The Music
Big Songs with Big Themes.
Alternative anthems for those who’ve lived, loved, evolved—and aren’t done yet.
Synths and guitars with a nostalgic edge built for NOW.
Think The Killers meets Depeche Mode with the weight of U2 and the polish of Duran Duran.
Music powerful enough to reset the nostalgic clock.
Musical Gravitational Pull:
Depeche Mode, Muse, The Killers, The National, Bleachers, Editors, White Lies, and U2.

What’s Next?
What’s Next? is the first song by Reduction in Force.
Of course it is.
What’s Next? wrestles with the realization that your Second Act has always been your First Love. That moment when you’re done with the walls of your own identity. It’s about feeling - it’s time.
What’s Next? screams yup, you are completely exposed, but makes it clear that it is the only path forward.
So, embrace the unknown, trust what you’ve built, take a breath, put your head down, crank it up and break the F*&%!ing walls down of whatever your “NEXT” might be.
Reduction in Force is joined by Producer, Alex Aldi (Passion Pit, Dreamers, Goo Goo Dolls), whose production catapults the song years beyond what would have ever been possible during RiF’s First Act.
A match sealed by a passion for the anthems of their back catalogue and the desire to bring them to life through a new lens.
ANTHEMIC ALTERNATIVE ROCK
The best music ever.
It makes you think. It lifts you up. It challenges your assumptions—musical and otherwise. It surprises you, every time. Never boring, never safe.
This is the center of the sun. This is the sound I’m chasing.
We went dark. We went wide. We went beautiful and sleazy and loud and weird. We put gods next to ghosts.
And then we ended it with “Sexy Boy.”
Not as a joke. As a flex.
Because the rules?
They exist until we decide they don’t.
And the result is exactly what you feel right now:
“Holy shit. These dudes are brilliant. And they’re right.”
GUEST PLAYLIST- BRIAN DULAC
Brian and I go back all the way to Freshman year in college. He knows music, good music. Peep this - as he is apt to say. What’s Next? is lovingly wrapped inside. Like an alt rock bear hug.
