About this album

PHASE 21: Neutral is a 15-song album from NEXT, released in 2020. It's electronic and film score, mysterious, dark and reflective, built on piano, synth and strings. The songs run 86 to 140 BPM, in keys like Bb minor, D minor and F# minor, and they're all instrumental. It's a natural fit for trailers, film and documentary work, TV and news promos and sports. Every song comes with stems (rhythm, piano and drums) and alternate mixes, so it cuts to length without a re-edit.
