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

"Retro Xmas" is a holiday hit that blends nostalgia, humor, and festive rock vibes. A collaboration with The Corking Crack Band, this track captures Christmas magic with candy canes, Santa's calls, and a cheeky nod to holiday traditions. Perfect for rocking around the Christmas tree!🎄
And now, let's pass the word to The Corking Crack Band...
🎙️"Having been working in the Toy Llama industry as I have these past 84 years, it came as no surprise when Beating Edge approached me asking for me to contribute to their collection of human toenails. I gratefully accepted as you might imagine - such opportunities present themself only once a fortnight at best - however what came next was a surprise; I sneezed . Yes kindly viewer, I had caught a cold - which at my age was impressive because I usually can't run them down these days. It was then that Beating Edge asked me to play the character of 'Antony-Woke-DJ-Bigot-Smith" on their upcoming number. I approached it with trepidation from a westerly direction and pounced upon it with such a total element of surprise that even I was surprised... which of course just made it even more surprising still. Victory was mine and history was made. Thank you Beating Edge. Would you like any more toenails? If not, I do a line in stained underwear?"
🎤Let’s take the virtual microphone back for a moment to thank TCCB for the toenails and the underwear (again, thank you, thank you!). We’re also announcing a new collaboration with them in a couple of weeks! Next week, a somewhat... dangerous Santa will be arriving🔫. Stay tuned!😊
👉Note: This is the explicit🤬 version, which will be released on major streaming platforms on December 12th. The clean version has been available since December 5th (here's the link: https://ffm.to/retroxmas-clean).

Lyrics:

TCCB: And of course they spent the whole of Christmas with two nuns and a rocket

BE:
Just take a look around,
Can't you hear that sound,
It's Santa calling out your name,
Join the laughter, play the game!

Jingle bells, the snowflakes fall,
Santa's here to greet us all,
Magic's in the air tonight,
Christmas cheer, oh what a sight!

Candy canes and mistletoe,
Hanging by the fire’s glow,
Reindeer flying through the sky,
Look, there’s Rudolph passing by!

Jingle bells, the snowflakes fall,
Santa's here to greet us all,
Magic's in the air tonight,
Christmas cheer, oh what a sight!

Dear Santa, won't you hear my plea,  
Bring me a Commodore under the tree,  
Or maybe an arcade down the hall,  
I'll be the champion, standing tall!

Jingle bells, the snowflakes fall,
Santa's here to greet us all,
Magic's in the air tonight,
Christmas cheer, oh what a sight!

Merry Christmas!

TCCB: Okay, that was Beating Edge with Retro Christmas and you’re listening to TTFN Radio, bringing you music I philosophically despise all round the clock! Huh, you know I remember my childhood woke-free Christmases being much better than this. I mean who can forget such Christmas classics as Rudolph’s Red End, Mistletoe Maneuvers In The Dark and the ultimate classic Santa and The Advent Adventure of Mrs Claus’ Under-drawers! Fun for all the family! Kids love bit a sex at Christmas and if they do then they need taking out and beating to the edge of life like back in my day! It didn’t do any harm. Well apart from the crippling fear I have of human intimacy. These new bands just don’t make them like that! I mean ‘Beating Edge’, it sounds like an act carried out by a sexual deviant. Even I could write a better Christmas song. We’ll go on then! Whoa who in Santas jingly baubles are you and where in the name of creamy liqueurs did you come from! Ooo get you! Well, my mother and father wouldn’t tell me where I came from so I can’t help you with that! But I can tell you I’m the Christmas fairy atop your mother-fucking tree pal! Alright, steady on! Oh I’m sorry about that! Well yeah I’m only trying to ask what’s going on! Look, here I’m splitting you in five!

PROGRAM NOTES
In some ways, String Quartet No. 2 is similar to my String Quartet No. 1: the five movements are stylistically diverse, I use a few snippets of pre-existing music, and the music, while idiomatic, is technically demanding. As with my first quartet, this work explores technical and aesthetic ideas I didn’t have a chance to explore in other works.

The first movement, Colored Fields, is inspired by abstract expressionist painters such as Mark Rothko, Kenneth Noland, and Barnett Newman, but also pointillist painters such as Georges Seurat and Paul Signac. There are textures that emerge and submerge using articulations that gradually shift from soft to loud, or short to long, and there are a few transitions that utilize a technique I call pitch phasing or phase modulation, as opposed to tempo phasing. In these transitions, two or more instruments gradually modulate (raise or lower) notes, motives, or phrases by gradual, very refined, microtonal, non-chromatic increments, settling on new pitch areas that directly reflect the previous areas, just modulated up or town. The movement ends softly with a virtual desaturation of the rhythmic material. I remove notes, one by one, until there’s nothing left.

The second movement, Rigor Mortis, is inspired by a comic strip by David Lynch that newspapers ran for many years. In this strip, Lynch sketched a stressed-out, pitch-black dog, looking very mean and almost buzzing with anger; it looked like it was about to explode. Every strip began with an accompanying paragraph that read, “The dog who is so angry he cannot move. He cannot eat. He cannot sleep. He can just barely growl. Bound so tightly with tension and anger, he approaches the state of rigor mortis.” This made me envision musicians playing with such ferocity and tension that the music seems to eventually cancel itself out, anger imploding in on itself.

The third movement, Dolente, is sad, lush, and mournful. The only request I had when writing this quartet was to incorporate a Norwegian fiddle tune or theme by Edvard Grieg, so I chose themes from Grieg’s String Quartet No. 1. The form of this movement mimics the form of a song by Edvard Grieg’s entitled Spillemaend (Minstrels, or Fiddlers). The poem that Grieg set in 1876 as the first of Six Ibsen Songs (Op. 25) is based on the Norwegian folktale of the fossegrim, a male water spirit who could teach the art of violin-playing, but often at the price of personal happiness. In some versions of the story, the poor violinist drowns in the end. Like the song, and echoing the second movement, this movement beginning with the protagonist’s longing, his desire for the beloved. Next, he encounters the fossegrim, who promises that becoming a master of music will allow the protagonist to become master of his beloved. In the final stanza, the protagonist becomes a master fiddler, but he is now a cursed, wandering musician deprived of earthly love, so he drowns himself.

The humorous fourth movement, Scherzando, capitalizes on effects that at times, often make the string players sound inebriated. I make use of copious glissandi and tempos that fluctuate between 3/4 and 6/8, giving a sense of unease.

The final movement, Collage, is similar to the first movement in that it is inspired by the visual arts, and specifically, collage painting and works by surrealists. Many themes from the first four movements are brought together in this odd-metered movement.

String Quartet No. 2 commissioned by J. K. Billman and is written for and dedicated to the Euclid Quartet.

LYRICS:

I'm looking all around me and what do I see?
A world I don't belong too, that's no part of me.
So cold, I don't wanna stay here any more.
It brings me down, I can't take much more.

Do you understand me, what I'm trying to say?
I need you In my arms, won't you just stay?
Do you understand me, what I'm trying to say?
I need you In my arms, won't you just stay?

There are so many things I could do but I won't anyway.
I need you In my arms, won't you just stay?

How did we end up here I don't know?
This town Is just like a morgue, there's no hope.
My words are no use here, they're weaker each day.
Do you understand me, what I'm trying to say?

I need you In my arms, won't you just stay?

Don't you understand me, what I'm trying to say?
I need you In my arms, won't you just stay?
Don't you understand me, what I'm trying to say?
I need you In my arms, won't you just stay?
