Beijing 🏆🥇🥇 - Xinzàng Zài Tiàodòng

[Intro / Verse 1]
Smoked my last cigarette, sat in bed for a while.
Thought of your face, and that brought me a smile.
Wanted another one. Fell back asleep, instead.
Woke and found you sitting there on the bed.
I fell for you, baby, like a bomb
Now my love’s gone up in flames
[Chorus]
Cigarette, cigarette,
Burning up time.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Watch the smoke climb.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Wasting away.
Just like this cigarette, our time is running down.
Only one hour ‘til you’re leaving this town.
[Verse 2]
Went to the corner store, bought us another pack.
Held my arm around you as we headed back.
I tried to change your mind. Didn’t want you to go.
I want you more, it seems, than you could ever know.
We’re history, baby, read it in a book
It ended in the fire that started with a look
[Chorus]
Cigarette, cigarette,
Burning up time.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Watch the smoke climb.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Wasting away.
Just like this cigarette, our time is running down.
Only one hour ‘til you’re leaving this town.
[Verse 3]
My head is full of smoke, heart full of pain
That tender love is gone, gone up in flames
You should have shot me, baby, my life is done
You could have shot me, baby, shot me with a gun
I hear those sirens scream my name
I know my love is gone up in flames
[Bridge]
Smoked my last cigarette, sat in bed for a while.
Thought of your face, and that brought me a smile.
I fell for you, baby, like a bomb
Now my love’s gone up in flames
[Outro / Chorus]
Cigarette, cigarette,
Burning up time.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Watch the smoke climb.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Wasting away.
Just like this cigarette, our time is running down.
Only one hour ‘til you’re leaving this town.
My head is full of smoke, heart full of pain
That tender love is gone, gone up in flames
You should have shot me, baby, my life is done
You could have shot me, baby, shot me with a gun
I hear those sirens screamin’, screamin’ my name
I know my love is gone, gone up in flames

Smoke and Flames

This piece contemplates the paradox of affection: how distance can create attraction, and coldness can ensnare the heart. It's a meditation on the fading glory of calculated romance and the timeless dance between genuine feeling and artful seduction.
Perfect for reflective moments.

Cycles - Spring

This is the Vocalite's journey to the stars.

After the first two parts, this track brings the short sci-fi saga 
about this enigmatic race to a close for now. If you're interested, 
there may be more tracks featuring them.

But, back to the Story:

In a distant nebula of sound, the Vocalites were born. They were not bodies, but voices — pure streams of tone and color drifting through the cosmos. Each Vocalite carried a unique resonance: some bright and crystalline, others deep and warm like starlight filtered through dust. Together they shaped a single track, a living composition woven out of their shared energy and their shared purpose.

This track was about shaping the Vocalite’s energies and pursuing a common goal.
They wanted to build a bridge of harmony that could be heard across galaxies, a beacon for every lost signal and lonely echo in the void.

The universe was not silent. From the dark between stars, galactic dissonances emerged — harsh, fractured tones that sliced through the music. They twisted harmonies, bent notes out of tune, scattered the Vocalites into distant corners of the track. For a moment, it seemed the song would dissolve into chaos.

The Vocalites were not afraid. Undeterred, they listened for each other in the static. A single tone rose — a soft, solitary note calling out into the noise. Another answered. Then another. Little by little, the scattered voices found each other again, their frequencies aligning like stars returning to a constellation.

They gathered energy with every reunion. Each Vocalite stepped forward with its solo voice — clear, fearless, and unmistakably its own. One by one, their solos cut through the dissonance, not by destroying it, but by reshaping it. The harsh tones bent, softened, and eventually folded into the greater harmony.

Thanks  for your inspiration and support.

Velvet Queen (remake)

“Systém nefunkční” is a hypnotic electronic track rooted in minimal rave, witch house, and machine-driven dance aesthetics. Built around rigid rhythms, distorted drums, and compressed robotic vocals, the song unfolds like a malfunctioning system report from a collapsing artificial intelligence.

The lyrics function as command lines and error states, repeating cycles of failure, reboot, and brief moments of functionality. As data is erased and rewritten, meaning slowly dissolves, creating an atmosphere of tension, instability, and ritualistic repetition. The track moves between breakdowns and power surges, capturing the feeling of a machine trapped in an endless loop—alive, but never fully stable.

This track blends human songwriting with AI-assisted sound design.
All lyrics, vocal phrasing choices, and creative direction were developed by Olja Arthur.
The result is a unique artistic expression shaped by emotion, atmosphere, and storytelling. The style blend Style: minimal rave, skeletal witch house, alien carnaval rhythm rave, machine chant, syntwave, dance, Voice: robotic, monotone, compressed, drums is tort led, Tempo: 128–148 BPM

Olja Arthur is a Czech electronic music creator based in Southern Moravia.
His musical journey began in the late 80s, when he worked as a DJ under the name Arthur, performing at village parties, dance halls, bars and night venues. Those early years shaped his love for melody, rhythm, and the shared joy of music.

Throughout his life, he worked in many fields — from aircraft maintenance and military service, to production control, web development and video creation. Yet music always stayed close, waiting for the right moment to return.

In recent years, he found a new creative spark through collaboration with AI — allowing him to transform memories, emotions, humor, imagination and personal stories into sound.

More than 390 songs released in under a year — created intuitively, from the heart, without calculation.
Music here is freedom, joy, memory and escape — a quiet celebration of being alive.
