About this album

PHASE 23: Pulses is a 15-song album from NEXT, released in 2020. It's electronic and atmospheres, dark, mysterious and tense, built on synth, sound effects and percussion. The songs run 88 to 168 BPM, in keys like C minor, E minor and D 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 (drones, pulses and drums) and alternate mixes, so it cuts to length without a re-edit.
