The Cage is an album caught between light and shadow – a collection of songs that breathe both intimacy and grandeur. Minimalist guitar and piano motifs intertwine with warm cello lines, carried by hypnotic beats and wide, cinematic soundscapes. The sound moves between trip-hop, indie and alternative – at times fragile as a whisper, at others soaring and eruptive.

The lyrics circle around love in the face of collapse, around longing, and the feeling of being trapped while still carrying hope within. Each track opens its own space: from melancholic floating ballads to dark, urban trip-hop grooves.

With The Cage, Velvet Petals deliver a work that feels both vulnerable and powerful – a soundtrack for sleepless nights, moments of solitude, and the quiet triumph of loving against all odds.

Ghost Notes

Groove with the German Soul and Pop sounds of Samtblüten.
Rock out with the Alternative and Indiepop vibes of Velvet Petals.
Get lost in the Club, Trip-Hop, and Electronic landscapes of Calalga Beats.
Move to the Brazil Funk and Afrobeat grooves of Téo Fortes — music born between Paraty and Spain’s Costa Blanca, blending protest, passion, and rhythm.
Dive into dark urban drift with Tyranny Drift — haunting Phonk and dystopian beats for the night.
Feel the fire of Latin EDM with Nayrix, bold, sensual, and unapologetically catchy.
Float in expansive ambient soundscapes with Lemmon A6, where stillness and motion meet.

New Signings:
Kimpituy proudly welcomes Nayrix and Lemmon A6 to the family — two unique sonic identities: one born for the dancefloor, the other for inner space.
