Lost Velvet are a UK duo made up of Robert Butcher and Melissa Morris. Their earlier singles, Endless and Wasted, earned BBC Introducing support and set a tone for what they do best: dark, slow-moving rock with a cinematic streak.
Their new single, Make It Alright, opens in near silence — just a soft guitar line and a faint pad behind it. The vocals come in gently, surrounded by reverb that gives the song its distant, dreamlike feel. It keeps that steady pace throughout, drifting forward without ever breaking the mood. Halfway through, a sharp guitar lead cuts through, giving the track its heaviest moment without tipping it into noise.
It’s a song that stays inside its own mood. Every sound feels chosen, nothing extra added. The production stays open and simple, built on feeling. It sits somewhere between alternative rock and dream pop but doesn’t lean too hard in either direction.
Make It Alright continues Lost Velvet’s run of slow, immersive singles and hints at the larger, mood-driven record they’re building toward.
For sync, it would fit well in dark thrillers, psychological dramas, or films where emotion builds quietly under the surface.
