"Retaliatory Action” is a dry, character-driven country/Americana track about a group loosely planning some kind of vague payback. Open to interpretation.

Retaliatory Action

A quirky, upbeat alt-rock track blending funky grooves, surreal lyrics, and deadpan vocals. With talk-sung verses, mariachi-style trumpet bursts, and a satirical take on everyday chaos, it’s a playful anthem for anyone holding it together while everything around them gets weird. For fans of ironic storytelling, groove-heavy riffs, and musical oddballs who don’t take life too seriously.

Generally Fine (But Specifically Strange)

「iPhone無いと死ぬ」
言葉と音の境界を曖昧にし、生きづらさや皮肉・都市の浮遊感を切り取ったトラック。
日本語を崩し"言語未満”の世界でGENDAIJINの孤独とリアリティを描く。

「I’d die without my iPhone.」
A track that blurs the line between words and sound — capturing emotional weight, irony, and the drifting feel of life in the city.
By breaking down the Japanese language into something “less than language,” GENDAIJIN explores isolation and raw modern-day reality.

Produced, written & vocal by NONAME

[Hook]
I’d die without my iPhone, yeah
I’m a GENDAIJIN
Not an alien, just a GENDAIJIN
Everyone ends up dead, so I just wanna slack off now, yeah
Eh, hmm, hmm, yeah, eh

I’d die without my iPhone, yeah
I’m a GENDAIJIN
Not an alien, just a GENDAIJIN
Everyone ends up dead, so I just wanna slack off now, yeah
Eh, hmm, hmm, yeah, eh


[Verse 1]
Living on Earth, I’m a modern man
Moon shining down, swimming in the sea of air
There’s a time limit
There’s a time limit
There’s a time limit
Carrying a debt of stress
I fly, yeah
But in the end, we die
Then it all means nothing
Sure, there’s no love
But it’s not about reasons
Not much to say, but sometimes I’m tired


[Hook]
I’d die without my iPhone, yeah
I’m a GENDAIJIN
Not an alien, just a GENDAIJIN
Everyone ends up dead, so I just wanna slack off now, yeah
Eh, hmm, hmm, yeah, eh

I’d die without my iPhone, yeah

GENDAIJIN

A laid-back lo-fi hip-hop track featuring a deadpan male vocal delivering observational lyrics about being emotionally checked out at a baseball game. The tone is casual, sardonic, and warm with subtle humor—like a cross between stand-up and stoner philosophy. Light vinyl crackle, muted drums, and mellow guitar or Rhodes keys. Vibe is more “background comedy” than “punchline.” Think lazy summer afternoon energy with a passive narrator just happy to have beer and a place to sit.

A Good Excuse for a Bad Picnic

Lyrics/License

A Good Excuse For a Bad Picnic (Lo-Fi)

Laid-back comedy rap with a chill trap beat and modern 808s. White-boy delivery with dry, sarcastic bars, light cussing, and ironic flexes. Inspired by MC Virgins, Yung Craka, and Shotgun Willy, this track blends funny, explicit lyrics with smooth Southern-influenced flow. Minimalistic keys, crisp hi-hats, subtle ukulele plucks, and whistle accents keep it catchy without being too hard. Just honest, unfiltered shit—no fake flexes, no cap.

Not Even Tryna

Lässige Blumengrüße – mal ganz anders.

„Rote Rosen“ ist keine Ballade, sondern ein Brett.
Ben Sander kombiniert große Geste mit verzerrten Gitarren, treibendem Beat und einem Augenzwinkern.
Ein Song zum Abrocken, Mitsingen und einfach Laufenlassen.
Schräg, laut, lässig – aber nie egal.

Floral greetings – with a twist.

“Rote Rosen” isn’t a ballad. It’s a banger.
Ben Sander blends big gestures with gritty guitars, driving beats, and a cheeky grin.
A track to turn up loud, shout along to, and just let go.
Weird, loud, cool – but never meaningless.

Rote Rosen

Ein Moment, der alles verändert.
„Im freien Fall“ ist ein moderner Lovesong voller Energie, Gefühl und Leichtigkeit. Tom Berger erzählt von dem überraschenden Moment, in dem Liebe ohne Warnung in ein Leben kracht – ehrlich, direkt und poetisch.
Der Song kombiniert starke Bilder mit einer klaren Sprache und einer mitreißenden Melodie, die zwischen Aufbruch und Hingabe schwebt. Für alle, die je das Gefühl hatten, die Welt kippt – und das war gut so.

With vivid imagery, crisp language, and a compelling melody, the track drifts between letting go and diving in. For everyone who’s ever felt the world shift — and somehow, it felt just right.
