Birthday Bash

This song was originally meant to simply tell the story of one of us meeting their soulmate during a minor car accident. However, after another member of the band had a nightmare about a gigantic flying machine crashing into a big city, the concept evolved. In the end, these two ideas were mixed together, giving birth to 'Crash and Burn' as you hear it now!

Lyrics:

So many lights
Shining bright
In the city night
Heartbeat
Racing fast
In the blink of an eye
You and I
Burning high
Like a shooting star
Love so wild
We were both on fire
Didn't see how far

Electric skies
Mesmerize
As we both collide
In a world so sweet
But a love so bittersweet
We took off
Flying high
Like a passenger plane
But we crashed and burned
In a sea of endless pain

Crash and burn
Our love destroyed
In the wreckage
We find our joy
Through the ashes
A memory stays
Love's tragic tale
In our hearts
It never fades

Crash and burn

Crash and Burn

https://youtu.be/NBm-Wp62090
A fun and quirky intergalactic adventure where a banana-shaped alien visits Earth, explores the city, crashes parties, and wins hearts with his playful spirit. A surreal and entertaining story that blends rhythm, humor, and a touch of melancholy as the alien returns to space, leaving an unforgettable memory behind.

Lyrics:

I met a banana-shaped alien from outer space
Came down to Earth
With a smile on his face
He said I come in peace
I'm just here to explore
But little did he know
What he was in for

He walked downtown
In his shiny silver suit
People looked at him like he was a hoot
He slipped on a peeling
Oh what a sight
But he just laughed it off and said
That's alright

He went to a party
Where the music was loud
Started dancing like a banana in the crowd
Everyone was amazed
They couldn't believe their eyes
A dancing alien in disguise

The alien bewildered 
Tried to make sense of it all
As humans approached him 
Some big some small
He waved his banana-shaped hands 
Trying to communicate
But the language barrier made it hard to relate

He landed in a city 
Amidst the hustle and the roar
Thinking it was just another
Place to explore
But humans were curious 
They gathered around in awe
Asking questions 
Taking pictures breaking every law

As night fell upon the city 
The alien grew tired
Of the attention 
The noise 
Feeling uninspired
He longed for the quiet of his home 
In outer space

He landed in a city 
Amidst the hustle and the roar
Thinking it was just another 
Place to explore
But humans were curious 
They gathered around in awe

And so the banana-shaped alien 
Bid Earth goodbye
Promising never again 
To fall from the sky
But in the hearts of those who saw him a memory did remain

Far gone

He landed in a city 
Amidst the hustle and the roar
Thinking it was just 
Another place to explore
But humans were curious 
They gathered around in awe
Asking questions taking pictures 
Breaking every law

And so the banana-shaped alien bid Earth goodbye
Promising never again to fall from the sky
But in the hearts of those who saw him a memory

He left the Earth to fly again 
So high
And he will never 
Forget the Earth
On his journey in the space 
Where he’ll explore

A banana-shaped alien 
They'll never ignore
His departure brings closure 
As he heads for the core
Of the cosmos
His home 
Where he'll explore

Cosmic Banana

Atomic Love is a product of our current times, reflecting the social unrest we're experiencing with the return of the arms race and the Cold War, and the ever-growing threat of global thermonuclear war. We chose the anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing as the official release date to further raise awareness about this critical issue that affects us all.

Lyrics:

All our lives are fading
In the cold dark night
All our hopes are breaking
Man, we lost the fight

In a world of shadows
Fear takes the lead
Love can't find its way
In the nuclear breed

Boom goes the night
In this atomic love
Silent hearts ignite
Under the skies above

Running through the wasteland
No place to hide
Holding on to memories
As dreams subside

In the ruins we stand
Hand in hand we pray
Hoping for tomorrow
Come what may

Boom goes the night
In this atomic love
Silent hearts ignite
Under the skies above

Running through the wasteland
No place to hide
Holding on to memories
As dreams collide

In the ruins we stand
Hand in hand we pray
Hoping for tomorrow
Come what may

Boom goes the night
In this atomic love
Silent hearts ignite
Under the skies above

Boom goes the night
In this atomic love
Silent hearts ignite
Under the skies above

Boom goes the night
Come what may

Atomic love

I dream a world of love

Take me to a place that's always bright

Oh God

A place where kindness is the rule
And every soul is free to dream
Together we'll make this our theme
A world of love, a hopeful sight

I dream of an end to wars
Take me out with your spaceship
At the speed of light
Take me to a place that's always bright

Oh God
We need you

Lyrics:

All the lights flicker no dawn
Urban glow before we're gone
Broken dreams concrete lies
Skies are black no surprise

Machines clatter, fight for breath 
Cold steel city we're obsessed
Shadows haunt the cyber lanes
Future's lost in digital chains

We're the lost ones in the night
Fight the darkness find the light
World is screwed but we are free
Dark shadows we will be

Virtual streets no escape
Holograms our only shape
City screams from silent throats
Shadows fade in fractal moats

See the sun it's artificial
Chasing dreams so superficial
Metal hearts start to beat
Broken rhythm no defeat

We're the lost ones in the night
Fight the darkness find the light
World is screwed but we are free
Dark shadows we will be

Dark shadows we will be
Dark shadows we will be

We're the lost ones in the night
Fight the darkness find the light
World is screwed but we are free
Dark shadows we will be

Dark shadows we will be
Dark shadows we will be

Virtual streets no escape
Holograms our only shape
City screams from silent throats
Shadows fade in fractal moats

See the sun it's artificial
Chasing dreams so superficial
Metal hearts start to beat
Broken rhythm no defeat

We're the lost ones in the night

Dark shadows we will be
Dark shadows we will be

We're the lost ones in the night
Fight the darkness find the light
World is screwed but we are free
Dark shadows we will be

Dark shadows we will be

Step into the nostalgic glow of ❄︎"Digital Snow,"❄︎ where the warmth of an '80s monitor contrasts with the chill of winter outside. This dreamy pop tune blurs the line between reality and pixels, capturing the beauty of a quiet, digital escape.⛇
👉Take a look at the sheet lying on the couch to the right in the waveform artwork for an intriguing sneak peek at the song we’ll be releasing in a week in collaboration with The Corking Crack Band😊 (the first of two for this Christmas!).🫵

Lyrics:

Alone in my room, the outside's a blur
An eighties glow from my monitor
Old films play on VHS tape
But the snow outside slowly takes shape

But I don't care, it's all the same
In my world, there's a different game

Digital snow falling from the screen
Asterisks shining in a pixelated dream
Outside's cold, but I'm warm below
Lost in the beauty of this digital snow

You may howl, the streets are bare
But here I sit without a care
Thought the disc's hung, loading slow
As winter's tale outside starts to grow

These falling stars, they speak to me
My screensaver's all I need to see

Digital snow falling from the screen 
Asterisks shining in a pixelated dream
Outside's cold, but I'm warm below
Lost in the beauty of this digital snow

Alone but happy in my silent space
The digital flicks keep up their pace
They understand the way I feel 
In this empty world, they're all that's real

Digital snow falling from the screen
Asterisks shining in a pixelated dream
Outside's cold, but I'm warm below
Lost in the beauty of this digital snow

Digital snow falling from the screen
Asterisks shining in a pixelated dream
Outside's cold, but I'm warm below
Lost in the beauty of this digital snow

Let it BE Xmas

Lyrics:

In the forge of flames
We rise
Titans clash
No compromise
Through the storm and blistering skies
We reign supreme
Hear our cries

Warriors dance
Arms arise
At war within eternal night
Mountains tremble
Earth’s delight
We carve our names in blood and might

In the battle
We stand tall
Facing darkness
We won't fall
With hearts of steel
We conquer all
Titans rise
We heed the call

Cries of the ancients' call
In their honor
We stand tall
Warriors united
Never stall
Through the ages
We brawl

Armored fury
Souls aligned
Wield the power
Unleash the mind
Through the chaos
We are defined
By the strength in our combined

Glory forged in fire’s breath
Victory beyond our death
Together we endure the test
Leave our mark
We are blessed

In the battle
We stand tall
Facing darkness
We won't fall
With hearts of steel
We conquer all
Titans rise
We heed the call

In the battle
We stand tall
Facing darkness
We won't fall
We make our stand
We won't fall
We won't fall
We heed the call

We heed the call

Cries of the ancients' call
In their honor
We stand tall
With hearts of steel
We conquer all
Titans rise
We heed the call

We heed the call

Since our first Jazz song is delayed due to a slight cold of the sax player, we took the opportunity to finish a track we recorded a few months ago but never completed (…which, of course, doesn’t require a sax🤪)!
So here we are with a rather "intense" piece, deeply emotional, tackling the burning issue of so-called 'femicides' (violence against women).😔
"Cold Hearts" is an emotional journey through loss, resilience, and the pursuit of justice. With haunting melodies and evocative lyrics, it tells a story of remembrance and love that will not fade. Let it take you through the shadows in search of light!

Lyrics:

Blood on the canvas
A story untold
Whispers in the darkness
Secrets unfold
Their spirits wander
Lost in the night
Searching for justice
Yearning for light

In the shadows they lurk
Afraid and alone
Silent screams echo
Carved into stone
Their lives unjustly taken
Hearts full of pain
We won't rest 'til their voices are heard again

Cold hearts
Cold hearts
You took them away
But their memory lingers
Forever it'll stay
We won't forget
We won't let you hide
Justice will prevail
Love will abide

We won't forget
We won't let you hide
Justice will prevail
Love will abide

Cold hearts
Cold hearts
You took them away
But their memory lingers
Forever it'll stay
We won't forget
We won't let you hide
Justice will prevail
Love will abide

Cold hearts
Cold hearts
You took them away
But their memory lingers
Forever it'll stay
We won't forget
We won't let you hide
Justice will prevail
Love will abide

🙌🏻Here we are with another unusual experiment, though given how often we switch genres, it’s hard to define what’s truly "unusual" in our alien and wacky perspective! 🤪
This time, we’re diving into Jazz! To all the purists out there - don’t take it personally! We know this track is, in some ways, light-years away from traditional Jazz, but that’s exactly why we call it unconventional!
So sit back, relax, and enjoy this musical absurdity - call it Jazz if you like, or whatever you want!  
Happy listening!😉

Lyrics:

We've got honeyed notes and smoky bars
Tickling ivories and old guitars
A saxophone that wails with glee
The classic jazz in melody

Here comes the girl with a velvet voice
Singing heartache as her soulful choice
There's always rain on the windowpane
And metaphors about the pain

It's a jazz song, can't you hear
Every cliché crystal clear
From the moonlit nights to the lover's kiss
All wrapped up in this old-time bliss

Walking bass lines, tapping feet
City nights with scattered beat
There's a moaning trumpet in the air
Lost romance, a weary affair

Oh the clichés come alive
Scatting lines with no surprise
The same old rhymes and same old tune
Dancing under that blue moon.

Finger snaps, the smoky speakeasy feel
A midnight stroll, a lingering appeal
Love's always lost, but not so deep
It's all just jazz, we play to keep

It's a jazz song, can't you hear
Every cliché crystal clear
From the moonlit nights to the lover's kiss
All wrapped up in this old-time bliss

It's a jazz song, can't you hear
Every cliché crystal clear
From the moonlit nights to the lover's kiss
All wrapped up in this old-time bliss

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

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

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. 🧐

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

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

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 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)

Today marks 80 years since 🇯🇵Hiroshima🇯🇵, a day that reminds us of the horror and loss caused by the atomic bomb. We want to honor the lives affected and the resilience of those who survived. This is a moment to reflect, remember, and hope that nothing like this ever happens again.
We’re releasing a new version of Atomic Love (here you can find the original version released a year ago: https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/atomic-love), featuring our awesome friend Carl aka The Beautiful Dark @thebeautifuldark, as a tribute to this day. 
Our wish is simple but strong: may humanity never face such devastation again!✌️🕊️😌

Lyrics:

(We are thinking of you)

All our lives are fading
In the cold dark night
All our hopes are breaking
Man, we lost the fight

In a world of shadows
Fear takes the lead
Love can't find its way
In the nuclear breed

Boom goes the night
In this atomic love
Silent hearts ignite
Under the skies above

Running through the wasteland
No place to hide
Holding on to memories
As dreams subside

In the ruins we stand
Hand in hand we pray
Hoping for tomorrow
Come what may

Boom goes the night
In this atomic love
Silent hearts ignite
Under the skies above

Running through the wasteland
No place to hide
Holding on to memories
As dreams collide

In the ruins we stand
Hand in hand we pray
Hoping for tomorrow
Come what may

Boom goes the night
In this atomic love
Silent hearts ignite
Under the skies above

Boom goes the night
In this atomic love
Silent hearts ignite
Under the skies above

Boom goes the night
Come what may

Atomic Love - 80 Years Later

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

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

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

Official Music Video

🎸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.

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