Here’s what I’m looking for; Italian Mafia-style music (like “The Godfather” theme), but with a beat to it. I already searched Youtube under several different searches and didn’t come up with much. Can anybody help me out?

I’m not really certain what you are going for, but I think that tango fits. Try something off of Astor Piazzolla’s _Zero Hour_, _Cyclical Night_, or _Camorra_ albums.

Searching on Youtube for “godfather remix” gives a lot of results. This is the first one, and it’s not bad. It doesn’t overdo it: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ka3AU7bJDsA](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ka3AU7bJDsA)

Edit: Hm, I thought you might have been looking to use a piece of music for a specific occasion. I guess if you’re looking for an actual type of music then my link isn’t going to be very helpful.
