NEW INSTRUMENTAL SHOEGAZE/ POST-ROCK

Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Wednesday evening (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 16th June 2025: from Friday afternoon 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/batch574

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 cannot be included in playlists. You will be able to resubmit the track in future. Tracks (and remixes of tracks) that have been previously submitted, and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

We Are This Place

With Bear - We Are This Place

MR.BLUE instrumental

"A New Consciousness" is a song about the transformative power of shifting our perspective. It’s about realising that the way we view the world—and ourselves—has the ability to shape our experiences and the direction of our lives. This track is a journey into understanding that true change begins with a shift in mindset, and that by embracing a new way of thinking, we can unlock a deeper connection to the world around us and our own potential.

The song features spoken words from the legendary Carl Sagan, whose teachings about the "cosmic perspective" encourage us to look beyond the limitations of our everyday thoughts and see ourselves as part of something much greater. His words remind us that when we step back and broaden our view, we can see the interconnectedness of all things, and with that awareness comes the possibility for profound personal transformation. Sagan’s message is clear: a shift in consciousness is the key to unlocking a greater sense of purpose, understanding, and connection.

Musically, "A New Consciousness" reflects this internal shift. It starts with a sense of tension and dissonance, mirroring the struggle that often comes with personal growth and change. But as the song progresses, the music becomes more expansive, more uplifting, symbolising the release of old patterns and the opening up of new possibilities. This shift mirrors the process of overcoming adversity, such as illness, and coming out the other side with a renewed sense of clarity and strength.

For those facing physical or emotional struggles, such as illness, the song serves as a reminder that while the challenges may be real and the journey difficult, there is always room for transformation. By changing our perspective, we can find the strength to overcome, to heal, and to move forward. The "new consciousness" we embrace is not just about seeing the world differently—it’s about seeing ourselves differently, as capable of more than we thought possible. 

"A New Consciousness" is about the power of that realisation. It’s a reminder that we are not just victims of circumstance, but active participants in shaping our own reality. By embracing a broader perspective, we can begin to transform even the most difficult experiences—whether it's illness, loss, or personal doubt—into a source of strength and growth. The song encourages us to see the potential for change, not just in the world, but within ourselves.

Toffee

Hail the Mountains

[Verse 1]
Woke up with rain on the windowpane,
Heavy heart but I’m still in the game.
Mug in hand, mind in a spin,
But I take a breath and let the light in.

They say, “Chin up,” and I hear their voice,
In the noise, I make a quiet choice.
To keep calm, keep carryin’ on,
Even when the night’s feelin’ way too long.

⸻

[Chorus]
Keep calm and carry on,
Every cloud’s got a light that’s strong,
Chin up, love — you’re not alone,
Bob’s your uncle, you’ve found your home.

The sun will rise, just wait and see,
Good things come, eventually,
You’re smashing it, don’t live in doubt,
It’ll be all right — it all works out.

⸻

[Verse 2]
They laughed when I said I’d chase that dream,
Called me soft, said life ain’t what it seems.
But I’ve learned not to fold too soon,
Some flowers only bloom past June.

“You’re havin’ a laugh,” well maybe I am,
But I’d rather dance than stick to the plan.
“Don’t worry,” I say, “it’ll sort itself out,”
Got fire in my heart and a louder shout.

⸻

[Chorus – repeat]

⸻

[Bridge – Rap/Spoken Word style if pop-hip-hop version]
Yeah —
Took my knocks, wore the bruises like medals,
Turned breakdowns into new instrumentals.
No map, just the grit in my soul,
Each setback? Just part of the goal.

I’m not lost — I’m just finding the view,
Truth is, I’m stronger than I ever knew.
Say it loud — “It’ll be all right” —
’Cause I’ve got hope and I’ve got fight.

⸻

[Final Chorus – stripped down first half, then full beat returns]
Keep calm and carry on,
Every cloud’s got a light that’s strong,
Chin up, love — you’re not alone,
Bob’s your uncle, you’ve found your home.

(Full band)
The sun will rise, just wait and see,
Good things come, eventually,
You’re smashing it, don’t live in doubt,
It’ll be all right — it all works out.

It’ll Be All Right

a01. Intro

Clouds Indoor is a fresh name in the Belgian music scene, formed by musicians with roots in the indie rock, punk, and metal scenes. With their unique blend of cutting guitars and immersive melodies, Clouds Indoor tells meaningful stories without words. Their instrumental compositions range from enchanting, dreamy passages to imposing walls of sound, with contrast and dynamics at the heart of their sound. 

The band draws inspiration from genre greats like Explosions in the Sky, Russian Circles, and Mogwai, while subtle echoes of DIIV and Radiohead shine through in their music. This results in a distinctive style that pushes and transcends the boundaries of genres. Live, this translates into intense and captivating performances that fully immerse the audience in their world. 

In 2023, Clouds Indoor debuted with their self-released album "A Journey", a record that immediately put them on the radar. The album led to a packed concert schedule with performances in clubs and at festivals. Their momentum received a solid boost in 2024 by winning several awards, including the Ballastival Battle (with Mario Goossens as jury president), the Bunkpoprally, and the Heidefeesten Open Stage. 

With a growing reputation as a promising name in the Belgian music landscape, Clouds Indoor returned to the studio in 2024. Their second album, set to be released in the fall of 2025 via Barley Records, marks a new chapter in their musical journey.
