Ready or Not — Healthy Processing (When People Are Losing It)

single 5 of
Ready Or Not — Here We Are (The Therapy Sessions)
https://soundcloud.com/fictionalive/sets/ready-or-not-here-we-are-the-therapy-sessions-10-tracks-or-more

A bit of background:

Yes, it is bizarre – and it has a name: emotional invalidation.

​What is happening here
Emotional invalidation is when someone tells another person their feelings are wrong, exaggerated, or unjustified, instead of trying to understand them.
​
That includes judging happiness itself, like implying “you shouldn’t feel this happy,” which attacks the person’s inner experience rather than engaging with reality.

​Why it feels so absurd
Happiness is, at its core, a deeply personal response to one’s own values and life, not a public referendum others get to vote on.
​
Arguing about whether someone is “allowed” to feel happy reveals more about the critic’s discomfort, envy, or worldview than about the validity of the other person’s joy.

Friendship for All – or Not (We’ve Got Means)

"Friendship for All – or Not (We’ve Got Means)" looks at Western talk of exporting “freedom” and “democracy” and asks what actually arrives on the ground.​

This track moves between promises of friendship and the quiet threat of sanctions, interventions, and military power – the message behind the smile: either you give us what we want, or we take it anyway, we’ve got means.

Friendship for All – or Not (We’ve Got Means)

The light is fading....

Lyrics

the hours I had waited for the chance

wait all alone the any hour

always get the chance

oh there is nothing left to me I cannot

see the light in me is flickering out

oh the light in me is flickering out

I decided to expand this a little. 

I hope you enjoy it and please feel free to leave a comment as your feedback is greatly appreciated and helpful.

Take a Chance

Old Textures - A Night At The Cloud in 1935 (Can't Figure To Finish)

Wish I could listen to the song with you, with a nice glass of wine in hand, and a cheers to our adventures here.

Intro:

Ninety years of sound—echoes of jazz horns, the crackle of vinyl, the pulse of analog synths, and the shimmer of digital waves.
A flicker of a Marx Brothers’ gag, the whisper of a film noir monologue, the ghost of a protest chant, the hum of a city at midnight.
A journey—where melodies from forgotten radios and shows dance with the ghosts of futures yet to come.
Press play, close your eyes, and let the textures carry you through time.

Old Textures - A Night At The Cloud in 1935 (Can't Figure To Finish)

The meaning of this track goes back to my childhood.
The thumbnail image for this track is an edited image based on a photo of me as a boy.

I took piano lessons from an early age, but as I got busier with sports club activities, I quit. From there, my piano skills quickly faded away. I lost my musical foundation—and along with it, my confidence.
Later, in high school, I jumped on the trend and started playing guitar on my own, but I failed there too. With skills that barely counted as a foundation, I joined a school festival band, and after that experience, I stopped practicing guitar altogether.
(Years later, I would meet teachers for guitar and DTM, and that’s when I started practicing again.)

All of these experiences chipped away at my confidence.
And yet—even back then—I loved music. I was always listening, earphones in, living as a listener.

At some point, a question began to grow inside me:
Because I lack fundamentals, does that mean I’m not allowed to enjoy music?
Is only music that’s neatly polished and perfectly finished worthy of praise, while music full of passion—despite being clumsy—is dismissed as nothing more than “random noise”?

My music has no solid foundation. I can create music along chord progressions to some extent, but relying heavily on chords feels like returning to the idea that “music must be done this way”—a rigid, widely accepted notion that reminds me of my classical piano days. That’s why I don’t like excessive use of chord progressions.

Music should be more than just something clean and pretty.
Even with unrefined skills, having the courage to express yourself matters more than anything. The act of expression itself carries deep meaning. And even if someone laughs and says, “That track isn’t worth listening to,” my belief—the one I’ve just described—becomes my driving force.

This track speaks for exactly that.
Even if it’s rough. Even if it’s dirty, even stained.
It holds onto something essential: my own will.

Thank you for taking the time to read all of this.
And thank you for listening to the track

How Many Snipes — Many Mics (Till The Last Beat)

2025 - the year hope was almost lost

an excerpt, remixed, of:

‘You’re saying that children get shot by SNIPERS’ — ‘Definitely!’ (How Many Mics?)

https://soundcloud.com/fictionalive/youre-saying-that-children-get

Song Description:
/
The American orthopedic surgeon Dr. Mark Perlmutter, who volunteered in a Gaza hospital, stated with uncompromising clarity: Israeli army snipers deliberately target and kill Palestinian children. He described seeing young bodies marked by impossibly precise sniper fire — shots so accurate no toddler could be hit twice by mistake by the so‑called “world’s best snipers.” He confirmed having photographic evidence, spoke of children executed at close range, and recounted injuries so cruel they defy comprehension. His testimony is an unflinching record of systemic targeting — crimes against humanity carried out in plain view. This is an eternal shame, a page of history written in innocent blood.

let me break it down for you - all tracks are handcrafted

/
An artist is someone who creates or expresses ideas, emotions, or visions through a chosen medium, aiming to communicate, inspire, or evoke a response.

This definition embraces all forms of creativity—visual, musical, literary, or performance—and emphasizes the purpose of connection and expression rather than formal titles or external validation.

Brain Hop

Brain Hop is a musical genre invented by the artist FICTIONALIVE on Monday, December 1st, 2025, at 1:24 PM. The genre seeks to bring depth, intellect, and philosophical reflection into contemporary music, emphasizing thoughtful lyricism, conceptual frameworks, and cognitive engagement across styles. Brain Hop differentiates itself from much mainstream music by prioritizing meaningful content, complex themes, and a cerebral approach to structure, rhythm, and sound design.

The creation of Brain Hop responds to the perception that a lot of current music leans heavily on surface-level entertainment while neglecting intellectual and existential depth. It aims to provide an artistic space where artists explore profound social, political, and existential issues through innovative production and poetic or experimental vocal delivery. Brain Hop can interact with hip-hop, electronic, pop, or experimental traditions, but is defined above all by its focus on ideas and reflection rather than by any single beat pattern or instrumentation.

​As of its inception, Brain Hop is positioned as an emerging genre within underground and alternative music scenes, promising to attract listeners and creators who value music that stimulates both mind and soul.
