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.

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

Synth King (2025) Remastered

"Doing Good" by Melinda Klotz Mercer is a feel-good acoustic pop song inspired by Galatians, Chapters 6 through 9. With a heartfelt message about kindness and light, it reminds us that the more love you give, the more it grows a breezy, uplifting track perfect for mornings and peaceful drives.

Doing Good

A version in which the great human being and extraordinary musician Mike Fox participates as a collaborating artist giving new life to this simple and humble song 


D'mendo Boteli 

Como dos niños - D'mendo Boteli Feat. Mike Fox.wav

Meant to capture the sense of adventure and endless possibilities of nostalgic times. Also first time I've used a Yamaha MODX6+ synth, but love it so far.

Glow of the Last Lantern

Coming home, but it’s not
The same home walked away from
Cross the threshold, air smell funny
Furniture turned around

Change the way we see the world
Sideways line, up and down
Sunrise in the
Wrong part of the sky

Morning happening all day long
Afternoon blues til evening come

Words spoken in familiar tongue, but
Jumbled order
Having trouble understanding 
Ain’t the way supposed to go

Can’t fix the leaky roof
Puddled on the floor
Rotten core


Morning All Day

I hope this song reaches your heart. 
Thank you so much for listening.

This is an original track.
I recorded the piano myself. Some elements like certain string parts, ambient sounds, and subtle adjustments were programmed using MIDI — although some of the string sounds were also played and recorded using an electric piano.
This track features vocals by Koharu Rikka (小春六花) using Synthesizer V.


The lyrics are as follows:
静かな月夜に包まれていた
眠れない夜を許した心

夜明けが来れば全てが消える　
最後に残した言葉は『ありがとう』

それが君の最後の言葉なら
僕はずっとこのまま忘れない
まだ心は温もりを感じていた
夢を続かせて　もう少しそばに

時が進む速さを知った
気がつけば朝を迎えて歩き出す

見つめ合った瞳は優しくて
もっと先の未来を信じてた
僕だけは何も見えずただ未来を思った
『愛してる』それさえも言えず

それが僕の最後の言葉なら
君はきっと優しく笑っただろう
そしてきっと僕らの心には
そんな恋の最後を告げてくれただろう



（English Translation ）
Wrapped in the quiet moonlit night,
My heart forgave the sleepless hours.

When dawn arrives, all will fade away—
The final words I left were “thank you.”

If those were your last words to me,
I’ll never forget them, not ever.
My heart still felt your gentle warmth,
Hoping the dream could last—just a little longer.

I learned how fast time can move;
Before I knew it, morning came, and I began to walk again.

Your eyes, when they met mine, were so kind—
We believed in a future far ahead.
Only I stood there, unable to see,
Thinking of the future, unable to say “I love you.”

If those were my final words to you,
You would have smiled so softly.
And perhaps, within our hearts,
That was how our love quietly came to an end.

⚠️ Warning 1:
May cause the listener to feel like they’ve just stepped into a James Bond film. Side effects include imagining yourself in a tailored suit, gripping the wheel of an Aston Martin, and believing this song is your personal theme as it builds with every turn. Proceed with caution.

⚠️ Warning 2:
May cause the listener to start browsing listings for Pagani's, Ferraris, GTRs, or vintage Porsches “just for night drives.” Side effects include spontaneous highway runs with no destination, cinematic stares at dashboard reflections, and a deep conviction that the city soundtrack was made for you.

⚠️ Warning 3:
May cause the listener to feel like the singer is actually talking to them, please, she ain’t talking to you, bro 😆. Side effects include overanalyzing every lyric, texting your ex “this reminded me of you,” and staring out the window like you’re in a music video. Relax, it’s just a song… or is it?
