About this album
PHASE 30 : Darker Dark is an 18-song album from NEXT, released in 2020. It's electronic and drone music, dark, mysterious and tense, built on drones, synth and sound effects. The songs run 85 to 122 BPM, in keys like G minor, Eb 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. Most songs come with stems (piano, strings and pulses) and alternate mixes, so it cuts to length without a re-edit.
Every track is cleared and licensed through ITGM, with the rights handled for you. See how it works on our music licensing page, or search the full catalog by mood, reference track or video at /music.
