Accelerator and it captures that style of 90/91 perfectly, it'll deffo be getting a lot of plays from me!' NICK SHELDON - SHELLEYS/ANTHEMIA 'Full support from me, you've done a great job on this album. I'll be listening again and again getting ready for those Summer vibes and choosing which tracks to play out!' NARC MAGAZINE - 4/5 'A mighty and memorable listen' During 2017 we’ve been curating and performing at our own Northern Exposure parties hosted at various underground venues in our home toon of Newcastle Upon Tyne. 2018 will see us expand on these great events, showcasing local electronic talent and really bringing LIVE electronica back to forefront of peoples clubbing experiences. Come and join us for a jump around some time! We are Tunnel Club. See you down the front
