1) The German rave band Dune. The band was founded in 1995 by Oliver Froning and Jens Oettrich, who are both big fans of the novels by Frank Herbert - hence the name Dune. Their first single "Hardcore Vibes" featured the voice of Oliver's then 11-year-old cousin Janine. Their second single "Are you ready to fly?" sounded quite different and already featured the typical Dune-style with high-pitched vocals and a catchy melody.
At the end of 1996 the band released the album "Forever" with a lot of tracks in a classical style - all tracks where performed together with the London Session Orchestra (see Dune & the London Session Orchestra). Lead singer Verena von Strenge left Dune after the release of "Forever" to start a solo career. Dune came back in April 1998 with a new lead singer (Vanessa Hörster). The single "Keep the Secret" was only a medium success and its successor "Electric Heaven" flopped completely.
In late 1999 Verena von Strenge came back as lead singer after her solo career was not as successful as she wanted it to be. The single "Dark Side of the Moon" was released and the album "Reunion" was produced and ready for release in May 2000. However the album was never released due to a court order that stopped the single "Heaven".
The latest single released was "Rainbow To The Stars 2003", a rework of their 1996 classic. It was released on 23 June 2003.
2) A Finnish demoscene tracker musician who adopted the more unique name Brothomstates in the latter half of the 1990s and was later signed to Warp Records.
3) Dune was also an Alias used by Drum & Bass Dj/Artist Ray Keith in the early 1990s.
4) An Indiana-based musician who recorded an album called "Road of Life" in 2000.
5) An Australian power/progressive metal band that is now disbanded. The band only recorded a demo called The Eleventh Hour.
8)Duo made of Laurent Garnier and Pascal F.E.O.S. (Pascal Dardoufas). Released one EP: The Alliance EP: Trance, Ambient style electronic.
9) Four friends from Athens, Ohio, finally came together to form DUNE in 2011. Influenced by their favorite acts (Sabbath, Kyuss, QOTSA, Sword, Truckfighters), DUNE's brand of stoner metal has various undertones--everything from soul to thrash. You can find them on Bandcamp.
10) The progressive sludge/stoner metal Dune formed in recent years in Edinburgh, Scotland. They recently released their first EP entitled 'Progenitor'. You can find them on bandcamp here:

Am i a saint?

The lyrics of Dúné's song "Never Be Alone" touch upon themes of self-reflection, personal freedom, and the power of human connection. The opening lines, "Am I a sinner? Am I a saint?" suggest a sense of internal conflict and questioning of one's own moral character. The singer finds it difficult to relate to the world around them and expresses disbelief in their own experiences.
The line "I see a brave new world, but you know, I can't relate to this" highlights a feeling of alienation and detachment from society. The singer struggles to reconcile their perception of the world with their own personal beliefs and values. They yearn to break free from this disconnect but are uncertain if it is possible.
The lyrics emphasize the importance of individual agency, suggesting that personal change and growth must start within oneself. "But it starts with me, ends with us" suggests that while personal transformation is necessary, true connection and unity can only be achieved when individuals come together.
The chorus reinforces the idea of seeking personal liberation and the willingness to embrace the unknown. The desire to "go get lost tonight" represents a longing for freedom from societal expectations and a willingness to take risks. The line "We're on our own, but not alone" underscores the importance of finding solace and support in the company of others, even when pursuing individual paths.
The repeated refrain of "If you open your eyes, you will never be alone" serves as a powerful reminder that true connection and understanding can be found when one opens themselves up to the world. The lyrics encourage self-awareness and the recognition that personal growth comes from embracing the world around us.
In summary, "Never Be Alone" examines the internal struggle for self-identity and the desire for personal growth and connection. It emphasizes the importance of self-reflection, personal agency, and the transformative power of human relationships. The song encourages listeners to open their eyes, step outside of their comfort zones, and embrace the possibilities of a world where loneliness can be overcome.
