“Men cannot be men — much less good or heroic men — unless their actions have meaningful consequences to people they truly care about. Strength requires an opposing force, courage requires risk, mastery requires hard work, honor requires accountability to other men. Without these things, we are little more than boys playing at being men, and there is no weekend retreat or mantra or half-assed rite of passage that can change that."

~Jack Donovan

Truth crushed to earth will rise again.
How long? Not long, because no lie can live forever.
How long? Not long, because you shall reap what you sow.
How long? Not long, because the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.
His Truth is marching on.

Our God is Marching On! Speech by Martin Luther King Jr.

Yes, I remember
A dream that I chased ever after
Once upon a time there was laughter
A heart set aflame, now in ember
What is left is the smell of smoke
And the stench of sweat of a body that broke
Hah, you don’t want to hear that
You don’t want to hear about the glass that cracked
A tower shining towards the sky
Moonlit amber was the prize
Foundation built by a
Child with a blueprint
Wishing for a guardian
To guide, protect his movement
But as time passed, it crumbled
He asked, “How could you”!

Heartbeat Riot apresenta novo single “Now!”; confira

#InspiringVibes

The Kairos, the Now,
Lifts us, no more proud
Old habits, we drop em, the ba-bomb keeps on ticking (ticking)
Soldier on, broken hearts (arts) keep on ticking
My body slippin', I'm equipping...a Thousand Rhythms
Unleash the beats and crush them beasts
Our souls they feast, (no retreat!) gotta fight back 'til their defeat (Yah!)
Pouring putrid font (they vomit), lies they spreading, solace rotted
"Godless" they laud it, yet we flip it back
We got it, headstrong - a new flame eruption
Brainstorm, flame storm ranks, and all of their corruption
Complete overrun, new mission now- it's never done
New grounds, ash in soil, to reap and sow
New Life Symphonies, the toil the Key to grow

Riot For Love.

#Intense

The beat of rocks tumble against flesh
Bitterness, the venom cannot quench
A thirst for justice, eager are crowds
Vengeance now heard, our egos too proud
Chaos sown, spoken we're torn
Divide of ideals, our fear blares a horn
But hope, a force victoriously firm
Awaiting in the depths, the echos return
Like light in the dawn, an angel will sing
A lullaby of Love, deep down it will bring
Calm in the storm, new life like the Spring

Riot For Love.

The whispers cry louder behind the veil of your hatred
You inch closer and closer, we both shiver. It's fated
You're cruel and disturbed if you chose to will ill
Symbols...colors we shout til nil. Kill
What do you represent? The answer sounds hollow
The silence you yell, the verbs I can't follow
I hear it. The language. The unheard recall
False identities forever they fall
The flames that never grow tall, appalled
...Resound... oh faint crackles of God...!

Riot For Love.

The injustice committed was not the evil I see in front of me... the injustice committed was my own for not doing anything about it.

"Why Me" is that moment when the fire was ignited, I stopped questioning myself and took the courage to fight back...out of selfless love.

Heartbeat Riot presents "Control" from their self-titled album...

Losing everything so dear to him and realizing his worst forbidden fear, Tony Stark's thoughts wander into a distant past dream...everything committed to protect the world has been lost. 

A unity of broken men and women is now destroyed...what makes this man cling to hope can drive others to madness.

Holding onto faith in the abyss of boundless space, this is a diary of Tony Stark.

Do you have a heart like his?

Heartbeat Riot presents "Make A Move" from their self-titled EP album.

This AMV is inspired by the tenacious and protective spirit of Izuku Midoriya who completely devotes himself to helping others even at the cost of his own life and personal comfort. Through preparation and training, he takes up courage and transcends his limits for the sake of those who are dear to him. Even in weakness, even in pain, even in deathly fear...

For who or for what would you die for?

Showcasing the eclectic beats behind our debut self-titled EP album, the intricate and dense production is front and centered.  We embrace the post genre approach to musical creativity, daring to be bold in mixing various influences ranging from Hip Hop to Video Game Orchestral.  The instrumentals can feature distorted rhythm guitars strumming over gritty hip hop style drum tracks, to melodic chiptune synth singing along a reverby guitar solo as if in a dream world.  Each track is unique, each with a specific vibe than the other...but all cohesively represent the beautiful uprising of human emotion in life done in epic style...that is Heartbeat Riot.

To our loyal fans...six years ago we released our first EP album with your support and encouragement. Thank you for your love.  Between then and now we put out a music video, interview, and several fun cover/remixes. We had high hopes for a LP album... but several circumstances took its course and it could not be finished.

Six years later, I'm excited to announce (finally lol!)...that on October 13, 2018, you will hear an instrumental release of our EP album remastered!

It doesn't end here though! New and unreleased Heartbeat Riot instrumental albums are next!

No excuses for delays.  Our re-mastered EP instrumental album is coming soon!

In the meantime, here is a free stream/download of an unreleased track now on Soundcloud...
