Hi, I'm Vik!
DIY, 30-something, female songwriter, producer, & lyricist. Music is my love language. As Masquerade, I make electropunk & post punk music for fun, learning, and catharsis.

My music is for you if you value authentic human connection, embrace deep reflection and socially conscious themes, appreciate diverse and interesting sounds that keep you hooked, and you want to come along my music journey as an equal. 

I am honoured to be one of the first 1,000 people to become a VerifiedHuman™ Musician, which is a global certification standard for human-made creative work—like Fair Trade, but for creativity. VerifiedHuman™ signals authenticity, transparency, and integrity in creative expression and certifies people to build trust in their work.

Additionally, I joined New Bohemia, the world’s first sanctuary for authentic human creativity in the digital age! My music is part of a warm community of creatives who all share and support one another without generative-AI content in the mix. 

I'm also a proud member of Conformity Is Death (CID), an independent music collective all about growth, friendship, and freedom of expression.

All my music is available for sync on the Free Music Archive. Please feel free to get in touch for more information and permission to use my music for your project!
