The Next Generation

The Next Generation is the seventh studio album by international pop music project, Sweetbox. It is the first album to have Jamie Pineda as front woman after Jade Villalon departed to record under her own name. The release is also the first album to have Derek Bramble as the producer after the producer of the project, Geo, followed Jade Villalon into her releases. The sound that came with the album featured powerful R&B-influenced ballads and upbeat dance genres co-written by Jamie and various writers from all around the globe, including Lindy Robbins, Georgie Dennis, and Derek Bramble. The album also features the element Sweetbox is known for — the mixing of sampled classical music with pop. "We Can Work It Out" sampled Vivaldi's "Four Seasons". "Crash Landed" sampled Bach's "Toccata & Fuge in D minor". "Magic" sampled Beethoven's "Symphony No. 9". In addition, a new version of "Everything's Gonna Be Alright" was recorded, featuring Jamie Pineda and Derek Bramble, with re-written lyrics. The album was well received in Japan and had success in Korea.
