Welcome to Issue 30 of TJPL News Magazine, where independent music isn't just celebrated — it's redefined. This landmark edition turns the spotlight on Lost Velvet, the dream-pop visionaries behind ENDLESS — a swirling, shadow-kissed album that explores emotional liminality with cinematic depth.


From distorted dreams to crystal-clear clarity, ENDLESS traverses soundscapes drenched in longing, liberation, and layered nostalgia. With shimmering synths, shoegaze-inflected guitars, and lyrics that speak in whispers and screams, Lost Velvet craft more than music — they build a sonic world you fall into.

🎧 "We don’t just write songs — we make portals." – Lost Velvet

🎙 Janet Devlin – Grief, Growth & Grit

A raw and healing dialogue on loss, inner strength, and what it means to show up through the silence. Janet strips back the veil in a piece that’s part interview, part confessional.
