My Life Is Over, written by yours truly, Nico Collins, and Nate Cyphert <3

Couch full of strangers in July
but you felt familiar in my mind
Three days we lived in paradise
But the moment that I left your place 
I was dying in a million ways

From all the friction
When you’re missing
I’m up late overthinking 
Wish I could kick your heart out of my hand
But I remember, when I met ya
How good we go together
Electric *oo* I didn’t stand a chance 

With just one look in your eyes
I knew I wouldn’t survive
Cuz now I’m slowly losing my composure 
You say my name
There’s no way I can be saved
My baby oh I swear my life is over 

Uh-oh, X4
Oh I swear my life is over
Uh-oh, X4
Oh I swear my life is over

Fast forward seven months
In the same place still chasing the sun
Say a prayer that the sky don’t fall
Next time you don’t text or call
And I swore I’d never do this to myself
You’re sweet, but it’s hell

From all the friction
I’m missing
Then I go off the deep end 
Wish I could kick my heart out of your hands
*right out of your hands* 
But I remember, when I met ya
How good we go together
Electric baby I don’t stand a chance

With just one look in your eyes
I knew I wouldn’t survive
Cuz now I’m slowly losing my composure 
You say my name
There’s no way I can be saved
My baby oh I swear my life is over 

Uh-oh, X4
Oh I swear my life is over
Uh-oh, X4
Oh I swear my life is over

“Complaint Number 35”

(I was locked out of my SoundCloud Account 08/24/2025 - 10/09/2025)

This song was born from raw frustration and defiance. I had to make it because artists like me—DJ Oracle—often feel powerless, stuck beneath giant music distribution platforms that prioritize profit over the creators themselves. Despite uploading my work with hope, SoundCloud—a cornerstone for so many emerging artists—failed to respond to not one, but 34 complaints, earning a notorious D- rating from the Better Business Bureau. That shock and betrayal is what fueled this anthem.

Right now (08/24/2025), I’m completely locked out of my account. The site instructs me to “reset my password,” but the process loops endlessly. I’ve run out of the “backup codes” SoundCloud once provided. As a result, I’m 100% locked out of my catalog — 110 songs and the fans I worked so hard to build. This song is my way of reclaiming power when the system silences artists.

Every lyric reflects that tension:

Verses expose the cold reality of ghosted artists and an institution that grades trust while abandoning creators.

Pre-choruses climb with righteous anger—“Boom, Boom, I’m going to rock this fucking room”—as I reclaim power.

Choruses and the bridge become stadium-sized chants, turning protest into a communal roar, demanding recognition and refusing to be silenced.

This is more than a song—it’s a rallying cry. It’s about taking back the mic when the system tries to mute us.

Artist vs. Distribution Platforms

Artists are often left with little control. Distribution companies like SoundCloud lock us behind policies—or silence us altogether. Even though they promise “tools” and “connectivity,” the truth is: when complaints pile up, we lose visibility, engagement, and trust. That imbalance is at the heart of this track—because without true access to artists, those platforms collapse into empty promises.

SoundCloud Today: Valuation & Revenue

Even while treating artists like ghost stories, SoundCloud is financially far from broke:

In 2023, SoundCloud generated approximately €288 million in annual revenue — around US $310 million — a year-over-year increase of 7–9%.

For the first time in its history, SoundCloud achieved a positive EBITDA of about €2 million in 2023.

Its valuation has climbed steadily, reaching over US $1 billion in 2023.

So yes—they can be profitable and command massive value—yet still leave artists in the silence. That contrast is exactly what “Complaint Number 35” calls out.

What You Won't

Wake me up when December ends

“Shattered Reflections” is an album built from broken memories, late-night thoughts, and the pieces of yourself you’re still trying to understand. Every track feels like looking into a cracked mirror — seeing your past, your pain, and the versions of you that never fully healed.

This project dives into heartbreak, trauma, self-doubt, and the battle between who you were and who you’re becoming. With haunting melodies and brutally honest lyrics, the album captures the feeling of trying to put yourself back together while still bleeding from the breaks.

It’s raw, vulnerable, and real — a soundtrack for anyone who’s ever felt like their soul was made of shattered glass.

Dying in My Head

This is an unreleased demo from a single set to release in Q1 of 2026. Still in progress (still exactly where I’m at in my life right now).

I started making music again in 2025 after almost 18 years away from it. I used to play in a band in high school and then I walked away from all of it for a 9-to-5. Thinking that chapter was done, I spent YEARS trying to fit into versions of myself that never felt like home.

When I came back to music, I leaned into a modern country lane at first (singer-songwriter vibes, ya know?). But somewhere along the way, I realized the sound that actually feels like me is the one I grew up on: emotional pop-rock, 80s shimmer, atmospheric guitars, and big, cinematic choruses. Sounds that stir up emotions and memories.

“Leap of Faith” is literally what’s happening in my life as I’m typing this. I'm running toward something I walked away from years ago and FINALLY choosing purpose over expectation. It's got arena-leaning drums, alt-rock grit, 80s glow, and a little pop edge. I’m trying to build a sound that’s mine: alt rock…but cinematic…but emotional…but 80s...but pop.

Don’t usually share unfinished things, but learning to put myself out there more. If you found this, I’d love to know what you hear in it.

DJ Oracle | Multi-Genre Music Producer, Songwriter & Festival DJ

If you hear it, I wrote it

My Focus:
Industry says: “Focus on one genre to build a fanbase.”
I say: “I’ll master them all.”

My writing isn't meant to be confined to one playlist category. Every moment is a mood, every lyric is a poem, and every song tells a story. I refuse to limit myself. Writing music across genres isn’t just a skill—it’s my passion. I have no desire to change who I am to meet industry expectations.

Genre = Mood
Lyrics = Poems
Music = Story

Where Am I Today?
I can write in any genre, any language, and on any topic. I have access to any instrument and can create with any vocal style—male or female. But at my core, I am a writer, not an entertainer.
I feel timid stepping in front of a microphone—exposing myself vocally is still a challenge. There are skills to master and fears to overcome before I record my own voice or perform live. But I am comfortable behind the DJ decks.

Where Am I Going?
As I navigate my place in the music industry, my goal is to split my music into three primary genres and sign with labels that align with each sound:

EDM – #SpinninRecords, #Monstercat, #UltraRecords
South Florida Country Pop – #BigMachineRecords, #CurbRecords
Everything Else – TBD

Next Steps for Me:
✔ Write daily and publish new music weekly
✔ Finish EDM albums: #IWantToDestroyYou and #AlicesSonicJourney
✔ Intern with an established DJ – @PhilHarrisMusic
✔ Start publishing behind-the-scenes content
✔ License a song or album to a record label or collaborate with an artist to expose my music and make money

I know social media is necessary, but it’s far outside my comfort zone. Sharing the creative process, the "sauce" behind the songs, feels vulnerable. But I also know that if I want my music to be heard, I need to open that door—even if it’s uncomfortable.

This is my journey. Let’s see where it leads.
