Theme: “Ready Or Not — K The Messenger Mode (Coz It Feels Easier)” dives into that very human reflex to attack the bearer instead of the message. This drop sits in the tension between truth and avoidance: the temptation to silence what hurts, rather than face what it reveals. The mode here is confession and confrontation at once—naming the urge to “K the messenger,” while still letting the message ring out.

“Classy Slang” depicts an inner outcry carried with reason and pride.
To be honest, there is no such thing as “classy slang.”
This track embodies that contradiction: refusing to become crude, restraining emotion with intellect, yet still trying to let it spill out.
My process begins with imitation, and although I aimed for a soulful feel, unfortunately, I felt it was difficult for me to recreate soul music.
This track is the album version of a single edit scheduled for release next year, with refined sound balance to enhance tension and resonance.

Classy slang(Album ver.)

This track is about my fears of wars.
The world needs to get better.
Love & peace.

Made in December 2025

Dark Wars

desert

Through the open door...

Lyrics

Taking all the answers to the grave 
feeling I am broken in two
the time I had in light and me with you
oh the open door
the open doorway


Taking all the answers to the grave
(there is nothing left that I can do) 
feeling I am broken in two
(now more is needed)
the time I had in light and me with you
(more is needed inside my inside my soul) 
oh the open door
the open doorway

A new song I just made. Might update it and develop it further but quite like it simple. Let me know what you think?

Hope you enjoy it

Dark Town

Bycatch from playing around with new synths and sampler instruments :-) ... perhaps a reflex to the unworthy world events ...... 

Ballet of the Puppeteers

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy. Welcome 2026.

be careful - full of care, care and love, that's all there is

/
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.
