Unbelievable. Another outstanding Halloween song!! Really?

That riff at 0:56… is that keys or guitar? It’s pure money. 💰 it really shines. Vocals are mixed supreme. I’ll keep listening..

Fantastic, the mix reminds me of sounds of warm music projected  through speakers set high from the ground during annual carnival events;  there’s cool reverberation which can’t be happening in the open air.  You guys know your magic!  🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Lofi - Xmas

A very heartfelt and personal song, dedicated to those who are no longer with us. We've all lost someone we love, and with this song, we tried to translate that feeling into words and music.
For you, who have returned to being what you were before you were born! Thank you for helping us become who we are.❤️

Lyrics:

In the silence of the night
I feel your presence near
A love that's so profound
A bond that's crystal clear
Every note that I play
Every word that I sing
Is a tribute to your spirit
Like an angel's whispering

I remember your touch
So gentle and so kind
Your voice like a lullaby
Forever in my mind
Though you're no longer here
Your love will never die
With every song I write
You'll be right by my side

Oh
These memories of you
They carry me on
Through the darkest of nights
And the breaking of dawn
With every word I sing
And every note I play

In the echoes of the past
I find solace in your embrace
Your essence lingers on
In every melody I chase
Through the shadows of the night
Your spirit guides my way
In the depths of my soul
Your love will always stay

In the echoes of the past
I find solace in your embrace
Your essence lingers on
In every melody I chase
Through the shadows of the night
Your spirit guides my way
In the depths of my soul
Your love will always stay

I see you in the stars above
And in the whispers of the breeze
Your memory's a beacon
That guides me through the seas
Though time may pass us by
And seasons come and go
Your love remains eternal
A flame that continues to glow

Oh
These memories of you
They carry me on
Through the darkest of nights
And the breaking of dawn
With every word I sing
And every note I play
I'll keep your memory alive
In my heart you'll forever stay

You will live forever
in my mind
and in my heart 

Oh
These memories of you
They carry me on
Through the darkest of nights
And the breaking of dawn
With every word I sing
And every note I play
I'll keep your memory alive

In my heart
you’ll forever
stay

Memories of you

Memories of You

Surprise, surprise!
We had a couple of recordings set aside from mid-June, and in the meantime, a lot of other projects were spinning around in our heads. So, instead of tossing them out, we blended them with some crazy sounds here and there.
And so, here it is, the first instrumental track from Beating Edge!

Throught the Darkness (Descent and Ascent) [Instrumental]

Through The Darkness (Descent And Ascent) [Instrumental]

This song is part of the sailors EP: https://ffm.to/sailors-ep

This Baron is not the son of the devil, he is the devil himself

Reviewed piano and vocals, doubled the double bass, good to go!

Lyrics:
I was walking in the streets of this empty town
Staying in the shadows, my feet close  to the ground
I couldn’t hear any of the city’s usual sounds
Only a faint whispering carried by the winds

I followed the strange murmur through the city’s dark mazes
I didn’t cross any living soul in these dead empty spaces
I was drawn by a rotten stench coming from nearby
And then I saw him cross the street with his clutch and his glass eye

I tried to turn around, he was already there 
He stared into my eyes said « Mon nom est Cimetière »
Tu étais à la terre, et tu reviens à la terre
Tu appartiens à Samedi

Some have angels by their side, I have the devil in my back
A devil with a yellow grin; a devil dressed in rags
A man of thousand faces with the breath of thousand corpses
And this moment I knew he would never let me out

I gave my life to Cimetière
I gave my life to Cimetière
I gave my life to Cimetière
I gave my life to Cimetière

OK, October is the month of Halloween, and this track is what happens when you spend the night trying to create something on theme... basically, a scary track in the qualitative sense.😅 But, since we found it kind of fun, we kept it. And it paves the way for the Halloween-themed tracks that will follow ( https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/night-of-the-pumpkin-strangers, https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/haunted-cycle, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDb6G-QKLRU and https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/zombie-chef-supreme).🤪 So, consider it as an appetizer!😉

Lyrics:

On Halloween the veil is thin
Ghosts and ghouls they start to grin
Spectral pranks they rise from dirt
To scare you till your heart is hurt

Humans scream as shadows crawl
Pumpkins laugh in every hall
From dusk till dawn the terror spreads
Leaving fear inside your heads

In the haunted cycle all around
Where the living's heartbeat can't be found
Pranks so spooky set the tone
Till we all turn to bone to bone

Next year comes with eerie bloom
Spirits dancing in the gloom
Once were humans now we jest
Making mortals face their test

Boo a jump a fright tonight
Candles flicker ghostly light
Every prank a merry scare
In this loop we all must share

In the haunted cycle all around
Where the living's heartbeat can't be found
Pranks so spooky set the tone
Till we all turn to bone to bone

In the haunted cycle all around
Where the living's heartbeat can't be found
Pranks so spooky set the tone
Till we all turn to bone to bone

Haunted Cycle

Garbage Face

In the Christmas story, the wise men come from the East and follow the star of Bethlehem.
Once there, they ask:
- Where is he?
- The newborn and King of the Jews
- We have come to pay homage to him

King Herod has learnt that a rival has been born and orders an infanticide
Thanks to a warning from an angel, Mary and Joseph are able to leave for Egypt with the child in time.

The angels flap their wings together to remind the bumblebee of its colony

In winter, only the bumblebee queens from a bumblebee colony survive
Workers and drones die. Only the queen hibernates in a hole in the ground and has a reserve of honey to feed on.

Bumblebees have probably been around for 25 million years.
Mankind and its religions have only existed for a few thousand.
If bees and bumblebees are wiped out, the impact on flora and fauna will be so serious that the mass of humanity will probably only be able to survive for a few years.
So we should definitely pray for the preservation of bees and bumblebees.

Lyrics:
Someone, turned our world into white
With something, that can protect and hide
The panful loss of the sunny days, from last summer
Now it's time to play with our tiny tin toy drummers

It seems that everything is covered by a blanket
Completely embraced, cosily protected
All our worries are forgotton and our life is full of hope
Our world is slowing down, it seems to be enclosed in a snow globe

But I often think of someone, who is not mentioned in our tales
It has been in our world, much longer, than the Christchild himself
There is no sacrifice, of grains and seeds, as we give to the birds
With her golden treasure, made of honey, she would only feel disturbed

The lonely home for the Queen of the Bumblebees
Is a homely hole, deep under our Christmas tree
Where she's counting the days backwards til spring
And she's dreaming of a world, that will be greening again

And then the angels will ask: "Where is she"?
"Who has been born as the Queen of the Bumblebees"?
For we have seen her star, far in the east
And we have come down to earth, to worship her

And when the angels start sing, they buzzing with their wings
She senses cohesion and presence of her colony again
And thanked them, for giving shelter, to her family, in heaven 
On a flowerpollen cloud 

Now the flowers have faded and for the few that have gone 
To sleep underground, a hard time has come
Two feet under in the peat on this christmas eve 
- So alone!

Sometimes, when you feel lonely, in your heart
Remind the Bumblebee, she sleeps, abandon and apart
The scent of gingerbread and marzipan, cannot convince or seduce her
She waits for crocuses and snowdrops, that herald the end of winter

And she's, the one, who doesn't care what you believe
Mohammed, Jesus, Buddha or just any insane shopping disease
No gold, no myrrh or frankincense, in homage to someone
Pray for the Bumblebees instead, before it's all worthless when she's gone

The lonely home for the Queen of the Bumblebees
Is a homely hole, deep under our Christmas tree
Where she's counting the days backwards til spring
And she's dreaming of a world, that will be greening again

And then the angels will ask: "Where is she"?
"Who has been born as the Queen of the Bumblebees"?
We have followed the star, whose light shines so bright
It had lead us to her, in this holy night

And from this holy night, the days will be getting longer 
And slowly our love grows stronger and stronger
And now the christmasbells ringing and we dance and we singing 
And we get on our knees to pray for all the queens...

With all the other Bumblebees 
For her new colony 

And then she let's the bumblebells ring
And dreams of a world so green in spring
Two feet under in the peat 
On this christmas eve 
- So alone!

Sometimes life feels like an apocalyptic ride through ups and downs. Don’t despair, just enjoy the ride — with Metal Music by your side.

Apocalyptic Ride

Curiosity is a good thing in life. Think the trepidation you can have when someone gives you a wrapped box without telling you what is inside. You might be surprised and the more you unwrap the more your curiosity grows finding things inside you didn't expect.

Lyrics interpretation, here: https://beatingedge.blogspot.com/2025/08/vacant-stares-interpretation-of-lyrics.html
Here we are with our last track of the month.
Lately, Carl @thebeautifuldark has been working on some important projects to raise awareness about the indiscriminate use of AI in the world of art. This track came from deep conversations between us, exploring themes of identity, authenticity, and the growing trend of music that’s “AI-made” but never truly felt or played.

Vacant Stares is a cryptic, cult-like vision of a digital future, where prompters replace creators, and artistic expression is reduced to hollow commands.
Blank stares. Selfish prayers. Fake songs for simulated feelings.
This track is a warning. A question. A reversed ritual.
It asks you: who are you, when you no longer use your own voice?

The song is divided into two parts:

Beating Edge's part:
It’s gothic, cinematic, full of ritualistic and unsettling imagery. The atmosphere evokes abandoned temples, secret cults, carved symbols… with that sense of existential disorientation like “they’re initiating me into something but I don’t know what.”
It feels like a lucid nightmare or a hallucination induced by an intelligence simulating spirituality.
Carl’s part:
More brutal, direct, anti-establishment. Almost a rap/spoken-word poem loaded with accusations towards those who use AI in a sterile, heartless way. “Selfish prayers / Fake / Unfair” hit like punches in the gut in just four words. It’s the awakening from hypnosis.

Let’s reflect! And use AI as a tool to amplify art, not to replace it!
Love you all!🫶

Lyrics:

(Tom)

Veil of whispers, carved in stone
Guiding hands, but I'm alone
Golden masks and hollow eyes
Chanting words that crystallize

Candles flicker, shadows climb
Marble echoes bend through time
Steps resound in hollow halls
Silent lips behind the walls

And they move like ghosts through the fevered air
With their silver robes and their vacant stares
Do I kneel, do I run, do I play along?
Or is this the place where I belong?

Smoke is rising, threads unwind
Painted symbols twist my mind
Fingers trace the silent vow
No way back, it's over now

And they move like ghosts through the fevered air
With their silver robes and their vacant stares
Do I kneel, do I run, do I play along?
Or is this the place where I belong?

A voice like thunder in my head
Tells me secrets left unsaid
A crimson door, a silver knife
A choice to stay or trade my life

Lights go dim, the world dissolves
A hollow chant, a fate evolves
In the mirror, I can't see
Is that me, or what's left of me?

(Carl - The Beautiful Dark)

Vacant stares
Selfish prayers
Fake
Unfair

Unnatural wear
Expressionless
Ghost digital smile
Simulated pain
You making fake dog pile

Guesses pluggs in
Self matrix is made
Showing young kids
Their artist mind grave

Not on our watch
Sing your own feeling
Talk your reflections
Save children's true meanings

Feeding them new
They'll amplify this
They'll stay plugged out
All now's reminisce

Prompters, have that reckoning
With fake thoughts you feeding

Respect the souls of past inspire
Their spirit will help you transcend the mire

Vacant Stares

Official Music Video

Hi everyone! Since it’s Sunday and we happened to meet in the studio to say goodbye to each other, we realized completely by chance that we’ve uploaded 98 tracks on SoundCloud. So we decided to release a chiptune track to mark number 99, and then come back with the 100th song!😉

We’ll still be online for a few more hours, then we’ll take a break from SoundCloud for a while. We can’t say exactly how long. But don’t worry, we’ll be back to annoy you again!🤪

Enjoy listening, drop us a comment , and happy holidays to those who, like us, still haven’t taken them! In any case, enjoy the summer (and if you’re in the southern hemisphere, enjoy the cool weather! Sorry, dear friends in Antarctica, no joke intended!😆).

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

Love you all!🫶
Ciao!!😘
