Name: Attitude Problems by FLVZ in ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 470
Duration: 3 min 24 s
Description: High energy, fiery electronica and rap fusion, with a hint of hiphop and house.

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 5 December 2022: 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/batch470

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.

Many Elephants - Thunder (PR3DXTORS Remix)

‘Fight Fire With Fire?’ is the new single by Tribes of Europe & Barbara Stretch, out 4th November 2022 via Integrity Records on all digital platforms and limited edition, hand numbered 7” lathe-cut black vinyl.

With the classic vocal of Barbara Stretch, former frontwoman of Pye Records’ soul sensations The Vernons, to the fore, the Ely Fallen Angels Choir led by CREEPY NEIGHBOUR’s Max Taylor add layers of joyous harmonies to this building 60’s style space pop stomper with a strong political undertone.

Tribes of Europe, the alter ego of Fenland-based multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Martin Elsey, are joined on ‘Fight Fire With Fire?’ by Andy Gangadeen (Massive Attack, Chase & Status) on drums, Phil Cambridge (Kensington Symphony Orchestra) on trombone & trumpet, and Chris Taylor (Poison Girls, The Bays) on bass and co-production duties amongst the resident chickens at the wonderful Bluebarn Studios in the Cambridge countryside.

Martin describes the thinking behind the new single: 

“The motivation for the song was the creeping fear watching democracy across the world get more and more squeezed and ‘played’ as we get further into the 21st Century. Populists, oligarchs, autocrats … all seem to feel like their moment has arrived. Sooner or later each individual has to decide how they’re going to respond to that.”

Previous singles by Tribes of Europe & Barbara Stretch have enjoyed national support on BBC 6 Music, BBC Radio Wales, BBC Ulster, BBC Radio 3's Late Junction and various regional shows.

 “An instantly catchy and uplifting retro-futuristic creation” - Get In Her Ears
“Unashamedly ‘60s but with a new twist” - Steve Lamacq, BBC 6 Music
“The whole goddamn super-group bring their A game on this one” – LWM

Fight Fire With Fire?

After spending the summer bathing in the warm analogue waters of 70's fuzz rock, Villanelle & The Northern Wonder return with brand new single 'December Bloom'. A head turner, a sound to reanimate Bolan, a melody to make Fleetwood Mac swoon. This hook is sure to be so deeply embedded in your mind you'll forget your mums birthday.

'Red Banner, No Quarter' was a Best Outlaw Song Top 10 Finalist in the Fall 2022 World Songwriting Awards contest.

★ RED BANNER, NO QUARTER ★

EARLY ON A COLD MARCH MORNING
 A HANDFUL OF MEN THEY TOOK A STAND
 IN THE YEAR OF EIGHTEEN THIRTY SIX 
WHEN A SABRE DREW A LINE IN THE SAND

AND IT WAS SANTA ANNA WHO GAVE THE ORDER
 FLY THE RED BANNER SHOW NO QUARTER
 SANTA ANNA GAVE THE ORDER 
FLY THE RED BANNER SHOW NO QUARTER

EVEN AS THE DAY WAS DAWNING 
ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY NINE MEN STOOD THEIR GROUND
 THIRTEEN DAYS IN SAN ANTONIO 
SUCH A FEARFUL SIGHT A DREADFUL SOUND

WHEN SANTA ANNA GAVE THE ORDER
 FLY THE RED BANNER SHOW NO QUARTER
 SANTA ANNA HE GAVE THE ORDER
 FLY THE RED BANNER SHOW NO QUARTER

IT WAS VICTORY OR DEATH FOR THE VALIANT FEW 
OUTNUMBERED AND OUT-GUNNED 
AS SURRENDER AND BE SPARED AN ULTIMATUM THEY KNEW 
WITH A CANNON SHOT BY TRAVIS IT WAS SHUNNED

SANTA ANNA GAVE THE ORDER
 FLY THE RED BANNER SHOW NO QUARTER 
SANTA ANNA GAVE THE ORDER 
FLY THE RED BANNER SHOW NO QUARTER

A BLOODY BATTLE TO THE BITTER END 
WHILE THE MEXICAN BAND PLAYED EL DEGÜELLO 
NOW THE GUNS ARE SILENT AND THE SMOKE HAS CLEARED TO THIS DAY TEXIANS ALL SAY REMEMBER THE ALAMO

IT WAS SANTA ANNA WHO GAVE THE ORDER 
FLY THE RED BANNER SHOW NO QUARTER 
SANTA ANNA GAVE THE FINAL ORDER 
FLY THE RED BANNER SHOW NO QUARTER
