Lyrics:

Happy new year
A bit of hope and some delightful cheer
Oh just like the year before
Happy new year
But like for real this time
And this one's divine
Here we go

On New Year's Eve
As the clock strikes twelve
Gonna think of you
And I'll ring that bell
You and me and me and you (ha)
Oh
Not many words are exchanged
With hungry looks on our faces
Just trying to drown out the hated
On New Year's Eve

And happy new year
A bit of hope and some delightful cheer
Oh just like the year before
Happy new year
But like for real this time
And this one's divine
And here we go

And that first track plays
A bittersweet symphony takes me away
As if words are the way (the first)
So take this ring with a kiss and a sound

On New Year's Eve
And happy new year
With a little hope already loaded up with cheer
And happy new year
Oh just like last time
But we really mean it
The commitment's been signed

I'll try just to walk the line
With a little hesitation
But I think that this time
We'll turn it all around on New Year's Eve
So heres to our health
It's time to rein it in
Just like our parents did
But I drink the wine there's no alternative
When being sober still makes you feel like shit

Let it BE Xmas

Happy New Year

Second round of Instrumental Hump Day! Today we're releasing one of the two instrumental tracks from our Metal album (https://ffm.to/metal-edge), which came out in October and is also available on SoundCloud - except for the last instrumental track. One of the upcoming Wednesdays, we'll release the other instrumental track from the Metal album, and then we'll start dropping a completely new project - more on that next time! 😉

"I Lost Her to a Previous Version of Me" isn’t exactly your typical love song... but hey, close enough! 💔🫠 A tale of regret, self-sabotage, and the bitter realization that *past you* might have been the worst third wheel ever. Perfect for Valentine’s Day if your idea of romance comes with a side of existential crisis. Enjoy! 😘

Lyrics:

They say you die twice
Once when they put you in the ground
The second is the last time anybody talks about you
So I guess I could be alive
'Cause I hear about that handsome fool all the time
And I curse the day she found him

I feel like a ghost
I walk around with the form of a man
But he's not me
Babe
I don't know who I am
'Cause she doesn't come around here
I don't feel her presеnce anymore
Yeah
I lost her to a previous version of me
Baby
What for?

Yeah
She never even saw it coming
Counseled me when he ran in
Even helped me back on my feet
But now it's black and white
She talks about me with those eyes
Never thought I'd fight for my life

But she swears to God
She swears up and down that it's him
I ask her
"Was it all just pretend?
Or were you always his?"

Yeah
She never even saw it coming
Counseled me when he ran in
Even helped me back on my feet
But now it's black and white
She talks about me with those eyes
Never thought I'd fight for my life

'Til he came back home
Covered in Billy
Gave her that smile
Said that he's changed
Gonna stay for a while
Now she counts in "we"
And I count in weeks

Yeah
She never even saw it coming
Counseled me when he ran in
Even helped me back on my feet
But now it's black and white
She talks about me with those eyes
Never thought I'd fight for my life

I Lost Her to a Previous Version of Me

Given the very recent events surrounding the war between Russia and Ukraine, the upheavals brought by Trump, and the dozens of ongoing conflicts around the world - definitely not the kind of stuff that lets you sleep soundly - we came up with this song!  
We were actually supposed to release a completely different track, a parody about voice assistants at home, but obviously, the theme of war and chaos ended up taking over.  
Enjoy the listen, and if you’re an Alexa & Co. user, stay tuned - our next song will surely get a sarcastic nod of approval from you! Let’s just hope that by the time it’s out, the conflict in Ukraine will have, in some way, come to an end.

Lyrics:

All around the world’s unraveling
Searching for peace while madmen pull strings
Turning lives into pawns feeding their tanks
Filling their ranks with our lives

Once-thriving cities now hollow and dark
Echoing loss echoing fear
And we stand here wondering
Was peace ever real

Was it ever more than a fragile dream
Here on Earth down here in chaos
Caught in the gears of someone else's scheme
Feeling the weight of our lost cause

Once-thriving cities now hollow and dark
Echoing loss echoing fear
And we stand here wondering
Was peace ever real

In the shadow of shattered dreams
We're searching for a spark of hope
Through the chaos and gears it seems
We're just too far around to cope

Once-thriving cities now hollow and dark
Echoing loss echoing fear
And we stand here wondering
Was peace ever real

Once-thriving cities now hollow and dark
Echoing loss echoing fear
And we stand here wondering
Was peace ever real

Chaos and Gears

YouTube Short

Ready to be swept away by this InstruMETAL? (No, it’s not a typo!)
This instrumental track - where Tom gives his voice a break to focus on production and mixing while Mary shreds her fingers to the bone - came to life by accident (and it was very improvised, so forgive the screams and the random nonsense) while we were working on a completely different song (something along the lines of our recent "I've Lost Her to a Previous Version of Me", just to give you an idea... and a little sneak peek).
Since it’s Wednesday, let’s make it another Instrumental Hump Day - so here’s this madness for you!
Enjoy!!! Ciaooo!❤️‍🔥
Note: This track is currently available exclusively on SoundCloud.  
Since many other streaming platforms have become useful only for the ultra-mega-famous, there’s no point in publishing it elsewhere - for various reasons. Let’s say it’s a kind of our little protest against a way of spreading music that hurts almost everyone, right here on SoundCloud!

Lyrics:

Hey Alyxia, can you hear me shout?  
I’ve called your name four times, you still tune me out 
I’ve got a bullhorn, but you’re off in a daze  
You’re the glitchiest gadget, stuck in your haze 
I say lights on, you think I said off,  
Now I’m tripping on furniture, cursing at the loft  
You’re supposed to be sharp, you’re supposed to assist  
But you’re more like a gremlin I can’t dismiss

Welcome to the dumb house, where logic’s astray
The lights flash like madness in the middle of the day  
You think you’re advanced with your microchip brain  
But I’d swap you for a switch without this techy pain

The coffee’s brewing, or so you claim  
But the pot’s ice-cold, just like your game  
You’ve locked the front door, but left it ajar
Now I’m locked in or out, talking to the car  
You call it intelligent, I call it insane  
I asked for the news, not a weather vane 
And if the Wi-Fi’s down, well, life’s on pause  
Can’t flush the toilet, can’t feed the cat’s claws

Welcome to the dumb house, where logic’s astray 
The lights flash like madness in the middle of the day 
You think you’re advanced with your microchip brain  
But I’d swap you for a switch without this techy pain

The fridge sends emails, the stove’s on a spree  
My TV’s giving lectures on philosophy  
Every device has its own little voice 
But not a single one follows my choice 
The thermostat’s plotting to freeze me out  
While the vacuum decides to wander about  
This place is a circus, a farce in disguise  
A high-tech nightmare that’s ruining my ties

Welcome to the dumb house, where logic’s astray  
The lights flash like madness in the middle of the day 
You think you’re advanced with your microchip brain  
But I’d swap you for a switch without this techy pain

Welcome to the dumb house, where logic’s astray  
The lights flash like madness in the middle of the day  
You think you’re advanced with your microchip brain  
But I’d swap you for a switch without this techy pain

So here’s to the future, where tech rules the roost  
But I’m longing for a time when things made some sense
At the very least  
I’ll take a dumb home with knobs and keys  
Over this dumb life that’s brought me to my knees 
Next time I’ll just buy a shack with no flair  
Because this digital dungeon is too much to bear

Dumb House

Music Video

We usually release instrumental tracks on Wednesdays, but since none of us will have any free time next Wednesday, here’s a "new" instruMETAL for you (yeah, we know, that wordplay sucks!).  
We put "new" in quotes because, well, it’s not really new! This is actually the closing track from "Metal Edge", our metal album, released (pretty much everywhere) on October 10, 2024. As of today, you can find the full album here on SoundCloud too, with this track added (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/sets/metal-edge).  
See you next Friday (…more or less) with a new track called "Born To Kill" (and yeah, this time it’s a serious one). And a huge thank you to everyone supporting us! We love you! ❤️‍🔥

Edge of Eternity (Instrumental)

🎥YouTube video (may contain images that some might find disturbing): https://youtu.be/LIUGKIYVGnk 
Here we are again with a new song, this time with a completely opposite theme to the fun sarcasm of our previous "Dumb House" (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/dumb-house), and somehow connected to "Cold Hearts" (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/cold-hearts). It’s about young killers🔪🩸, youngsters who, unfortunately, are committing horrific acts more and more often! Beyond the causes - something we’ll leave to psychologists, sociologists, and criminologists to debate - this song focuses on one unsettling question: is evil inherent or shaped by society? "Born to Kill" tells the story of those without remorse, driven by dark instincts and devoid of hope. A raw reflection on justice and condemnation, imprisonment and freedom.
Enjoy the listen and take a moment to reflect. 🧐
The short video, linked at the top of this description, may contain images that some might find disturbing (even though most of it is AI-generated and CG), so it's up to you to decide whether to click on it or not!

Lyrics:

In the night they prowl like beasts with claws
Born with bloodlust breaking all the laws
Caught in shadows twisted from the start
Souls so black no chance to play a part

Eyes like fire they never ever sleep
Silent whispers making mothers weep
Steel in hand and coldness in their core
Life means nothing bodies hit the floor

Were they ever meant to walk among
Doomed from birth with the devil’s tongue
Locked behind bars or let them free
Born to kill or can we let them be

Young assassins with a thirst unslain
Feel no sorrow no regret or pain
Should we cage them bury them so deep
Or face the truth these wolves won’t ever leap

Jail a fortress for a monster’s mind
Walls can’t cleanse them from the morbid grind
Should we end the cycle with a knife
Evil by nature is there hope for life

Were they ever meant to walk among
Doomed from birth with the devil’s tongue
Locked behind bars or let them free
Born to kill or can we let them be

Were they ever meant to walk among
Doomed from birth with the devil’s tongue
Locked behind bars or let them free
Born to kill or can we let them be

Born to Kill

**🌧 Rain 🌧**  
Here we are again with a track we started recording months ago but never finished!
Finally, we’ve completed it and, wouldn’t you know it, while we were finishing the production, it rained nonstop here, with hail and everything!
It's a journey through rain and melancholy, where wet streets reflect memories and unfulfilled desires. The city's heartbeat blends with the sound of the rain, as unanswered questions fade into the storm. A track wrapped in dark atmospheres and intense melodies, for those who can hear the sound of solitude.
At the moment, this track is exclusively available on SoundCloud.

Lyrics:

People walking in the street grey mist on my face
Loneliness is a city rain falling in its place
All the lights buzzing glowing in my eyes
Memories of the past haunting no goodbyes

Rain keeps pouring down no end in sight
Fear and desire tangled in this night
Footsteps echo like a distant cry
Here in the silence I can't tell you why

Under hard rain we're all looking for a sign
Falling with the drops we're lost in time
Cold hands reaching out but nobody's there
In the heart of the storm we breathe despair, but why?

Silver streets wet reflections now
Every raindrop a lost vow
Lurking ghosts inside our souls
Endless rain taking its toll

Thunder rolls distant lightning flickers low
Memories dissolve with each falling blow
Hope wears thin like the rain on glass
Questions unanswered time won't pass

Under hard rain we're all looking for a sign
Falling with the drops we're lost in time
Cold hands reaching out but nobody's there
In the heart of the storm we breathe despair, but why?

Rain

Here we are with something that shouldn’t even exist, just as an interlude between Rain (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/rain) and our next real song, which will definitely be much better, trust us! 😅 
OK, let's make one thing clear right away: don't even consider this one of our songs! 🤣 We mean, we didn’t exactly put much effort into making it! Simply put, Mary (the guitarist) had shouted out this word (with no meaning, it’s just the sound a zombie makes in an old video game), which in Italian sounds a bit like "Udò!" (we transliterated it as Oodaw in English, especially because it contains the word DAW🤪), Mauro (the keyboardist) had sampled it and from there, he started messing around with it, and everyone else followed suit!🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦
And here it is, in just a few minutes this 'thing' was born! 🤪 Tom’s final comment (the lead singer, who luckily doesn't sing in this... thing!) and Mary's heartfelt response, with Mauro’s evil laugh in the background, we decided to leave it in (obviously in Italian, so no one can understand, which is better🧏🏻‍♀️), just to completely ruin our reputation! We’re clowns on SoundClown (we're sorry SoundCLOUD, we’re sorry! 🤗). 
Enjoy torturing your precious ears! 🎧😬
At the moment, this track is exclusively available on SoundCloud (and it will probably remain that way forever because it's an April Fool's joke🤣).

For all dog lovers and animal lovers in general, here’s something that might touch your heart. ❤️‍🔥
Check out the short video linked above. 👆 We’ve included some dogs we personally loved and who are no longer with us, brought back to life through AI, a bit of CGI, and some heavenly lighting effects! 🥹
This is a song that contrasts the purity and loyalty of dogs, who effortlessly ascend to heaven, with the struggles of humans burdened by sin and regret, left to seek redemption on Earth.
As always, enjoy the listen, and thanks in advance to everyone who supports us! 🫶
See you next time - which, spoiler alert, will be a sort of anthem to celebrate our first year here on SoundCloud, telling the story of the band! 😉

Lyrics:

Heaven is free for every dog  
But not for humankind  

You keep asking yourself  
What went wrong with your life  
And why you're gonna stay down here  
If all dogs go to heaven  

They run through golden fields above  
While you stand here, alone and lost  
Their souls are pure, their hearts are free  
But yours is bound to misery  

All dogs go to heaven  
But you don't  
All dogs go to heaven  
With their soul  
You're not being sent  
To that heaven  
You're gonna stay  
Here on Earth 

You search for answers in the sky  
But heaven never calls your name  
You thought you'd rise, you swore you'd fly  
But you're still trapped inside the flame  

They cross the gates without a sound  
No chains to hold, no sins to count  
You scream, you beg, but there's no way  
You're left behind, you have to stay  

All dogs go to heaven  
But you don't  
All dogs go to heaven  
With their soul  
You're not being sent  
To that heaven  
You're gonna stay  
Here on Earth  

You prayed, you cried, you swore you'd change  
But no one's listening, it's still the same  
They run through fields, so free, so bright  
While you just fade into the night  

All dogs go to heaven  
But you don't  
All dogs go to heaven  
With their soul  
You're not being sent  
To that heaven  
You're gonna stay  
Here on Earth  

All dogs go to heaven  
But not mankind  
All dogs go to heaven  
They got soul  
You, human being, will stay right here  
You're gonna stay  
Here on Earth

All Dogs Go To Heaven

Today, as part of our aperiodic Instrumental Hump Day, we’re offering you something a bit different: here’s a preview of a side project we’ve been working on for a few months: a 🕹️Chiptune👾 album (we’ll let you know when it’s coming out, but definitely not before June)!
In this track (and in the others that will follow in this style), our guitarist and especially our lead singer focused on production and mixing, only playing a few notes here and there. Needless to say, it’s all a fully digital work, aiming to bring back that 80s vibe (with a splash of the 90s and our personal twist). 
If you’ve never heard of Chiptune before, here’s a quick intro:

Pathfinder (Instrumental - Chiptune)

YouTube video: https://youtu.be/3z-WWazmyiA 
This one's kinda our origin story – and we're dropping it to celebrate one year on SoundCloud. 🎉
And don’t forget to check out the fun video linked above! 😄
We were five misfits with totally different backgrounds, sounds, and lives...
But somehow, we clicked! Like fate decided we should form a band.
“Beating the Edge” looks back at that time, the messy, magical moment we came together.
It's raw, it's loud, it's full of heart.
No fake drama, no grand plans. Just real passion, some chaos, and a shared obsession with making music that punches through the noise.
That’s when Beating Edge was born. 🙌 And now we've got so many more friends, here on SoundCloud and beyond!! Thanks to all of you!!! We love ya!! ❤️

Lyrics:

Two wild souls, keys and drums 	
Chasing sounds, making runs
But no voice to tell the tale	
Till a ghost-thin kid let out a wail		

Synths were pumping, beats were tight		
But he craved the fire, craved the bite	
Rock and thunder in his veins				
Needed six strings to break the chains	

We’re the fire in the stream	
Burning up your midnight dream		
No stage, just waves we ride  
Crashing loud like a rising tide 
Beating the edge, one song at a time!  

A party spark, a six-string queen	
Five-feet-three but played so mean		
Then she said, "I know a guy,	
Silent thunder, bass so high!"	

Groove so thick, it shook the ground	
Rhythm locked, we found our sound		
Pages filled with names so strange		
Till one just hit like a roaring train!		

We’re the fire in the stream	
Burning up your midnight dream		
No stage, just waves we ride   
Crashing loud like a rising tide 		
Beating the edge, one song at a time! 

No aliens, no weak clichés		
Just a name that slays for days   
Turn it up, let it fly		
We’re the storm that won’t run dry 

We’re the fire in the stream		
Burning up your midnight dream	
No stage, just waves we ride 
Crashing loud like a rising tide 
Beating the edge, one song at a time!   

One song at a time 
One song at a time
Oh yeah!
One song at a time
We’re alive! 
One song at a time
We will rise!
Beating the edge, one song at a time!  

One song at a time 
Oh yeah!
One song at a time
We’re alive! 
One song at a time
Beating the edge, one song at a time!

Beating the Edge

Hey SoundCloud peeps!🤗 Here’s another chiptune for you! Blame Mary for the title, and her obsession with cute, fluffy creatures! And don’t mind if the poor alien or creature from another dimension (whatever it is... it could’ve come straight out of one of our guitarist’s fever dreams) plugged the jack into the strap hook instead of the output of its guitar with 5 tuning keys and 6 strings! A cute little pink creature like that gets a free pass, right? We hope you’ll also forgive us for creating all of this.😅
See you in a few days with a real song. Catch you in the comments!🫶

Pink Chubby Creature

Pink Chubby Creature (Instrumental - Chiptune)

🎦 YouTube video: https://youtu.be/8jYeSDLdfIk 👈
Hi everyone! 🙌 This time we're moving from the lightness of Chiptune (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/pink-chubby-creature) to something more reflective, something that concerns most of us, or at least those lucky (or unlucky) enough to live long enough to grow old. This song was inspired by a visit to a retirement home. Musically, it's kind of the spiritual child of our previous track "I lost her to a previous version of me" (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/i-lost-her-to-a-previous).
👉"Now and Here" is a meditation on aging, presence, and how quickly everything slips through our fingers. It starts in the softness of awareness and builds into a cry for recognition, for meaning, for being seen while there’s still time. We’ve all met someone who used to shine and now barely gets noticed. Maybe we fear becoming that person ourselves.
No fancy tricks here. Just lyrics that hit close to home and a melody that carries them with honesty. It’s a piece for those who’ve ever looked back and wondered where the time went, or forward and felt a chill.
🎧Hope you enjoy it, and huge thanks to everyone who takes the time to listen. An even bigger thank you to those who come back to it, leave a comment, hit like or repost it. 
We love you all! 🫶

Lyrics:

Life fades away,  
slow today.  
You're young,  
tomorrow you're old.  

Now and here, you're wild and free,  
time will steal what you can't see.  
One day strong, the next you're weak,  
fading like the words you speak.  

Now and here, you're shining bright,  
one day soon, you'll lose the fight.  
You’ll be old, they won’t care,  
screaming "Hey, I'm still right here!"

Now and here, you're standing tall,  
years will pass, you’re bound to fall.  
Once you ruled, now you fade,  
echoes lost in yesterday.  

Now and here, you're shining bright,  
one day soon, you'll lose the fight.  
You’ll be old, they won’t care,  
screaming "Hey, I'm still right here!"  
 
All your senses slipping slow,  
memories you used to know.  
Faces change, the past is gone,  
and the world just moves along.  

Now and here, you're young and strong,  
sing your song, it won’t last long.  
When you're old, they'll walk away,  
but your words remain to stay. 

But your words remain to stay.

Now and Here

Here we go again with some Chiptune! Third drop while we wait for next Friday's release (it's gonna be a love song so cheesy it melts, but with our usual twist!). You can check out our Chiptune tracks here: https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/sets/8-bit-vibes.

Side note totally unrelated to this track:
Can we just scream a massive F* O** to all the brilliant "artists" here on SoundCLOWN who follow you just to unfollow two days later?
And some of them proudly brag on YouTube about this super "smart" follow/unfollow trick to build reputation off people like us?
Sorry for the rant... and once again: F* O** AND JUST DIE ALREADY** to all the unfollow "geniuses" out there!
PS: We officially disown whatever was just said by Beating Edge’s secret sixth member! 🤣😬

A love song?😍 Yeah, maybe. But not the usual kind.
This one's about giving it all. No filters, no fear, no plan B.
Because when someone becomes your whole damn life,
you stop playing it cool.
You burn. You shine. You stay.
My life is you.❤️
Take it or leave it.

Lyrics:

All my life was just rushing away
‘till now
When you weren’t there
But now even the sun and the stars
Have stopped their rise and fall

My life is you
My life is you
My life is you
Darling
My life is you
Only you 
Now my life  
Belongs to you
To you  

Yes, I'm gonna catch the stars in the sky
Right now
So your bright eyes  
Have lights that shine as high
For their eternal lives  

Yes, I'll catch the magic in the air
Right now
For your happiness
And make you smile forevermore
For the rest of your life  

My life is you
My life is you
My life is you
Darling
My life is you
Honey
My life is you

My life is you
My life is you
All my life is you
Darling
My life is you

Yes, I'll set the fire in my heart
Right now
To keep you warm
Through the coldest nights
Forever by my side

Yes, I'll paint the heavens in your name
Right now
So every dawn
Will whisper soft and bright
That you’re my only light

My life is you
My life is you
My life is you
Darling
My life is you
Honey
My life is you

My life is you
My life is you
All my life is you
Darling
My life is you

My life is you
All my, my life
My life is you

My life is you

Lyrics Video

Alright, here we are again.🔊
While we finish up our next song (yeah, it's gonna be called "In the Future", check the bio if you missed that) and the music video (it's gonna be a trip!), here's a little something to mess with your ears and brain in the meantime.
It's a no-frills Chiptune track, just for fun.👾
And since we had no idea what to call it, we named it RND (short for random), a nod to the classic BASIC command from back in the day.
See you next Friday, or better yet... in the future! 🔮🌀

All our Chiptune tracks are here: soundcloud.com/beatingedge/sets/8-bit-vibes.

Welcome to the future! But how far ahead are we talking? A hundred years? Just one? That’s up to you. This song has two main layers of meaning. One is (kind of) in the lyrics… if you can decode them. The other is hidden in the cover art. Take a closer look at the drones and the two characters, you’ll see some letters on them. 
Let us know in the comments if you figured it out!
Enjoy this wild mix of Synth Pop and Heavy Metal, with generous splashes of Electronic Dance and Rock (we had to classify it as Alternative Rock because Industrial isn’t among the genres offered by SoundCloud)! 
And don’t forget to check out the crazy video linked above this description!
At the moment, this track is exclusively available on SoundCloud.

Lyrics:

Oh no there I go again
Me and my future man-made friends
It's still 1999
In the back of my mind
Now I move about on a magnet line

She's waiting at a military gate
Somewhere deep in the Frisco State
Looks like a satellite (satellite)
On a mountain top (mountain top)
Riding next to hers with my microchip card

She speaks in koans and bullet points
I'm learning the language and robot voice
She says maybe you're daydreaming
But I'm wide awake and

I'm in the future
Trying to water my lawn
But there's nothing to mow with not even my clothes
Still straddling this drone
When worlds explode
And ignite
At the turn of the century
Might hurt ourselves
We might hurt others
But I can come if you caught the chaos

And I move like a tornado shakes
Going off like I-95-break
When waves hit the mines
Ooh at night
She burns into a million megawatt sight

She speaks in koans and bullet points
I'm learning the language and robot voice
She says maybe you're daydreaming
I'm wide awake believe me

I'm in the future
Trying to water my lawn
But there's nothing to mow with not even my clothes
Still straddling this drone

I'm in the future

I'm in the future
Trying to water my lawn
But there's nothing to mow with not even my clothes
Still straddling this drone

I'm in the future
Trying to water my lawn
But there's nothing to mow with not even my clothes
Still straddling this drone

Oh yeah
I'm in the future

In the Future

Official Music Video

New track alert!😀
"Asteroids (The Original Was Better)" is the result of a spontaneous and fun collab between our friend and amazing musician Joe Stroffolino (https://soundcloud.com/joseph-stroffolino) and Beating Edge. Joe heard our chiptune track RND (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/rnd-instrumental-chiptune), got inspired by it, and wrote some lyrics based on the classic arcade game Asteroids. He added his voice and acoustic guitar over it, and sent it our way.
We loved it and decided to jump in too, building a second part with a more rock-driven vibe, using the same chiptune idea as inspiration. We stitched everything together into a single track, kicking things off with a fun spoken intro, a short vocal transition between the parts, and closing with a wild, over-the-top outro.
Hope you enjoy this crazy, hybrid ride as much as we enjoyed making it! Thanks so much to everyone who gives it a listen, sending lots of love your way!❤️‍🔥
Huge thanks, Joe, for this awesome collab! Can’t wait for the next one!😉

Lyrics:

[Spoken Intro]
Joe: Wow! This is a really cool Arcade!
Tom: Yeah!
Joe: Hey, check it out! Is that an Asteroids game over there?
Tom: Oh, wow!
Joe: I haven't seen that in like that forever!
Tom: That's definitely Asteroids! Let's play a game!
Mary (with a sore throat 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣): Oh yeah! Let's play Asteroids!

-->Joe

I used to play asteroids in the 1980’s
I liked to blow up rocks in outer space
The flying saucers would attack me
At an ever-increasing pace

I stumbled across an old vintage arcade the other day
I hadn’t played Asteroids in a long time
I popped a quarter into that old machine
And I watched my score start to climb

I watched my score start to climb
I watched my score start to climb
I watched my score start to climb

Time goes by so quickly 
and playing that game really took me back
To those days when my future was unwritten
And I hadn’t gone so far down my current track

Pushing those buttons so fast and furiously
Standing in front of that arcade machine
Blowing up all those asteroids 
On that black and white video screen

Blowing up all those asteroids 
On that video screen
Blowing up all those asteroids 
On that video screen

For a couple of minutes, I forgot about the present
I was back floating in outer space
Breaking big rocks into small rocks
I had a a big smile on my face

And then it was time for me to go
Cause I had errands that I needed to run
But that old video game
I sure had a lot of fun

It's not over yet

-->Tom 

Just a single screen, all black and white
The whole room's dark except the TV's light
Rotate and thrust, it wasn't much
No one had seen a thing like this before

Now there's a 3D holographic thing
That no one plays, 'cause nobody can afford
With a visor on, your body's gone
It's kinda fun, but the original was better

We used to play all day, late at night
For the high score, it was do or die
No one knew what a quarter was worth
No one knew what the future had in store

Now there's a 3D holographic thing
That no one plays, 'cause nobody can afford
With a visor on, your body's gone
It's kinda fun, but the original was better

The original was better
The original was better
The original was better
The original was better

Now there's a 3D holographic thing
That no one plays, 'cause nobody can afford
With a visor on, your body's gone
It's kinda fun, but the original was better

[Spoken Outro]
Someone who wants to stay anonymous 😂: That was a lot of fun!

Video🎥 here: https://youtu.be/c3-cFsIUC0M / Links: https://ffm.to/everything-changed
Everything Changed (But Me) is the first chapter of our brand new apocalyptic trilogy (the second part, called "Let's Die Tonight", was released on June 26 - https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/lets-die-tonight - along with the video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4SFAXq_qGI).😅
The video shows a strange, purple sky filled with terrifying clouds. People are running, looking up, screaming... but we never really understand what’s going on. In the end, our guitarist wakes up from what seems like a nightmare, but she doesn’t look to her right, where the purple storm is real, outside her window. So maybe she isn’t dreaming at all. 
The song plays with two layers. One is global, unsettling, and chaotic. The other is much more personal and introspective.
The world is changing, inside and out.
Little technical side note: this song really gave us a hard time, too many incompatible gears, but we made it in the end! It should sound decent enough! 
As always, headphones recommended! 🎧
Make sure to watch the video to catch more of the story. 
This is only the beginning..😬
Thanks for listening and see you in the comments!
Love you! 💜

Lyrics:

I woke up one day
And it all was new
The world was insane
Oh what's it coming to?

Why is everybody running?
It seems so strange
And why is everybody screaming?
Everything's changed

Everything changed (Everything Changed)
But me
Everything changed (Everything Changed)
But me
Everything changed
Everything changed
Everything changed
Everything changed

And they're all looking to the skies
But oh what can they see?
And the world's passed me by
But not me

Why is everybody running?
It seems so strange
And why is everybody screaming?
Everything's changed

Everything changed (Everything Changed)
But me
Everything changed (Everything Changed)
But me
Everything changed
Everything changed
Everything changed
Everything changed

Everything changed (Everything Changed)
But me
Everything changed (Everything Changed)
But me
Everything changed
Everything changed
Everything changed
Everything changed

Everything Changed (But Me)

Hey there, inhabitants of the music planet!🙌🏻
We dusted off 2050's Blues, one of our less famous tracks from last year. Back then, landing 100 plays on SoundCloud was basically a celebration. Lately, thanks to their algorithm pushing AI stuff, it kinda feels like we’re almost back there 🤔. We gave it a proper makeover with fresh guitar and bass effects, a couple of sneaky layers to spice it up, drums fixed with no more clipping madness, and even the vocals got a serious upgrade. Turns out Tom was a little too generous with the compression last time, yeah, blame the producer! 🤣
Now it finally grooves the way it was meant to.
Enjoy the listen.🎧

Lyrics:

Sittin' on the corner
Watchin' hovercars fly by
In this world of technology
Where blues still survive
2050's got me feelin' so low
A hundred years past the blues
But the pain still overflows

Steppin' on the concrete
Neon lights fill the streets
But there's still that melancholy in the melodies that I sing
The electric guitar cries
Trumpet wails in despair
Piano keys tappin'
Tellin' stories of city streets at night

Lost in this concrete jungle
Looking for a sign
People rushing by
No time to stop and talk
But I keep on walking
Searching for that spark

Skyscrapers reach high
They touch the sky
But all I see are empty buildings passing me by
The city's chaos
It's a symphony of sound
But I'm just trying to find my way around

Oh
Neon lights
City streets at night
Lost in this concrete jungle
Looking for a sign
People rushing by
No time to stop and talk
But I keep on walking
Searching for that spark

Skyscrapers reach high
They touch the sky
But all I see are empty buildings passing me by
The city's chaos
It's a symphony of sound
But I'm just trying to find my way around

Oh
Neon lights at night
Lost in this concrete jungle
Looking for a sign
People rushing by
No time to stop and talk
But I keep on walking
Searching for that spark

Skyscrapers reach high
They touch the sky
But all I see are empty buildings passing me by
The city's chaos
It's a symphony of sound
But I'm just trying to find my way around

Lost in the city
Can't find my way home
Surrounded by strangers
Feeling all alone
But I won't give up

2050's Blues (Revamped)

Once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away, there was a small group of music-loving aliens who decided to live among humans, blending in, absorbing their musical art, and trying to contribute with their own.😜
On a planet Earth plagued by wars, hatred, climate change, and junk food, with 99 percent of the wealth held by just 1 percent of humanity, these somewhat alienated aliens one day discovered that even the dark can be beautiful.
They discovered The Beautiful Dark (https://soundcloud.com/thebeautifuldark), simply Carl to his friends, living on a beautiful island not far from the chaos of the old continent, the noble Ireland.
So this little bunch of aliens with their questionably produced music decided that yes, absolutely, they had to at least try to pay tribute to that Earth artist who felt anything but Earthbound in his noble intentions.
They just had to do it. Especially after dear Carl helped ease the pain of our guitarist’s clumsy fall down the stairs with his poetry, music, and photography (she’s fine, don’t worry ). 😂
This one is epic: https://soundcloud.com/thebeautifuldark/may-apples-read-you-one-handed 😅
So here is our tribute to the awesome Carl. It’s a humble offering compared to his talent and refined art, but considering it was written, played, arranged, sung, produced, and mixed in just two days, it’s kind of a small miracle.
We really hope you’ll like it, especially you, Carl.
Big thanks to all the amazing artists on SoundCloud. This music planet is wonderful. Thank you for existing. 🤗
Thank you, Carl. Love you. 🫶
P.S. As for the wild Italian rambling at the end of the track, we’ll talk about that in the comments maybe. Better not clutter the song description with Mary’s poetically hysterical metaphors. 😂
Ah, and the cover art is titled Carl kicks the Moon's arse.😆
The song is in D minor, the perfect key to express both beauty and melancholy. It hopefully captures the very spirit of Ireland and the deep emotions behind “The Beautiful Dark.” It’s as if the music itself builds a bridge between light and shadow, between solitude and hope.
At the moment, this track is exclusively available on SoundCloud.
Released on June 18, 2025.

Lyrics:

You speak in verses old as stone,
Like rivers carving through the bone.
A voice that holds the wild and wise,
With every line, a new sunrise.

Your home is filled with turf and song,
The tales of old still loud and strong.
Mist rolls in from hills and sea,
Yet your words still set us free.

So here’s to you, Carl, friend and guide,
In every rhyme you stand with pride.
May your music sail on open seas,
With love, from us, across the breeze.

Not just a poet, but a fire,
That burns through doubt, that lifts us higher.
You blend the past with something new,
A druid’s heart beats pure and true.

So here’s to you, Carl, friend and guide,
In every rhyme you stand with pride.
May your music sail on open seas,
With love, from us, across the breeze.

A crackling fire, stars above,
The night wrapped tight in verse and love.
The chords fall right, the words stay strong,
Lights down low, this is Carl's song.

So here’s to you, Carl, friend and guide,
In every rhyme you stand with pride.
May your music sail on open seas,
With love, from us, across the breeze.

Hearts full, pints raised, this is Carl’s song!

The Beautiful Dark (Carl's Song)

Hey there, how’s it going music people?🤗 Here’s another Chiptune track👾 (you can find the previous ones here: https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/sets/8-bit-vibes), finished yesterday, the day of the solstice (summer or winter depending on which hemisphere you’re in). The original title was just “Catchy Tune,” but honestly it sounded pretty lame, so we decided to change it to “Solstice,” since we completed it on June 21! 
Enjoy listening and have a great Sunday everyone!🫶

Solstice (Instrumental - Chiptune)

Video🎥 here: https://youtu.be/q4SFAXq_qGI [Featuring Carl - The Beautiful Dark] - As crazy as it is worth watching!😬
Here we are with the second chapter of our crazy apocalyptic trilogy!🌪️⚡️
In the first episode, with the song Everything Changed (But Me) [here: https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/everything-changed-but-me], we took you into a world where everything had changed: strange purple-lit skies, people running everywhere, many pointing at the sky, but no one really understanding what was going on. And in the end, it all seemed like a dream, even though the view outside the window suggested the madness was actually real.
Now, with this new track called Let's Die Tonight, things take an even crazier and darker turn. Musically, we’ve shifted from Synth Pop to Dance. It's the perfect vibe to describe a wild reality where some kind of life-force vampires are driving people insane, making them feel totally unhinged as multiple celestial bodies head straight for Earth.
We strongly recommend watching the video and sticking around until the very end. After the song, our great friend and amazing artist Carl (The Beautiful Dark - https://soundcloud.com/thebeautifuldark) shows up on screen to reveal some behind-the-scenes details and hint at where the story is headed next. And yes, with the next episode of this trilogy, we’ll go full classic metal (not necessarily the next song, though).
Thanks to everyone taking a bit of time to check this out.
We really hope you enjoy both the song and the video and that you have a blast with it.💃🏻🕺🏻
Let us know what you think in the comments!😉
Love you all! 🫶

Lyrics:

Dancing with you (Dancing with you)
Dancing with you
We're gonna die tonight

I know you want to move
Let the music take control
You and me and the beat
Now
It's time to lose control

I know you want to move
Let the music take control
You and me and the beat
Now
It's time to lose control

We just wanna have fun
(Oh, yeah) We just wanna have fun
The last day on Earth
(Oh, yeah) We're gonna die tonight

We just wanna have fun
(Oh, yeah) We just wanna have fun
The last day on Earth
(Oh, yeah) We're gonna die tonight

We're gonna die tonight

I know you want to move
Let the music take control
You and me and the beat
Now
It's time to lose control

I know you want to move
Let the music take control
You and me and the beat
Now
It's time to lose control

We just wanna have fun
(Oh, yeah) We just wanna have fun
The last day on Earth
(Oh, yeah) We're gonna die tonight

We’re gonna die tonight

We just wanna have fun
(Oh, yeah) We just wanna have fun
The last day on Earth
(Oh, yeah) We're gonna die tonight

Let's Die Tonight

Somewhere between the shore and the stars, a message is drifting.
Not just words, but hopes, confessions, maybe even love.❣️
After the warm response to Let’s Die Tonight (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/lets-die-tonight), we figured we’d keep riding the summer wave (for those of us in the northern hemisphere, anyway) with a synth-pop track full of groove, heart, and a breeze of sun-soaked nostalgia.
It’s for anyone who’s ever sent something out into the world, not knowing if it would be heard… but hoping someone would listen.🌊
A rhythm that carries the weight of a whisper.
Read the words before they blink.
Before a wish unfolds.
Hit play and drift away! Love you all!🫶

Note: this is not the third part of our apocalyptic trilogy. For zombies and bloodshed, you’ll have to wait a little longer.🤘

Lyrics:

Ocean waves they call my name
Bottled dreams for you to claim
Sending whispers on the tide
Hopes and secrets I confide

Sailing far across the sea
Winds of change they're guiding me
From the shore I say goodbye
Catch my words before they fly

Message in a bottle
Floating through the night
Message in a bottle
Guided by the light

Find it now don't let it sink
Read the words before they blink

Found my message to your shore
Opened hearts seeking more
Found my message hold it tight
In your hands love's pure delight

Sailing far across the sea
(The sea)
Winds of change they're guiding me
(Me)
From the shore I say goodbye
(Goodbye)
Catch my words before they fly
(They fly)

Message in a bottle
Floating through the night 
Message in a bottle
Guided by the light

Message in a bottle
Floating through the night
Message in a bottle
Guided by the light

Find it now don't let it sink
(Don't let it sink)
Read the words before they blink
(Before they blink)
In the stars a story told
(A story told)
In the dark a wish unrolled
(Unrolled)
Journey in love

To the days we're still unsure
Read the words before
Read the words
Read the words
Read the words
Read the words
Before a wish unfolds

In your hands love's pure delight

Message in a bottle
Floating through the night
Message in a bottle
Guided by the light

Message in a bottle
Floating through the night
Message in a bottle
Guided by the light

Read the words
Read the words
Before a wish unfolds

Message in a Bottle

🎭Superheroes, video games, and the eternal clash between good and evil, with a heavy dose of sarcasm in stereo! Tom’s the villain, Mary’s the hero (maybe). It’s Just a Game... or is it?
We recorded this track months ago as an experiment with Auto-Tune and other full-blast vocal effects, but it sat on standby for a while without being mixed, since we prioritized other songs, and now here’s the result.😬
Normally we don’t use all these vocal effects, just the usual stuff like EQ, compression, and a bit of manual pitch correction when needed (Logic Pro’s Flex Pitch). But this time we went all in, and the result is pretty wild, especially on Mary’s voice.
That's all! Enjoy the listen (..as much as possible🤪).
Feel free to tell us it sucks in the comments!😹

Lyrics:

[Male]
Here we go again, it’s the same old fight  
Heroes rise, villains hide, in the starlit night 
One side’s saving, one’s misbehaving  
Guess which one I’m playing? (Heh!)  

[Female]
Oh, don’t pretend you don’t know the rules  
Every bad guy plays it cool  
But in the end, good always wins  
Sorry, babe, that’s how it spins!  

[Both]
(Oh no!) The city’s burning bright  
(Oh yeah!) But justice takes the night  
You run, I chase, it’s a thrilling race  
But who’s the cat and who’s the prey?  

Good or bad, it’s a game we play  
Dancing in the night like a masquerade  
Tick-tock, flip the coin, who will stay?  
It’s a game of light and shadow!  

Good or bad, it’s a twist of fate  
One step right and the other astray  
Round and round in this grand ballet  
It’s a game of light and shadow!  

[Male]
I got the gadgets, I got the style  
Why be a saint when you can run wild?  
Crime pays better, let’s be clever  
Say it with me: "Forever!"  

[Female]
Oh please, you’ll end up caught  
Like every villain in every plot  
You might be cool, you might be slick  
But good plays this long game, quick!  

[Both]
(Oh no!) The chase is on again  
(Oh yeah!) But where does it all end?  
You run, I chase, but here’s the twist  
What if we’re both the same in this?  

Good or bad, it’s a game we play 
Dancing in the night like a masquerade  
Tick-tock, flip the coin, who will stay?  
It’s a game of light and shadow!  

Good or bad, it’s a twist of fate  
One step right and the other astray  
Round and round in this grand ballet  
It’s a game of light and shadow!  
 
[Male] Maybe today, I’ll switch my side...  
[Female] Maybe today, you’ll finally decide...  
[Male] Nahhh, too much fun in the chaos and thrill!  
[Female] Sigh, fine... chase me, I’ll stand still!  
 
Good or bad, it’s a game we play  
Dancing in the night like a masquerade  
Tick-tock, flip the coin, who will stay?  
It’s a game of light and shadow!  

Good or bad, it’s a twist of fate  
One step right and the other astray  
Round and round in this grand ballet  
It’s a game of light and shadow!  

[Male]
Guess we’ll do this all again tomorrow?  
[Female]
Oh, you bet! See you at midnight!  
[Male]
OK, cool!

It's Just a Game

Hey beautiful people!🤗
We cooked up a funky instrumental track featuring Valerio absolutely killing it on drums (not that bass and guitar are holding back). It’s called "Sticks of Funk" and we’re dropping it today to celebrate the birthday🎉 of the man who sets the beat, or keeps the groove alive, however you wanna put it.
It’s a bit different from what we usually do, and just a heads-up, the track kicks off with an old vocal sample from a funky song we never finished or released, and yeah... it might make you jump out of your seat the first time you hear it. Totally unintentional, promise.
Hope you dig it, and happy birthday Val!🎂
In the meantime, we’re working on a song inspired by an ’80s classic we recently heard at a live gig, complete with a video! We’ll share it with you in a few days.
If you feel like it, hit us up in the comments! Thanks in advance for the feedback!

Sticks of Funk (Instrumental)

🎥Video here: https://youtu.be/7kveJYWMzqk🤘
About a month ago, a couple of us went to a Duran Duran concert… and Wild Boys hit us hard. That raw energy, the wild vibe, it stayed with us. So we decided to create something in that same spirit: dirty, loud, aggressive… but 100% our own.
Street Dogs is about instinct, survival, and sticking together. We’re the ones with no masters, no leashes, just fangs, claws, and fire in our blood. In this concrete jungle, we fight dirty, we howl at the moon, and we never back down.
Hope you enjoy the track and the video we had a blast putting together! 
Love you all!🫶

Lyrics:

We move through these alleys
And we got these instincts
Smell blood when it runs
This city still stinks
We chase down these leads
We still got them in heat
Our bodies so sore
But we love it this way

We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs
We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs
We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs
We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs

We're dogs without owners
We ain't got no masters
We come from the ruins
Of war-torn disasters
It's still in our blood
You can still see the bones
In this jungle of concrete
That we still call home

We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs
We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs
We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs
We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs

We don't fight fair
But we still fight together
We howl at the moon
While we're praying for better
We're hungry for meat
But we still love the chase
We're a pack full of bastards
But you can't take our place

We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs
We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs
We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs
We got these fangs and these teeth and these claws
We are street dogs
We are street dogs

Do you like coffee? Well, then this song is for you! And even if you hate coffee, maybe you'll still enjoy the song - so give it a shot!😉
We wrote "My Coffee and Me" several months ago, almost a year back, and recorded a super rough demo... which then got lost somewhere in the depths of a random USB hard drive. A few days ago, while our guitarist was commenting on a song by our friend Bill (https://soundcloud.com/user-995867230) - go check out his page, he's an awesome guitarist and makes great stuff (often with the equally awesome Rob Olsson! https://soundcloud.com/rdolsson) - we randomly ended up talking about coffee. That’s when we thought: hey, we’ve got a couple of hours free and it’s boiling hot outside, why not re-record that coffee song? It actually sounded kinda cool!
And so we did! Coffee is served, ladies and gentlemen! Let us know if it’s to your taste in the comments!
Love you all!! 🫶☕️
🤘And since the legendary Ozzy Osbourne passed away yesterday, we couldn’t help but dedicate this little caffeine-fueled track to him. If coffee had a frontman, it would’ve been Ozzy. Wild, wired, unstoppable. We raise this cup to you, Prince of Darkness.☕🖤🎸🤟
Rock in peace, legend!🫡

Lyrics:

I don't need the love
I just need the caffeine
I don't need to sleep
I just need to have dreams

I don't need the drugs
I just need the feeling
I don't need to rest
I just need the healing

My coffee and me
Oh yeah
Just my coffee and me
Oh yeah baby
Just my coffee and me
 
I don't need the lights
I just need the fire
I don't need the smoke
I just need to be higher

I don't need the wings
I just need the wind
I don't need to fight
I just need to win

My coffee and me
Oh yeah
Just my coffee and me
Oh yeah baby
Just my coffee and me

Oh yeah baby
Just my coffee and me

My Coffee and Me

OK, true, we already released a song today, and you're probably still sipping your coffee from https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/my-coffee-and-me.
But we just had to drop this instrumental too (OK, to be honest, it was our nerdy keyboard player Mauro who absolutely insisted on it), a little tribute to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Commodore Amiga (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amiga)! 🎂💾
On July 23, 1985, the legendary Commodore Amiga was unveiled at New York’s Lincoln Center, with the iconic Andy Warhol as its godfather and the fantastic Debbie Harry from Blondie adding star power to the event.
The Amiga was a beast for its time: 8-bit samples, thousands of colors (32 out of 4096 at first, then 256+ with AGA), and the legendary HAM mode.
A machine that changed the game and inspired this track.
