About this album
PHASE 136: Urgent Percussion is an 11-song album from NEXT, released in 2026. It's trailer music and film score, built on drums, synth and percussion. The songs run 55 to 155 BPM, in keys like Am, Fm and Em, and they're all instrumental. It's a natural fit for crime, true crime, action and thriller. Most songs come with stems (drones, pulses and strings) and alternate mixes, so it cuts to length without a re-edit.
