LOOOOOOOOOOOL you nailed it, you look just like me!!! 😂😂 Thanks again, Carl!!! You're awesome!!! Even with one hand, haha! Davide confirms. 😂🫶 Luckily my head wound isn’t that visible...it's covered by my hair... But yep, you got the right side, LOL 😅 And my hand’s not totally mummified 😂 just a small bandage! Thank goodness it wasn’t my left hand… that would’ve been a mess! This way I can still play with no problem..just a tiny bit of pain from a small bruise!🤦🏻‍♀️

🤩 this my fave of you ever!!!!!! one handed bass YES !! and the softy voice <3

This one makes fun… Cool, nice rhythm, Carl. Congrats for one handed playing the bass!😁 But the title “May apples read you” irritates me!😮‍💨🤔

i tried eating my dinner with one hand, one fork, it's do-able..really enjoying the poetry tonight, as i'm distracting myself from dentist app 2moro....damn...i just failed the distraction

Beating Edge

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!

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!😉

Spooktober (Instrumental)

A song about the long downside of a good time.

Lyrics:
I walked down to the Pinegrove bar
I walked down to the Pinegrove bar
I hear the sound of laughter
And the threat of a good time
I walked past it
Then, I decided to go in
You always make me bend to your will
That finite skill
I've been away from you too long (2X)
I could drink every drop of you (2X)

I know you're sitting here
You're watching my wheels fall off
Looking like a Hanna-Barbera cartoon
Right here, in this very saloon!
Watching the wheels fall off
I don't know how to stop
I could drink every drop of you

Sometimes, I fall down
I fall down on the ground 
But, I'm enjoying the view
I'm a fuck up Baby
Every, every drop of you
We're all just playing dress up at this bar
I am ready to revise my part
I'm drinking
Until I drop
Every drop of booze

Every Drop

1- Echoes Of Thought

LYRICS

Gray moon reflects the light in your eyes
House fires ablaze with you tonight
I see the winter coming fast from the right
closest relatives have died, what a sight
What a sight
I don't know where to turn now
I don't know what to believe
Is it all just make believe?
Fading fast
It's all just fading fast
I don't know where to turn now
I don't know what to believe
Is it all just make believe?

What is in your book that is true?
What is something that i can hold onto?
Hold onto

Where are you?
Where are you?
Where are you?

ONE WAR LEADS TO ANOTHER WAR
V1
The banksters play both sides
The banksters never lose
The whole world’s drowin’ in debt
Lost it all to the jews
If the jews are God’s chosen
You can count me out
But that’s just the lie they sell
To give themselves clout

CHORUS
We’ve been down this road before
One war leads to another war
We’ve been down this road before
Rich get richer, poor get poorer
We’ve been down this road before
Another war
Another war
One war leads to another war

V2
Now, they want World War Three
For greater power and control
Wars don’t happen by accident
Read it in their manifesto
The politicians are bought
The Constitution is dead
Israel’s B*tch is goin’ down
So much for the blood, the blood she shed

CHORUS
We’ve been down this road before
One war leads to another war
We’ve been down this road before
Rich get richer, poor get poorer
We’ve been down this road before
Another war
Another war
One war leads to another war

V3
Taking it to the streets
For what little good it’ll do
Believers in peace and love
Making terrorists of you
Should ‘a left ‘em in the ghettos
Should ‘a never let ‘em in
The King of kings would agree
Eye for an eye ain’t no sin

CHORUS/TAG
We’ve been down this road before
One war leads to another war
Another war
Another war
One war leads to another war, yeah

We’ve been down this road before
One war leads to another war
Another war
Another war
One war leads to another war……
…….we’ve been down this road before
One war leads to another, another war.

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!!😘

Loading Holidays (Instrumental - Chiptune)

voici "Comme une feuille", une musique que j'ai composée il y a 25 ans. Aujourd'hui j'ai réussi à trouver le temps pour refaire cet enregistrement afin d'avoir la version complète de cet ancien titre.
Vous reconnaîtrez "Interlude" qui se trouve vers la fin du morceau.
 
Bonne écoute, j'espère que vous apprécierez ce moment de détente :)

Peace and Love. Welcome to human made music... by lungs and hands. All words written with a pen and thought of by a brain. Thanks for all of your wonderful support. Much love, Carl

Love Earth to love yourself
