About this album
PHASE 106: Melodic Pulse is a 17-song album from NEXT, released in 2025. It's electronic and film score, built on bass, synth and pulse. The songs run 86 to 160 BPM, in keys like D minor, G minor and F# minor, and they're all instrumental. It's a natural fit for investigation, crime, thriller and reality tv. Every song comes with stems (pulses, bass and percussion) and alternate mixes, so it cuts to length without a re-edit.
