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

THE DEAD WALK

A cosmic journey across space and time. Complete with atmospheric synths and duelling guitars. This slice of synthwave / chillwave is a collaboration with my friend the excellent Out Runner.

Across Time

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]

Working on three songs simultaneously can sometimes result in something you just can’t put lyrics to. What do you do? Throw it away? Of course not, you leave it as an instrumental and make some ears bleed!

Here's a track dedicated to our Scottish friend and supporter with the rare name of Adam Smith (..well, it's definitely rare in Italy!😂) and to all Scots, of course! We don't know if we managed to capture the spirit of your land, but we gave it a try! The 'narrating' (..or cheering?) voice belongs to the aforementioned friend with the most unique name, impossible to find in Scotland!

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

"Zombie Chef Supreme" is a unique blend of reggae and horror comedy. Follow the journey of a zombie chef with dreams of opening his own restaurant, serving “delicacies” like pineapple pizza and a new twist on spaghetti! Ghosts, vampires, and witches might laugh at him, but he’s undeterred, cooking up big dreams with a touch of spooky humor. Who says the undead can’t have a blast?
And with this track, our Halloween 2024 songs now total four: an instrumental (Spooktober - https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/spooktober-instrumental), a metal track (Night Of The Pumpkin Strangers - https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/night-of-the-pumpkin-strangers), a Pop track (Haunted Cycle - https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/haunted-cycle), and now here we are with Reggae!

Lyrics:

In the graveyard dark and eerie
Lives a zombie mad and cheery
Brains he craves but dreams he carries
Pizza
Spaghetti with pineapple berries

Zombie's got a crush on human cuisine
Pineapple pizza
Spaghetti supreme
He fights through cobwebs and spooky cries
Builds his shop under Halloween skies

Vampires laugh
Ghosts do mock
But he never stops
Never walks
Skeletons rattle
Witches cackle
Zombie chef
Ready to tackle

Zombie's got a crush on human cuisine
Pineapple pizza
Spaghetti supreme
He fights through cobwebs and spooky cries
Builds his shop under Halloween skies

Ovens blaze
Cauldrons bubble
Finding ingredients
Such a struggle
With a laugh
He slays his doubts
Pizza kingdom
Hear him shout

Opening night
The moon is full
Haunted doors
They push and pull
Monsters dine
Humans too
Under the stars
A dream come true

Zombie's got a crush on human cuisine
Pineapple pizza
Spaghetti supreme
He fights through cobwebs and spooky cries
Builds his shop under Halloween skies

Zombie Chef Supreme

Music was written long long ago. As it sometimes happens I draw a blank lyrically. At the time In was a member of a website called acidplanet. there were many fine artists, one of which was Panu Moon,  link     https://www.reverbnation.com/panumoon/songs     a very fine songwriter. I discovered that his lyrics fit music I had.. and so I recorded it. He approved saying " That's a good cover " ... so thats how im treating it, as a cover of his song of the same title only with my music AND... my first official collaboration on Soundcloud with the very talented " Single use and recycled "
here is his link   https://soundcloud.com/user-995867230    I have been a follower of his for quite some time and found him to be not only talented, but a classic " Press record and play " artist..  Totally my kind of thing.. Im very grateful he accepted my offer to play on this very fun song and am looking forward to more songs in the future if the stars align.

I hope you can enjoy !!

lyrics
Bubba smith's got a brand new car
brand new house and home
hes got a 7 day job pot belly
and a Smirnoff jones

Hes forgotton about the wife and the kids
and all that living one step up from then skids
thats the way its gonna be I guess
well have to settle for less

Now he’s good for 80 bucks a week
drives a twenty year old car
he cares about a lot of things 
but you cant change the way things are

just give me an old brown chair in the living room
im gonna do my bit for the baby boom
thats the way its gonna be I guess 
well have to settle for less

gonna settle for less
maybe it’ll take a little longer
but in the long run ill be stronger
thats the way its gonna be I guess
well have to settle for less

Now i aint got time for chasing someone else dream
all that glitters aint gold man 
and when you get there it aint what it seems

and it aint no easier to find true love
or keep it either when the push comes to the shove
thats the way its gonna be I guess
well have to settle for less

Settle for Less ( Featuring Single use and recycling )

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

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!!😘

Loading Holidays (Instrumental - Chiptune)

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

🔊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)

⚠️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

  Lyrics:

I have to ask myself
Is it all your fault, is it just you?
If I need someone to blame
It's easier to turn away
Feel big for one more day

But I am here to learn
And see myself for how I am to you

Are you the only one who did wrong?
If I need someone to blame
I don't see myself, only you
But I can make mistakes
It's easier to turn away
Feel big for one more day

But I am here to learn
And see myself for how I am to you

Am I the only one who can see..?
We are both to blame
You also make mistakes, like me
If we need someone to blame
It's easier to turn away
Feel big for one more day

But I am here to learn
And see myself for how I am to you..

I am here to learn..

I am here to learn...

-Thank you so much for listening! 🫶

I Am Here To Learn

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

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

Releasing this today for the Feast of Saint Nicholas—history’s most unlikely Christmas icon.
The spark came when Joe in Arizona was chatting with Mary from Beating Edge, who mentioned that St. Nick’s bones rest in her hometown of Bari, Italy. 
Joe wrote the song, and the band jumped in to bring it to life with their awesome playing skills and Joe had a blast attempting to channel Tom as he sang the vocals.

Credits:
Main Vocals, music and lyrics:  Joe 
Guitar & Backing Vocals: Mary
Synths: Mauro
Bass & Synth Bass: Davide
Drums & Percussion: Valerio
Mixed & Produced by Tom

Hope you enjoy it.

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

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!🎅🏻🕹️🎄
👾All our Chiptune tracks are here: soundcloud.com/beatingedge/sets/8-bit-vibes

Old Saint Chip (Instrumental - Chiptune)

Teaser: https://youtu.be/QPFKANVV9Us
🎸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.
