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 28th October 2024: 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/batch547

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.

Christmas songs and the like are also not eligible for the Listening Post, although we will collect these into a playlist that will be published on 24 December.

ENTIRE INBOX: BATCH 547

Sometimes I fall asleep I still think that I'm awake
And sometimes on my feet I don't know if it is a dream
It's always like I'm kind of messed up and right now
I've got some doubt I'm even speaking out loud

The times I fall asleep I dread all that I might see
Most times it scares the fucking shit out of me
So much now that I'll go off and hide
I guess I ain't no kind of bravery type no

Try not to sleep at all but avoid being awake
Obviously it's kinda like in a daze
Sometimes I feel it might be slipping away
And if it's farewell then well have a well day

They Still Call Me Tony

Sometimes I Sleep

Come take a ride on this captivating adventure. Available to buy/stream on all platforms. Spotify, etc.

LYRICS
Pretty Baby the war bells have chimed
No need for halos get messy make them cry
Merrymaking a caustic change of heart
Move the needle turn it counter clockwise

Pretty baby don’t fret the sun will rise
Pretty baby you’re running out of time
Pretty baby don’t fret the sun will rise
Pretty baby you’re running out of time

Smash those demons that fill your vacant pause
Take what’s yours break their witty jaws
Play with havoc and take your final bow
You’ll see reflections of your own applause

Pretty baby don’t fret the sun will rise
Pretty baby you’re running out of time
Pretty baby don’t fret the sun will rise
Pretty baby you’re running out of time

The silence of the night
Crawling slowly and out of sight
Hapless touch of fire in your eyes
A crown of thorns dimming your light

Redeemer of sins that stands on the edge
A promise that aches of pretend
A dreamer rudely awakened
 Desire that drives you to the end

Locked in stone a heart full of lies
Take the bones and fall through the whys
Just a tremor of all you despise
Anoint the pain enjoy your sacrifice

Redeemer of sins that stands on the edge
A promise that aches of pretend
A dreamer rudely awakened
A desire that drives you to the end

Pretty baby don’t fret the sun will rise
Pretty baby you’re running out of time
Pretty baby don’t fret the sun will rise
Pretty baby you’re running out of time

Pretty Baby, oh pretty baby

Panic in Paradise

It's been a busy year, gigs have started and Disco in Sochi are back for one last blast with their soft, raunchy power pop ballad "OMG!".

A blend of big beat drums grooving to a low end synth. Think a poppy LCD Soundsystem with a fat groove and sweet melodies.

"OMG!" is out 15/11/24.

OMG!

The third single from the 3rd album by a Lesser Version.

yet humans are all the same
