About this album

Chapter 19: Unnerving Textures is a 29-song album from VITAL, released in 2023. It's electronic and drone music, dark, mysterious and tense, built on drone, synth and sound effects. The songs run 86 to 150 BPM, in keys like G minor, E minor and A minor, and they're all instrumental. It's a natural fit for trailers, film and documentary work, TV and news promos and sports. Most songs come with stems (strings, percussion and pulses) and alternate mixes, so it cuts to length without a re-edit.
