25 tracks·free·CC0 1.0

Gotcha Liar is a cinematic lounge collection that starts warm and welcoming, then lets the mask slip. Smoky jazz, velvet R&B, sly funk, Latin color, and noir-leaning instrumentals move from polished cocktail-hour charm into suspicion and a cool afterglow. Every track is AI-made and released under CC0, free to stream, download, edit, and use commercially without attribution.
