About this album

PHASE 5 : Drones is a 21-song album from NEXT, released in 2019. It's electronic and drone music, mysterious, dark and tense, built on synth, bass and sound effects. The songs run 86 to 156 BPM, in keys like D minor, G minor and C minor, and they're all instrumental. It's a natural fit for film and documentary work, TV and news promos, trailers and commercials. Most songs come with stems (drones, pads and piano) and alternate mixes, so it cuts to length without a re-edit.
