"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

OK, we know we’re probably annoying you dropping songs non-stop, but the summer break is finally coming, so this is the second to last one. Tomorrow, we’ll release another track in collaboration with The Beautiful Dark, complete with a video, and then we’ll take a break.🤟
Hell on Earth reflects the heartbreaking reality faced by millions caught in conflicts that tear cities apart and shatter lives. This song doesn’t take sides, not because we don’t care, but because we believe it’s not wise to claim to fully understand such complex and devastating situations without living them firsthand. Instead, it holds up a mirror to the human cost of war, where innocent voices get lost beneath collapsing skies and silent screams.😔
We stand with all those living on the edge of hell, hoping for a future where justice and peace aren’t barricaded by violence and fear. We wrote this track not to divide, but to remind us all of the urgent need for empathy, awareness, and the courage to hope, even when hell feels dangerously close.
Oh, just to be clear (since it’s happened with other songs before): the higher vocal parts are not sung by Mary, they’re all Tom. Mary does the backing vocals, and of course, she’s also the one going wild on guitar.🎸
One more thing about the genre: SoundCloud only offers a few broad options, and this track blends several genres and subgenres. So yeah, sorry dear metalheads if we picked “Metal” as the genre. Feel free to roll your eyes, but honestly, it felt like the only one that truly fit (..more or less)! 😌
Peace!✌️
At the moment, this track is exclusively available on SoundCloud.

Lyrics:

We stand beneath collapsing skies,
While sirens slice the breathless dark.
Steel and flame in children's eyes,
Ashes fall where once grew parks.

We see mothers hold their breath,
Smoke replaces lullabies.
It’s not our soil, but we still feel
The echo of their silent cries.

They’re living on the edge of hell.
No flags can shield from what we see.
The cities burn, and clear as a bell,
It’s not a dream, it’s the edge of hell.

We read the screens, the endless scroll,
Where hope and fear are pixel-blurred.
From shattered towns to border walls,
The same old scream remains unheard.

No gods, no peace, just shattered ground.
Hope stitched in cloth and battlegrounds.
We watch through glass, we barely speak,
As one more future starts to leak.

They’re living on the edge of hell.
No bloodline shared, but we still bleed.
Bombs and silence cast their spell,
Dragging truth to the edge of hell.

No border stops a breaking heart.
The fire jumps from spark to spark.
From phone to soul, we feel the weight.
This fight is real and it won't wait.

Still standing on the edge of hell,
With shattered oaths and silent screams.
We light a match, we wish them well,
But deep inside we know what it means.

Maybe one day this war will fade,
And justice won’t be barricade.
But tonight we watch and damn, it’s near:
Hell’s not gone. It’s always here!

Hell on Earth

😆(Preface ..this is our 100th track on SoundCloud)🫨
OK, we’re back, ready to get hated even more than before, especially from those who have no sense of humor!😆
🚀 Wanna see Uranus? 🌌
No, not what you're thinking… or maybe yes 😏
A cosmic comedy with a twist: William Herschel, who discovered Uranus in 1781, was also a musician - so we’re in good company. The Beating Edge shares his love for both music and the stars. Dropping late August, this track is perfect for summer nights under the stars (and cracking a few cosmic jokes). Look up… and remember: it's just a planet!
💫 Poetic license alert: we know Uranus isn’t actually shining bright in the night sky, it’s almost invisible to the naked eye. To spot it, you’d need binoculars or a small telescope, and a really dark location, definitely not in the city.
💫 Bonus: you don’t need a telescope to enjoy it, but laughing is mandatory!
Have fun and maybe we’ll talk about Ur-anus 😂 in the comments!
Love you all!! 🫶

Lyrics:

Wanna see Uranus?

Hey, wanna come and check out Uranus?
It’s shining bright, you gotta see this
Everyone’s got their cameras out
Capturing something way too lit to miss

Wait, what? Did you just say Uranus?
Are you serious? Or messing with me?
My... what now? Can you say it again?
Is this some kind of cosmic comedy?

No, no, no, it’s the planet, man
Out there spinning in the endless span
Not what you’re thinking, don’t be shy
Just look up at the summer sky

Wanna see Uranus? It’s out tonight
Glowing in the dark, such a crazy sight
Not what you thought, don’t lose your cool
It’s just a planet, no need to drool

My... anus? Really? That’s the joke?
I thought you said something broke
But now I’m laughing, can’t deny
Uranus rules the cosmic sky

Wanna see Uranus? Come along
It’s more than just a silly song
Look up high, don’t be confused
It’s the planet, dude, not your… you know

Wanna see Uranus? Come along
It’s more than just a silly song
Look up high, don’t be confused
It’s the planet, dude, not your… you know!

Uranus

Summer’s almost over, so we thought another track with the right vibe was needed. 🔊💃🏻🕺🏻
This one’s a mix of electro, synth pop and house, high-energy and uplifting, with a touch of happy chaos. It’s actually based on a true story of heartbreak from last summer, but spoiler alert: if you listen through to the end, you’ll find out it has a happy ending.😊
It’s Valerio’s story (yeah, our drummer!), and yes, they’re still together and doing great. Expect some wild vocals and crazy guitars on this one. 
Turn it up and enjoy!😉🫶

Lyrics:

You left your bracelet on my sink
Still smells like you, like smoke and pink
I never asked you where you’d go
I just played dumb, like I didn’t know

And now I’m running past the same old bar
Same beat, same street, same broken car
You’re not there but the echo is
And I still taste your midnight kiss

I’m back where you left me
Same song playing, same sky empty
Thought I moved on, but I still check
Every face in every set
I’m dancing hard but barely breathing
Still back where you left me

Your friends pretend they don’t recall
But they smile weird when I say it all
You wore my shirt, slept in my head
Now you’re just lines I never read

And I don’t blame you for the fade
We lit too fast, we burned, we strayed
But every drop in this refrain
Still whispers you behind the rain

I’m back where you left me
Same beat spinning, lights all messy
Tried new drinks, tried new names
Still end up playing the same games
I’m laughing loud but barely breathing
Still back where you left me

No drama, no tears, no final fight
You just faded like the bass at night
Left a note I never found
Just silence wrapped in club sound

I’m back where you left me
Same crowd, same night, same memory
I change the station, change my hair
But somehow you’re still there
I’m moving on but never leaving
Still back where you left me

I'm back where you left me
All alone

Back Where You Left Me

Sometimes life really feels like a sitcom on wheels 🚗💥.
“Just Another Day” is born from a couple of small real accidents that happened to two of us (don’t ask who 😅). Between alarms, burnt breakfasts, empty gas tanks, exploding tires and near-superhero sprints, we tried to turn the chaos into a darkly playful pop rock anthem. Because at the end of the day… it’s just another day!🤪

Lyrics:

It is Sunday morning
the alarm is ringing
I don’t want to wake up
I just need more sleeping

It’s already 9 o’clock
I can’t wait to see you
I get up and grab some bread
it almost makes me dead

But I’ve no time
I take my car
driving straight to you
now something’s wrong
I need to stop
I’m out of fuel

Dozens of cars ahead
under this burning sun
it’s just another day
a day of madness, craziness
but nothing in this world
will stop me going on
I’m back into the traffic
feeling lost, confused and stuck
I’m going slightly crazy
I just need a mental pit stop

Now I’m driving faster
I’ve almost reached you
there are only 9 more blocks
keeping me away from you
When the blocks are only 4
suddenly a tire blows
and I crash into the wall
I’m OK but the car is not

I need to run
it’s getting late
and no, I can’t wait
to hug you once again
I want to hold
you in my arms
and kiss you once again
after all
it’s just another day

I feel like the Flash
my shoes are burning
I’m sweating like a runner
I just need some resting
But now I’m almost there
breathless and almost dead
when someone makes me stumble
this is just another day

Dozens of cars ahead
under this burning sun
it’s just another day
a day of madness, craziness
but nothing in this world
will stop me going on
I’m back into the traffic
feeling lost, confused and stuck
I’m going slightly crazy
I just need a mental pit stop

This is just another day
yeah, just another day

Just Another Day

Happy Birthday to our keyboard wizard Mauro AKA Maux! 🎉
For his special day, he came up with a brand-new Chiptune rearrangement of one of our earliest tracks, Birthday Bash (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/birthday-bash). A retro, pixel-party twist on one of our first songs, reimagined through his creativity to celebrate the moment.
Big cheers to him, and turn up the 8-bit vibes! 🕹️🎂✨
And stay tuned!! Tomorrow we’re dropping a brand new track, the last one of this summer with a summery, playful vibe! 🌞🎶

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

Birthday Bash - Chiptune Edition (Instrumental - Chiptune)

We’re taking advantage of the total lunar eclipse over Europe on September 7 to take you dancing on the Moon 🌕✨. This is the last summer vibe track of the year for anyone in the Northern Hemisphere, so enjoy it while the sun is still out.
Next track we’ll put Mary back in the spotlight with her electric guitar 🎸🔥!!
Enjoy!

Love you all! 💖

Lyrics:

Going up and down again
You are jumping on the Moon
Going up and down again
You are jumping on the Moon
Again, again

Ready for launch
On your rocket ship
Sweating inside
Your space suit trip

It’s time, it’s time
To take a flight across the sky
It’s time, it’s time
To fly away into the night

Going up and down again
You are jumping on the Moon
Going up and down again
You are jumping on the Moon
Again, again

Lights are flashing, gravity’s gone
Dancing crazy all night long
Zero-G, we lose control
Bounce forever, rock and roll

Going up and down again
You are jumping on the Moon
Going up and down again
You are jumping on the Moon
Again, again

Again!

On the Moon

Inspired by someone we know really well who once dreamed of being rich and famous all around the world as a porn star 😏. Don’t worry, we’re not naming names… but this track is a nod to that wild dream (if you like this track, especially the guitar, you might find it really interesting to check out this sort of behind-the-scenes track https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/do-what-a-mess-you-like-instrumental and read the gear we used in the description 😉).
Do What You Like kicks off and closes with a couple of very convincing moans from Mary (well, maybe actually 3!) 😅, channeling her inner pornstar. And finally, she's back in the spotlight with her electric guitars! She went full pedalboard mad, filling a 40 sqm (430 sq ft) living room with pedals, EQs, and effects until it basically turned into a no-move zone! You literally couldn’t step without tripping over something.😆
This isn’t a moral lecture on porn, just a little warning: chasing something can come back to bite you later, especially if your goals change. So yeah… think twice, live loud, but keep an eye on the future.
Energetic, upbeat, punchy alt-rock with groovy bass, tight drums, fiery guitar riffs, and scorching guitar solos, with a vibe that’s equal parts garage and fun chaos (…at least we think so, we’re not really good at pinning down genres!).
Have fun listening, and we’ll catch you in the comments if you feel like it!
Thanks everyone!
And… as we often say (not just a saying)… love you all! 💖

Lyrics:

A porn star
a wannabe porn star
a porn star
so rich and famous
all around the world

Do what you like
do what you love
but don’t waste your life
if you’re feeling unsure

Be sure to think twice
about everything you do
that kind of stuff
you just can’t undo

Just set your life free
and do the things you like
but please make sure
it’s not just a spike

Make up your mind
do it for your life
for the future day
when you have a child

Living
like you
might not be
their ideal
They could, they could
be someone
meant to replace
your embrace
dear

Do what you like
do what you love
but don’t waste your life
if you’re feeling unsure

Be sure to think twice
about everything you do
that kind of stuff
you just can’t undo

Check your point of view
the sky isn’t always blue
for everything you do
there will come a storm or two

You are no longer a child
and now your life is wild
it looks like a mess
got something to confess?

Living
like you
might not be
their ideal
They could
be someone
meant to replace
your embrace
dear

Do What You Like

OK, since you guys are enjoying the guitar (or rather, the guitars) in "Do What You Like" 🎸(https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/do-what-you-like) so much, and since you were also curious to actually see the mess that created this sound, here you go! This is basically the “making of” the song, mainly based on a part that was later discarded, complete with a rather comical little sketch and Mary at some point asking Tom to switch to another effects chain (switch, switch! Well, that’s how she puts it!), plus a bunch of other nonsense we’re deeply ashamed of and really shouldn’t be releasing to the whole world ! Oh well… goodbye decency, and goodbye ears for you all (it’s all in English and the laughs are interplanetary… the only word in Italian is Tom’s “basta!” at the end, which means “enough!”)!😂
Oh, by the way, some of you asked about the effects chain we used. Well, maybe we’ll update this description later (time permitting, with our day jobs and three other songs in the making!), and reveal a bit more! Cheers!🫶

Do What a Mess You Like (Instrumental)

This time we’re taking a different approach, focusing on Tom’s chest voice and music that fits the mood. "No Man’s Sky" is a mix of cosmic and intimate: it uses space imagery (void, stars, silence, infinity) to talk about inner or relational distance. It’s not necessarily a romantic relationship, it could be between two people, two friends, two souls. But the message is that even in the midst of emptiness and distance, there’s an unbreakable bond.
The “No Man’s Sky” here isn’t the video game, but a metaphor for a vast, boundless space where no one can live. Yet inside this “no man’s sky” there’s still a connection: two hearts beating or dreaming together, despite everything.
There’s strong melancholy (silence, coldness, broken stars), but also hidden hope: the idea that connection endures beyond distance.
It’s an atmospheric ballad, suspended between science fiction and the deepest human feeling.
We sincerely hope you enjoy it! Catch you in the comments, love you all!! 🫶

Lyrics:

Just a tiny dot in space
like a star too far away
we are drifting in the dark
with an endless void between us

No man’s sky…
a silence all around us
No man’s sky…
cold and endless, wide apart
Yet our hearts still beat as one
in this no man’s sky

Lonely shadows in the night
fading voices, fading light
this distance never dies
it lingers in our souls
it won’t fade away

No man’s sky…
a sorrow hanging over us
No man’s sky…
empty heavens, broken stars
Yet our hearts still dream as one
in this no man’s sky

Even bound forever
we are unseen
just two distant sparks
in eternity
and still…
we remain…

No man’s sky…
an endless space between us
No man’s sky…
so far, yet never gone
No man’s sky…
we are one
in this no man’s sky

No Man's Sky

Rapture is a new collaboration between the Beating Edge and Joe Stroffolino, following the awesome 'Asteroids (The Original Was Better) (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/asteroids-the-original-was). Joe wrote both the lyrics and the original music, while the Beating Edge rearranged and recorded it in a punchy rock style, adding driving guitars, strong rhythm, and dynamic choruses. Vocals feature Tom on lead, with Joe and Mary contributing both backing vocals and lead parts on certain verses and the bridge, creating a layered and energetic vocal texture.
The song explores the absurdity and irony of doomsday prophecies, the obsession with the rapture, and the endless cycle of believers and false prophets. It blends satirical storytelling with a critical eye on human behavior, delivering a mix of humor, intensity, and thought-provoking commentary through energetic rock arrangements.
Rapture is a track that engages both the mind and the ears, combining narrative, power, and fun in equal measure.
Edit: In the meantime, Joe has released his amazing acoustic version of this song! Don’t miss it! 🫶 https://soundcloud.com/joseph-stroffolino/e8ccb0a6-eda9-457d-89d9-6bbbfbbd038b

Lyrics:

These prophets who say the world's gonna end and they set a specific date
And then when it doesn't happen, their followers still think they're great
The sun rises the next morning and people stumble out of bed
Disappointed that the rapture didn't happen and they're still alive instead of dead

All these people going through the motions, trying to deal with the daily grind
Hoping the rapture comes soon and they're not the ones who are left behind

They claim they have a direct line to God but there was a glitch in the connection
But now they're certain of the expiration date so they issue a correction
The shepherd guides the flock and tries to keep them safe from harm
But how many times can you cry wolf before people ignore your alarm

All these people going through the motions, trying to deal with the daily grind
Hoping the rapture comes soon and they're not the ones who are left behind

Who cares about the environment if you think the world is gonna end
And you're convinced the second coming is right around the bend
So drill baby drill and chop down all the plants and trees
No need to spend money on curing terrible disease

In every generation throughout history, people were certain that the rapture would come
And they had followers willing to believe them as they fed them each a tiny crumb
In baseball you only get three strikes and then the umpire says you're out
But when it comes to doomsday prophecies, the true believers have no doubt

All these people going through the motions, trying to deal with the daily grind
Hoping the rapture comes soon and they're not the ones who are left behind

Rapture

Here's a heartfelt tribute to a beloved woman we lost. Created on the anniversary of her passing, this piece is a reflection on love, memory, and the quiet hope of reunion. Entirely produced and mixed by Tom, it carries a solemn yet tender farewell.. until we meet again!🫡🖤

Last Melody (Instrumental)

Hey music people! 🎸
Here we are with a new track! Well, it’s actually not brand new: we wrote and recorded it over 3 years ago, way before we got on SoundCloud. Now we’ve re-recorded and polished it quite a bit, and here it is.😊
Evolution (Talking With the Past) is a journey through time and generations, exploring memories, changes, and reflections on the past. From ’99 to 2026, we tell how time flies, taking away everything that seemed eternal, but leaving moments of real emotion, energy, and life. It’s a mix of nostalgia and pure energy, with guitars, synths, and a solid groove that we hope will make you feel it.😌
We hope you enjoy it at least a little, and if you feel like it, drop a comment! We’d really love to hear what you think!🙌
Next track, we’ll reconnect with our Apocalyptic Trilogy, complete with a video (probably going to be age-restricted on YouTube, considering the oceans of blood 😅) and some bloopers. Let’s see what comes out of it.
Oh, and a little spoiler: for Halloween we’re working on a song in Italian (don’t worry, we’ll post the English translation too!).
Enjoy! Love you all! 🫶

Lyrics:

Greetings
here’s two thousand five
we are so free and so alive
for this
this life we live

Hey
so what’s up?
this
is twenty twenty-five
Goodbye

Hey
we can’t believe this
this
this thing
this thing is real
(Wow)

Talking
with the past
they were doing
all their best
but time
is passing by
flying away
wave goodbye
Goodbye

Hey you guys
it’s ’99
all the drama
now is coming back
right into our heads
bringing back
the mess in our lives

Hello dudes
the millennium now is past
and things are going mad
the year now is two thousand twenty

Talking
with the past
they were doing
all their best
but time
is passing by
flying away
wave goodbye

The pandemic hit
and the world paused
our lives rewrote

Hey
here’s two thousand twenty-six
the world keeps spinning
free to die

Now
there’s nothing we can do
you’re just following us
and in a not-so-far day
you will say what we say
you will look at your past
and realize that
all the good things you had
now are memories in the past

Talking
with the past
they were doing
all their best
but time
is passing by
flying away
wave goodbye

Goodbye!

🔊This track is an instrumental version of our song here: https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/lets-die-tonight
Listen to the final chapter here: https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/left-for-dead and here: https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/chip-for-dead-instrumental-chiptune
Here we are with an appetizer! We’re picking up our “Apocalyptic Trilogy” (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/sets/apocalyptic-trilogy)  with a recap! This instrumental track is actually a variation of the one heard during Carl’s speech at the end of “Let’s Die Tonight”, which introduced the zombie theme of the song that will close the trilogy!
We want to point out that watching the video will be just as fun (…or maybe more traumatizing, depending on your taste!) as listening to the song alone! 
This instrumental recap also hides a few details worth discovering in the video, which we highly recommend watching, since it doesn’t just include scenes from “Everything Changed” and “Let’s Die Tonight” (the first two songs of the “Apocalyptic Trilogy”), but also gives a few hints of the upcoming track, titled 🔊“Left for Dead”🧟‍♂️, coming out in a couple of days.
Have fun!!🤟
PS: Have you seen the cover art??? Someone save our guitarist from the zombies! 😂🤯

The World Dies Tonight (Instrumental)

Official Music Video

⚠️WARNING: don’t even think about missing this – watch the video on YouTube! 🎬 Here: https://youtu.be/P2ARL50HuoU

Here we go with Left for Dead, the real ending of our Apocalyptic Trilogy (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/sets/apocalyptic-trilogy)!
Be sure to watch the video, because this song without its video is like night without day, it just doesn’t make sense!
The video opens in the best possible way with the amazing Carl (@thebeautifuldark) and Joe Stroffolino (@joseph-stroffolino), who kick off a fun little intro. So yes, this is a true Italy–Ireland–USA production.🇮🇹🇮🇪🇺🇸
Left for Dead follows Everything Changed (But Me) [https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/everything-changed-but-me]  and Let’s Die Tonight [https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/lets-die-tonight], plus the instrumental interlude The World Dies Tonight [https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/the-world-dies-tonight], all connected by the same storyline. This is one continuous apocalypse that’s finally coming to an end, is it right? Make sure to watch the video all the way to the end, because there are several little surprises for the most attentive viewers.🤯
And speaking of the end of the world, while we’re showing a comet entering our solar system, in real life the mysterious Atlas/3I has actually arrived from who knows where. Not only that, the Lemmon comet is now visible to the naked eye. When we started the Apocalyptic Trilogy, nobody had even heard of either of them. Creepy timing, right?😱😂
Also, Joe is experimenting with a new idea for a song of his own in the intro, something he plans to turn into a full track and release on SoundCloud soon. Just a little peek behind the scenes while we bring you the apocalypse.
Have fun!! And let’s hope YouTube doesn’t censor the video for a few hectoliters of digital blood! 😅
Ah, this is NOT related to the game with a similar name, just full-on zombie chaos!🤟
Have fun!!!🫶

Lyrics:

Woke up in a church with no god left inside
My hands still shake, but I’m holding the line
Heard screams in the dark, but they sounded like mine
This city’s a grave, and I live in the cracks

She smiled with half a jaw, said "you got a light?"
The dead don't burn, they just dance through the night
I carved out a path with a bat and regret
Left my name on the wall, it just said: “Not Yet.”

Left for dead, but I’m not done breathing
Shadows howl, but I keep on leaving
No prayer, no plan, just bleeding
We were left for dead…
But we won’t die yet.

We ran out of time, then we broke all the clocks
Buried our fears under ammo and rocks
She hummed an old song with her back to the fire
Said "If they get me, shoot me... but aim a bit higher."

Left for dead, but the fire’s still feeding
Bones may snap, but hearts keep beating
No priest, no cure, just needing
We were left for dead…
But we’re still not dead.

This ain’t salvation, it’s just bad luck with a gun
And a backpack full of jokes we forgot how to run
But I’d rather die with them than live as one of “them”
So load up, lock in, here we go again.

Left for dead, and the sky keeps falling
Friends are ghosts, but I hear them calling
One by one, still crawling
We were left for dead…
But we keep on walking!

Left for Dead

Here we go with Chip for Dead, an intense metal instrumental version of Left for Dead (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/left-for-dead) with a Chiptune twist (here you can find our Chiptune tracks: https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/sets/8-bit-vibes)!🔊 

You might have caught a sneak peek during the Bloopers in the Left for Dead video on YouTube (https://youtu.be/P2ARL50HuoU?si=Xs6FgJy8K1hpt5DM).

This track officially closes what we’ve been calling the Apocalyptic Trilogy (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/sets/apocalyptic-trilogy), though with the two instrumentals included, it’s really more of a Pentalogy (..does this word exist?)! Three main songs and two instrumental variations, all tied together in one epic saga.

Tom gave a hand with the synths on this one while focusing on production instead of vocals, and we’d love to hear what you think about this new twist in the comments below.
We’ll be back at the end of the month with a special Halloween track… in Italian (don’t worry, we’ll post the English translation too!).
Love you all! 🫶

Chip for Dead (Instrumental - Chiptune)

Here we go again! 🎃 After listening to the song (maybe 2 or 3 times, so you’ll lose your mind and be perfectly ready for Halloween!)… go check out the video! This time we’re not in it, it’s a real ridiculous cartoon! 👉 https://youtu.be/_1hK8-2omFQ

OK, now it’s time to let you hear Beating Edge in the most beautiful language in the world (yeah, we know it’s subjective, but many say so anyway)! 
Our new track "Un Cavaliere Medievale" tells the story of a resurrected medieval knight, brought back to life by five crazy people (who knows who they are?😂), trying to survive the chaos of the modern world. It’s absurd, darkly funny, and just perfect for Halloween vibes. 

📝Below the Italian lyrics you’ll find the best possible English translation (we tried, we swear!). And since it’s Halloween, we’ve decided to commit artistic suicide, because with a ridiculous Italian song, SoundCloud’s algorithm will probably bless us with, what, 10 plays? Maybe 11 if we’re lucky! But hey, it’s the season for scary things, so let’s kill off these Beating Edge once and for all with the Italian language!!! 💀 

Enjoy the madness, and if your ears start bleeding, it’s not our fault… must be some ghost you didn’t listen to! Love you all (...in a very spooky way)!!! 🖤👻
Don’t forget to like, comment, and share… if you survive till the end 😈

Lyrics:

🇮🇹[Italiano]

Io ero un cavaliere medievale
Ma la mia origine non era nobiliare
Sgobbavo come un animale
Con venti chili d’armatura sulle scale

Poi un colpo secco e finì la mia storia
Polvere e ossa, perduta la memoria
Ora arrivano cinque menti ribelli
Con magie e rumori che fan tremare i miei capelli

Io sono un cavaliere medievale!
Non potete scalfirmi né farmi del male!
Io sono il cavaliere di ’sti folli,
Risorto a caso tra scheletri e polli!

Il mondo moderno è un vero casino
I cavalli spariti, mi date un motorino?
Le luci, i telefoni, i rumori strani
Io combatto ancora… ma senza compagni

Io sono un cavaliere medievale!
Non potete scalfirmi né farmi del male!
Io sono il cavaliere di ’sti folli,
Risorto a caso tra scheletri e polli!

E se pensate di avermi sconfitto
Ricordate… torno sempre dal conflitto!
La musica è la mia magia, la mia maledizione
E vi perseguito… in ogni canzone!


🇬🇧🇺🇸English Translation
[A Medieval Knight]

I was a medieval knight
But I wasn’t born noble
I worked my tail off like a beast
Wearing armor that felt like a ton on my back

Then a single blow ended my story
Dust and bones, my memory gone
Now five crazy people show up
With magic and noises that make my head spin

I am a medieval knight!
You can’t hurt me or do me harm!
I’m the knight of these fools,
Brought back to life among skeletons and chickens!

The modern world is a total mess
No horses in sight, can someone lend me a scooter?
The lights, the phones, all the strange noises
I still fight… but without any companions

I am a medieval knight!
You can’t hurt me or do me harm!
I’m the knight of these fools,
Brought back to life among skeletons and chickens!

And if you think you’ve defeated me
Remember… I always rise back into battle!
Music is my magic, my curse
And I’ll haunt you… in every song!

Un Cavaliere Medievale

OK… this time, something serious. 🫡 
We even put together a short movie as a video to accompany the song, don’t miss it: https://youtu.be/KK_VV5t1XhU
We are releasing "This Is the Way Our Love Goes" at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month to honor and remember. 🕊️
The song tells the story of two lovers torn apart by World War I, a love that endures through pain, distance and the madness of war.
Listen to the song and remember those who never came back.
Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments, we’ll be there.
Love you all! 🫶

Lyrics:

This Is the Way Our Love Goes

This is the way our love goes
through all the days
through all the days
through all the nights
against all the odds

This is the way our love goes
facing all this pain
crying in the rain
waiting for you, my love

Since this war has begun, my love
my heart is beating for you
and all my love, and all my life
are one and the same, just for you, my love

This is the way our love goes
now it’s not the time
now it’s only time for war

This is the way our love goes
through all this strife
through the end of this war

Since this war has begun, my love
my heart is beating for you, my love
and all my life is now one with your life
my only love

This is the way our love goes
through all the days
through all the nights
against all the odds

This is the way our love goes
facing all this pain
crying in the rain
desperately waiting for you

Until the end of this doom

This Is the Way Our Love Goes

Surprise, surprise! 🫢 Here’s a version of our “November Blues” that’s as unexpected as it is imperfect (recorded, "produced", and ..."mixed"😂 in a couple of hours, if not less), released exactly one year ago (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/november-blues). Now you can listen to it in a kind of unplugged version… complete with a (..just for a change) post-song idiot fail!
Love you all!🫶

Lyrics:

Old man with his beard so long
Grumbling like he's got a wrong song
Every November he's feeling down
You'd think there was no joy to be found

Walking streets with furrowed brow
He's got a secret but not for now
Smoke from the chimney fills the air
But he just sits back in his chair

November blues they grip him tight
Haunted dreams in the silent night
He abhors the season that's yet to come
Till he’s numb and glum

Neighbors smile and wave hello
He nods back but his heart's in woe
December's creeping like a ruthless thief
Stirring up his hidden grief

Kids with their letters and hopeful eyes
Unaware of his deep disguise
He hates November for what it brings
And all that shiny Christmas bling

November blues they grip him tight
Haunted dreams in the silent night
He abhors the season that's yet to come
Till he’s numb and glum

November blues they grip him tight
Haunted dreams in the silent night
He abhors the season that's yet to come
Till he’s numb and glum

November Blues Unplugged

Between snatches of time, while we’re working on a full-fledged song with a video (…we should make it by next Friday!), we pulled out a Chiptune instrumental version of our song “In the Future” (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/in-the-future). 
Mary and Tom weren’t needed this time, so of course they ended up taking care of production and mixing. The song was recently also released on the mainstream (https://ffm.to/in-the-future). 
Who knows, in the end you might find yourself humming it!😜

In the Chiptune Future

In the Chiptune Future (Instrumental - Chiptune)

Official Music Video: https://youtu.be/vKiLtzDInXs
We wrote this track trying to imagine what it feels like for people who once made music in a real, organic way, then discovered how easy it is to use AI to pump out songs and make fast profit.
Some of them even deny using AI vocals… even though the same two-to-four AI voice timbres show up across basically all AI-generated songs, not just in one profile. Anyone who listens a lot can recognize them instantly.
And the ironic part? Many musicians go under those tracks and write huge compliments about the “amazing vocals,” taking them at face value.
We’re not anti-AI. AI exists and it's here to stay.
We’re against the indiscriminate and unregulated use of AI that disrespects the work of people who actually make music.
This song isn’t a rant.
It’s satire. A snapshot. A reminder that creativity still matters… no matter what trend is taking over.
Peace, joy… and above all, ethical AI for everyone.😉

Lyrics:

Oh-oh, oh-oh...
She’s singin’ better than we are,
AI killed the human star.

We stayed up late, the room was loud,
cheap beer, bad takes, a faithful crowd.
Now every song’s a perfect clone,
she types the notes, I check my phone.

We used to bleed to make it shine,
now she does it in half the time.

AI killed the human star,
no pulse, no soul, just perfect art.
Plug her in, she steals my part,
and somehow makes it sound like heart.

I miss the cracks, the out-of-key,
the shaky hands, the “damn, that’s me.”
Now every chord is tight and clean,
like something built inside a dream.

She learns the pain, but not the sweat,
I play along, she wins the bet.

AI killed the human star,
she took my voice, she took my scars.
Now all my ghosts are on her drive,
she sings them back, too much alive.

We built her drunk on coffee grounds,
she took the throne, we lost the sound.
Now I’m just lines inside a file,
she smiles, and makes it worth a while.

AI killed the human star,
but damn, she makes it sound bizarre.
Maybe we’re the ones to blame,
for givin’ her our fire and name.

Oh-oh, oh-oh...
AI killed the human star.

She killed it good!
Yeah! Not for us!

AI Killed the Human Star

Just a test to prove to ourselves that you can get the same plays here with a ridiculous instrumental track composed and recorded in 20 minutes as with a solid sung track recorded in 2 months!
Because when SoundClown’s shitty algorithm ignores you, anything you upload gets at most 200 plays, which earns you like 2 bucks in 10 years, while the Clowns get rich off millions of Artist Pro subscriptions from us poor fools! At this point we’re almost at the same level of crap as Sporkify!
Love you all… but SoundClown!🫡

Let’s kick off this final month of the year by closing the AI-music chapter once and for all, at least as far as we’re concerned. The die is cast now, there’s no turning back, only moving forward. And we move forward by offering you this playful Chiptune version of our recent "AI Killed the Human Star" (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/ai-killed-the-human-star). This time the AI kills Chiptune too! What a world!
See you on Friday with an unusual Christmas song. 🎄🪩

AI Killed the Chiptune Star (Instrumental - Chiptune)

Empty Bells is our take on the side of Christmas no one likes to talk about. No fake joy, no shiny masks… just a straight indie-rock vibe that cuts through the noise. Guitars carry the mood, the rhythm stays tight, and the vocals keep everything raw and real.
Hope you like it at least a bit, and let us know in the comments.🫡
The next track will be totally Christmas-y and carefree, with a pretty wild video showing us as tired and pissed-off Santa’s elves!

Lyrics:

Snow piles up on cracked sidewalks
Lights hang crooked, blinking like they don’t care
We sit around pretending to laugh
While someone’s pain drifts past the window, ignored

Candles burn down to nothing
Prayers whispered only when it hurts
We dress up for a few hours, then disappear
Back to the mess we call life

Stop waiting for tragedy to make you good
Stop giving gifts like it fixes the world
The bells sound empty in the cold night
Say what you mean, or don’t say a thing

Kids unwrap boxes they don’t need
Adults toast to ghosts of regrets they can’t face
We sing carols loud, hoping the noise hides the quiet
But the quiet remembers everything

Candles burn down to nothing
Prayers whispered only when it hurts
We dress up for a few hours, then disappear
Back to the mess we call life

Stop waiting for tragedy to make you good
Stop giving gifts like it fixes the world
The bells sound empty in the cold night
Say what you mean, or don’t say a thing
(Just shut up)

Snow falls on streets that don’t forgive
Every wrapped box a lie we tell ourselves
Time to stop acting, to finally see
The Christmas we’ve buried under our own hands

Stop waiting for tragedy to make you good
Stop giving gifts like it fixes the world
The bells sound empty in the cold night
Say what you mean, or don’t say a thing
(Just please shut up)

Snow piles up on cracked sidewalks
Maybe this year, we’ll finally keep...
No more hiding

Empty Bells

We loved Joe's song (https://soundcloud.com/joseph-stroffolino/old-saint-nick) so much - the one he wrote, sang, and we had the pleasure to play, produce, and mix - that we just had to make a chiptune version! Meet Old Saint Chip, a tiny 8-bit adventure through Saint Nick’s legendary bones. Plug in your headphones, maybe sit next to an old NES or C64, and enjoy the pixelated holiday vibes!🎅🏻🕹️🎄

Instrumental hump day with another Chiptune (…and yeah, we know, boring, but chill, it’s just for Christmas 😆)! This time it’s one of our Christmas songs released exactly a year ago (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/santa-the-gunslinger). Santa gets downgraded from gunslinger to… well, you decide what chipslinger means (..and let us know in the comments)! 😂

In this extended version of Old Saint Nick we finally added all the things we wanted from the start but didn’t have time for. There’s a lovely intro by Mauro using Omnisphere, some backing vocals from Tom who handled production and mix, and a final instrumental section to put the cherry on top of this amazing musical cake created by the awesome Joe Stroffolino (https://soundcloud.com/joseph-stroffolino/old-saint-nick), of which we carved out a delicious Chiptune slice (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/old-saint-chip-instrumental-chiptune)!

Lyrics:

St Nicholas was born in Turkey in the fourth century AD.
He became the bishop of Myra, and was known for his generosity.
They say he tossed three bags of gold into a poor family's dwelling,
And he raised three boys from the dead — it’s a legend, but it sure sounds compelling.

How did a man who lived in Turkey,
In a land that’s warm and sunny,
End up in the North Pole with flying reindeer
If you think about it, it’s kind of funny.

Nicholas died of old age in Myra in the year three forty-three.
They buried him in a tomb expecting him to rest eternally.
The years went by, the tales grew taller and his legend continued to grow,
And it was a fact that relics of a saint could earn you quite a bit of dough.

It’s good to give gifts to family and friends,
And people in need,
But sometimes it feels
Like we’re being manipulated
To buy things we don't need.

In 1087, there were sailors in two cities, Venice and Bari.
They decided they wanted St Nicholas's bones so they raced across the Adriatic Sea.
The sailors from Bari got there first and they took those bones by force and deception.
They brought them back to Bari and they were greeted with a heroic reception.

You can take all the bad parts of the story that happen in real life,
Remove the uncomfortable dark parts and keep only the light.
We sing our Christmas carols and say it’s the most magical time of the year.
For a few days we ignore all the bad stuff as we spread the Christmas cheer.

Old Saint Nick, Old Saint Nick, he tried to help those in need.
Old Saint Nick, Old Saint Nick, now he’s a mascot for corporate greed.
Old Saint Nick, Old Saint Nick, he tried so hard to help the poor.
Now he’s a giant plastic figurine who smiles as you walk into the big box store.

As we sit there ripping the paper off our presents underneath the Christmas tree,
It’s good to remember there are people out there who are less fortunate than you and me.
Maybe we can be a little bit more like Old Saint Nick — maybe we can.
Maybe we can be a little bit more like Old Saint Nick.

Old Saint Nick Extended Version

*Update: since some of you have been asking us privately who’s singing, let’s clear it up. Tom sings the entire song, going from baritone to tenor (maybe even soprano 😓) throughout the track, and not just in this song! 😂 Mary did some backing vocals, but all the main parts are Tom. 🤟

📣Here we are again with an unexpected upload, born from some random experiments that turned out way too good to be thrown in the trash… the Mac trash, obviously 😅
Headlines is inspired by a chiptune melody that likely dates back to the early 90s, at least as far as our keyboard player remembers, though even that isn’t completely certain. The track comes from the demoscene era, but the original title and author are unknown to us and may have been lost over time, so proper credit isn’t possible.
No samples were used. The melody was replayed, rearranged and completely reworked into a new song with a modern production and original vocals.
Too good to be left in a drawer, so here it is.
And stay tuned… in a few days we’ll be back with our new (and last) Christmas song, along with a very fun video where we’ll turn into Santa’s elves! 🎄🧝‍♂️🧝‍♀️
This song is available exclusively on SoundCloud.

Lyrics:

Do you already know this song?
Yeah, you know it
(Oh yeah)
Are you ready to sing along
to this song?

Let's go!

Everywhere I go
I'm hearing this tune
'Cause all the songs sound the same 
nothing feels new

But this one’s got something fresh
We made it loud, we made it real
Way better than
all that noise around

Someone’s even cloning us
So we can blast this track
all over the world
and up in space 
yeah, space!

The headlines now all say:
"Time stands still!"
There’s only one song left
spinning around
Someone's even trying to kill
all our clones
To shut this anthem down
all over the globe

And we’re trying to stay sane
But this is insane
Can’t even leave the house
the doors are locked
Someone said “That’s enough”
Now silence reigns
There’s no more sound 
real music is gone

Youtubers and AIers everywhere
This must be some kind of fever dream
It’s way too much - we’ve had enough

So give us all your strength
your power, your hopes, your dreams
And tell us where you wanna go
for real!

We’re fighting hard to keep alive
the soul of real sound
We’ll make your dreams
the next headlines

Youtubers and trappers everywhere
This must be some kind of fever dream
It’s way too much - we’ve had enough

So give us all your strength
your power, your hopes, your dreams
And tell us where you wanna go
for real!

Bye bye!

This song comes with a video you really shouldn’t miss… or maybe you really shouldn’t watch it at all… that way we’ll be a little less embarrassed 😝… your call! 
A Christmas song told from the elves’ point of view… and they’re not exactly in a good mood.
While Santa sips hot cocoa by the fire, the elves are freezing, exhausted, and one “Ho Ho Ho!” away from losing it.🤪
Fast, absurd, and super catchy, this track is more of a fun jam than a sugary Christmas postcard.
Lazy elves, endless lists, wrong GPS directions, and a Santa who might just need to chill out for a second.😜
No lessons, no morals… just a Christmas song made to have fun, laugh a bit, and nod your head. 
Anyway, Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone 🎄🎸🫶

Lyrics:

We’ve been up since half past two,  
Glue on our fingers, tape in our hair.  
Santa walks in with that bossy look 
Like, dude, we know you’re there.  
He’s got his cocoa, feet by the fire,  
We’re knee-deep in snow and pain,  
One more “Ho Ho Ho!” from him  
And I’ll lose my tiny brain.  

We’re not lazy, just exhausted,  
And the cookies? Yeah, we lost it.  

Santa, chill out, take a break!  
You’re driving us nuts for Christmas’ sake!  
We’ve done the toys, the bows, the drums,  
Now let us nap before we’re crumbs!  
Santa, chill out, come along,  
We turned your list into a song!  
We’re elves, not robots, what the hey  
It’s Christmas time, let’s play!  

He says, “Pick it up, no time to waste!”  
While eating cake right in our face.  
We built your sleigh back in July,  
Now even Rudolph’s asking “Why?”  
Your GPS says “South, not North,”  
We’re like, “Bro, maybe check your course?”  
If toys get lost this year again,  
We’ll blame your beard, of course.  
 
We’re the crew that makes it run,  
But man, we just want some fun!  

Santa, chill out, take a break!  
You’re driving us nuts for Christmas’ sake!  
We’ve done the toys, the bows, the drums,  
Now let us nap before we’re crumbs!  
Santa, chill out, come along,  
We turned your list into a song!  
We’re elves, not robots, what the hey   
It’s Christmas time, let’s play!  

Hey Santa, hear us out 
Your workshop’s got a burnout!  
You want your elves alive and loud?  
Then let us form a band, be proud!  

Santa, chill out, take a break!  
We’re spinning out for Christmas’ sake!  
We’ll sing, we’ll dance, we’ll shout hooray,  
And call it Christmas anyway!  
Santa, chill out, can’t you see?  
This mess is all your legacy!  
Now grab that cocoa, don’t delay,  
It’s Christmas time, let’s play!

Santa Chill Out

Here we are again with a really innovative and experimental track: a Chiptune cover of Jingle Bells with some wild electric guitar parts! Jokes aside, this is probably the first real cover we’ve ever posted on SoundCloud. Actually, it’s mostly just an excuse to wish you all a happy holiday season!
Have a great Christmas🎄, and catch us this weekend with our last song of 2025, all about New Year’s.
Love you all!

Pixel Bells (Instrumental - Chiptune - Jingle Bells Cover)

🎸We are a five-piece studio band mixing different genres and influences into our own sound.
📝About our future: we’ll be leaving Spotify (and probably all the other mainstream platforms too) in the next few months.
You’ll be able to find us here, at least in theory. We’ll see.  We have real lives and real jobs outside of music, light-years away from it. Everything has been starting to feel forced and heavy. Better to focus on real life and let music take the spot it deserves: just for fun and free time.🫡

Members:
Tom (vocals, occasional keys/guitar)
Mary (guitar, backing vocals)
Mauro (keyboards, piano, synths, winds)
Davide (bass, synth bass)
Valerio (drums, percussion)

The band has existed since 2015, but we only started publishing on SoundCloud in 2024 (actually since 2016, but we wiped everything in the early 2020s.. we can show you screenshots of our insights if you don’t believe us, and follow the motto: “if an artist didn’t exist before 2023, it’s AI). Many of the songs we’ve released so far are reboots of tracks we wrote years ago, in case you were wondering how we managed to release over 100 tracks in one year. Before 2024 our audience was limited to a few hundred friends and acquaintances.
We’re not professional musicians! We have other jobs, and we don’t even consider ourselves musicians, at most entertainers and awareness-raisers.

⚡️We do not authorize the use of our music, voices or recordings for AI training or generative purposes without our written consent.
