Petals Have Fallen is the second album by DELS. It was released through Ninja Tune sister label, Big Dada on November 3, 2014 on vinyl, CD and digital format.^[5]

I met most of the people that contributed to this album on MySpace back in 2005. We had a page called “Loners", where myself and the likes of Kwes, Micachu, Ghostpoet, Sampha, Coby Sey, Elan Tamara and others were all featured. We always said that we'd do a proper album together eventually. Petals Have Fallen is probably the closest thing to that happening to date.^[6]
