Really cool upbeat feel. I'm hearing a little 80's vibe for some reason, along with today's FX. Yes, I'm that old lol. Keep it coming guys.....

Hey you all, love this song! Sounds like a synth pop tune from the '80s. Just my cup of tea. Really catchy melodies and compelling chord structure. Love how the chorus is in the major mode and the verse in the minor. That creates wonderful tension. Awesome work here, everyone!

So Much Creativity on this COOL Track Guys !!!! Love It !!!!! :-)

excellent.  One of the reasons I really like your music is your 80' sound - when real musicans made real good dance music!

Oh Wow , this is fantastic guys , you never fail to deliver my friends !

The lyrics seem somewhat dystopian, yet hopeful.  This is a great musical expression of curiosity and hope for what is to come, fantastic  job with the music and songwriting!  Love it!

Je  n'ai pas osé
tendrement t'enlacer
réchauffer tes mains glacées

Lyrics:
stop motion seems like it's haunted
seems right but feels like it's daunting 
vacations not what I wanted
I don't need to get away
the distance is dawning 
this moment is raw yet two sided
I'm blue but a abiding
because hiding inside is so
very exciting

arise
seven more days till the sky
reddens and covers the light
don't cover your eyes
or sto in the cupboard for they know you hide now
the harder it is the longer you bide time
holding the line
thing in the ruins with muscular vines
twining testicular grapes up the spine
of those who would try
to save us from evil when evils a
I said evils alive
from evil when evils a
I said evils alive

"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

The time we have to live and be with our loved ones is actually very short, but there are many people who ruin it by destroying themselves. I wish I wasn't like that.

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!

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)!

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 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)

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

Into the Abyss (2025) – Calling out fake friends
At some point in life, we all come across fake friends, who pretend to care and drag you into the abyss. The lyrics channel the raw frustration of being used, betrayed and misled. "Into The Abyss" is a cathartic scream for justice, a metalcore song that pulls no punches, when it comes to calling out toxic people.

Into the Abyss

Into the Abyss (feat. Daniel Hiatt)

Million Times

Back when mornings felt like magic
Running wild through open fields
Chasing shadows in the sunlight
Nothing heavy, nothing real

Schoolyard laughter in the distance
Backpack swinging side to side
Every day a brand-new story
No storms to face, no need to hide

Oh, to be carefree again
To live without the weight we carry now
Oh, to feel wonder again
Like children drawing dreams across the clouds
If only we could all return
To the world we knew back then
Where the fears had no names
And the light never dimmed

Climbing trees to touch the heavens
Building castles out of air
Simple joys in every moment
Never knowing what wasn’t fair

Growing up, the world grew louder
But the child inside remains
Wishing life could stay that simple
Free from all the hidden pains

Oh, to be carefree again
To live without the weight we carry now
Oh, to feel wonder again
Like children drawing dreams across the clouds
If only we could all return
To the world we knew back then
Where the fears had no names
And the light never dimmed



Carefree Again

A bold, empowering anthem about living louder, taking chances, and refusing to wait for permission. High energy and contagious.

Repost page for Ultrasonic Pest Repellent.  This is where I will repost tracks and make playlists.

🎸We are a five-piece studio band mixing different genres and influences into our own sound.
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 and other platforms in 2024. 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 we only published on our own blog (which is now gone, replaced by a new one we barely use), so 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.
