🤘🏽🔥 mad tune love🤘🏽🤘🏽🔥🔥

Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning (or when we receive 200 submissions, whichever is sooner) - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 20th April: from around midday on Friday you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch362

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves or on the BBC Music Introducing Mixtape during the last three months — we ask that artists featured on either wait three months before resubmitting to give others a chance. We also don’t accept short previews or SoundCloud Go tracks that can only be heard as 30 second previews, and tracks made private after submission, which will be invisible to everyone. You will be able to resubmit the track in future. Tracks that have been previously submitted and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

lyrics:
i know that i'm the one to make you feel complete
amongst some other things you fully comfort me
sometimes, i fantasise how you feel bout me
when i come alive
cause i failed to figure out 
that kind of love to fall for 
i somehow fell for a coldhearted kind of love
it was the kind to mess me up but i’ll be singing
sun's out but it's still so cold clear skies but it's been so long
since i remembered how to love myself again
so i called my friend to tell her now "it's been so long"
and i worry how we'll drift off away
my love, you're so hard to love
in years to come you'll learn to trust
so woe is me, i hope you're coming back to me in time
and i'll start feel alright
all you know, you're the one to make me feel complete
amongst some other things you finally found my feelings
buried deep inside a cage, you finally found the key
now i'm so alive
so when you're coming back, oh, i'll be all alone
waiting for you to show me how to feel at home
and i’ll leave my pride out by the door so you can see my heart, 
my all and my flaws, but i’ll be singing
sun's out but it's still so cold clear skies but it's been so long
since i remembered how to love myself again
so i called my friend to tell her now "it's been so long"
and i worry how we'll drift off away
my love, you're so hard to love
in years to come you'll learn to trust
so woe is me, i hope you're coming back to me in time
and i'll start feel alright

Never Be The Same

From Anglo-Irish married songwriting duo The Portraits (“Irresistible and Irrepressible!” Tom Robinson, BBC 6 Music) comes an uplifting and timely new single, featuring an astonishing cast of musicians and friends singing and playing their hearts out from Coronavirus confinement in their bedrooms, living rooms and gardens with a simple and beautiful musical message of reassurance: ‘Don’t Worry’.

The powerful orchestral and choral ensemble joined forces through the power of the internet: a full score and guide track was transmitted to all the players via Dropbox, and thirty individual performances in twenty-five different self-isolated locations including bedrooms, living rooms and gardens from the South West of England to North America via France, were returned digitally within three days. It was then left to The Portraits’ arranger and producer Jeremy Millington to unite all the recordings in his home studio to form the final epic work.

The Portraits’ songwriters Lorraine and Jeremy Millington say “the song is only as good as it is because everyone threw themselves at it so wholeheartedly. Not one performance is lacking in spirit, style or belief: maybe that shows just how keen we all are to send the world a giant and heartfelt hug right now. We dedicate it to all who are toiling tirelessly each and every day to fight this terrible disease around the world, and to all those loved ones it has taken from us.”

The song will be released on May 1st 2020 on iTunes, Spotify and all popular digital platforms. The Portraits are married Somerset-based songwriters Lorraine and Jeremy Millington who have performed at six Glastonbury Festivals and been championed on BBC Radio 2. They were due to perform at Glastonbury Festival again in 2020, now postponed to 2021.

Gye W'ani REMIX - ft Bully

Luxembourg based alt-electro-pop artist Tobisonics delivers a politically-charged dose of driving electronics, fierce percussive grooves, and striking sound design with new release, “Military Industrial Complex”.

In this, the follow-up to his debut single, “All These Things”, the reclusive producer sets President Eisenhower’s 1961 Farewell Address to the American people against President Trump’s Rose Garden speech in reaction to the Black Lives Matters protests (June 1st, 2020).

Eisenhower, five-star general & Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force in World War II, who planned & supervised the invasion of Normandy in 1944-45, and went on to become Supreme Commander of NATO (1950 - 1952); who, while recognizing the need for the Military Industrial Complex, warns of the need for perpetual vigilance to safeguard the liberties of the American people in, what is, a nuanced and prophetic speech.

And Trump, the real estate mogul/reality TV star who avoided the vietnam draft thanks to an apparent bone spur in his foot; who talks of dominating the streets, as he announces plans to deploy thousands of heavily armed military personnel into the cities and towns of America.

Tobisonics skillfully constructs a dynamic electronic production around the two highly contrasting speeches; the groove and pulse of the track present throughout, as he blends elements of sound design & vocal FX with filtered piano & shifting ambient.  The 2 min 47 sec track punctuated by its driving chorus of synthwave and fierce percussion; a robovox mantra of the world’s 5 biggest arms manufacturers delivered in rhythmic roll call.

“I’d finished the production back in July and was looking for the right Artist to add vocals, but then I remembered Eisenhower’s Farewell Address.  The contrast between the dignified, nuanced, and hopeful tone of Eisenhower’s speech and the macho, antagonistic and fatalistic language of Trump’s speech was so striking, I know I had to put them together.”

“Military Industrial Complex” is to be released exclusively via Bandcamp on “Bandcamp Friday”, October 2nd, before being available across all streaming platforms on the following Friday, October 9th.
