Minotaur Project is the musical journey of french-hungarian bassist/composer Matt Gabnai, writing a sort-of fusion metal music with an enormous variety of classical and jazz influences, often themed on literature, mythology, movies, or his own experiences. He started to play bass at the age of seventeen, but music quickly turned out rather a lifestyle for him, than just a hobby. After finishing his years in the local contemporary music school he was a bassist for Budapest-based metal group My Small Community, co-founder of the blues group Peef-Poof Project, and was also known for his work as a sound engineer. In 2010, as he decided to move to Strasbourg, France, and beside joining the heavy-metal group Mystery Blue, the long-waited distribution of his own music -Minotaur Project- has begun, with only a handful of aims to achieve: to provide music with an uncompromised quality of his influences, and to invite as many of his friends and favourite musicians to play with him as possible. Since 2011 he's one of the west-European endorsers of Prolude Amplification.

Story behind the song
The story of this video is that the guy who first gave me the idea to make videos of my songs came out with a "songwriting challenge" (sort of...), in which he proposed his drum tracks to be used to create a new, original song. Since it was about time for me to compose new material (and my latest isn't exactly finished yet), I decided to jump on the idea, so this song is made for the contest. Cobus Potgieter was a drummer I always wanted to play with, and even that I'm after my long journey (1300km) to find a new home, I am still too far to make it happen. Now I got the chance. His recording was made as a cover for Breaking Benjamin's I Will Not Bow, he played drums over that song. I turned it into something else, something I'd rather call my style. Something Minotaur-like, as usual :)
