Jagged edges of electronic body music meet fractured breakbeats and off-kilter rhythms, with subtle cinematic color and a propulsive energy that nods to the bold new wave sounds of the ’80s and the adventurous electronic explorations of the ’90s. It’s a space where cheerful euphoria, ecstatic transcendence, and a sense of alienation coexist — a fusion born from transition, friction, and reinvention.

As a versatile live performer, singer, and DJ, Velvet May moves beyond the ordinary, blending experimentation, meticulous sound design, and rhythmic tension that reflects the ever-shifting frontiers of electronic music. His sonic identity is a collision of Industrial grit, evocative Body Music, and raw Rock intensity — an independent form that intertwines psychedelic inflections and breakbeat pulse into its DNA.

The project took shape in late 2018, debuting with Vast As Black Night on his label Tears On Waves, quickly gaining recognition within the underground scene. In 2019, Unknown Bodies followed — its title track carving out a distinct signature: an erotic and infernal narrative of touch, gazes, and surrender.
With Phoebe’s White Skin (2020), Velvet May crystallized his aesthetic — a visceral fusion of 80s/90s raw textures, Cold Wave melancholy, and the physical drive of Body Music. Alongside his solo work, he explored more Punk and Rock-oriented projects, expanding his creative territory.

His live performances — physical, charged, and organic — extend the emotional and sonic architecture of his studio work, translating sound into motion.
In 2024, he released his debut album on Veyl Records, and joined Supplant Band (Stoner Rock, Shoegaze, Alternative Rock) as a vocalist, adding another layer to his creative evolution.

Velvet May’s music is a raw and unfiltered projection of his inner drama — no gloss, no disguise, only the pure tension between beauty and decay, order and chaos.
