Stolen Velour - Underlight (2026)

Building upon their debut EP Holdfast, Underlight is the second release from Stolen Velour, FLOCO, and Aria SL with Bristol-based label Illegal Data. A careful negotiation between live performance and club functionality, the album weighs heaviest on nomadic interactions with technology, envisioning a harmonious dynamic between the virtual and material worlds. By pairing Aria SL’s operatic vocals with FLOCO’s amorphous violin and Stolen Velour’s formidable club production, the trio reimagines their hardware-driven origins with digital precision and party utility.
The three artists carry significant weight across the UK’s electronic and contemporary classical landscapes. Stolen Velour has seen support from Aphex Twin and Boiler Room; FLOCO’s work has been championed by BBC Radio 3 and 6 Music; and Aria SL has performed at the Southbank Centre and Paris Fashion Week. With a collective pedigree including releases on labels like LOFS, Kindergarten, and Slow Dance, Underlight marks a definitive sharpening of their blurred approach to club and classical music.
