Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 12 March: from 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/batch276

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it is likely 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. You may resubmit the track in future.

Watching Over Nothing

Copyright © Thorup/Haapanen 2011. Mastered by James Towler.

Lyrics: 

Written by Signe Gry Thorup
 
Lift up the curtains
bring on the lights
the time is now
if we can play it right
It's an illusion
to do otherwise
and there's no need 4 playing safe 2 night
no indecision please
no inhabitions
its not a game so put ur heart at ease

From here I see 
so easily
And I believe in a strange new world
From here I see 
so easily
And I believe in you and me


We change the scene
blow away the clouds
no in between
just upside down tonight
it's time to shout out
a different act 
be ready for the stormy seas ahead 
don't be scared
send your dreams to me
we'll ride together
without guarantees

From here I see
So easily
and I believe in a strange new world
From here I see
So easily
and I believe in a strange new world

Ah ah ah ah 

How I missed u
how it feels to
be without the one I know is there
How I missed u
how it feels to
be without the one I know is there

From here I see
So easily
and I believe in a strange new world
From here I see
So easily
and I believe in a strange new world

From here I have seen
through the clouds of my own dreams
so this is how it begins

In a strange new world
in a strange new world 
In a strange new world
in a strange new world 
In a strange new world
in a strange new world

Strange New World

Kind of Blue

Scottish Fiction Records are proud to present 'made out of maps'; the lead single from Glasgow indie four piece wojtek the bear's forthcoming album 'a talent for being unreasonable'.

Following on from the success of their maiden EP, wojtek the bear tucked themselves away to work with in-demand producer Chris McCrory (Catholic Action) to record 'a talent for being unreasonable' at Shady Lane Studios in late 2017.

'made out of maps' is the first glimpse at an album full of slacker-pop and American Football tinged indie sounds. The track floats in with a bright, cheery disposition building into a full blown catchy pop song. This plays against the lyrical nature of the track which sees lead singer Tam Killean musing about the repetition and isolation of being in a dysfunctional relationship where you’re both saying to each other “this’ll get better” when you both know it won’t .

'made out of maps' is released digitally on 16th March 2018 via Scottish Fiction Records.

Your Country's Not At War

Being is eternal: for the laws there are to conserve the treasures of life on which the Universe draws for beauty. Gobekli Tepe presents the debut of Lee Bryan DJ in his `Catch The Light' Ep including 2 Original mixes. 

Truly, as light manifest itself and darkness, thus truth is the standard of itself and of error. Catch The Light, has one of those grooves that puts you into the deep, inner, sunlight mood. Its beautiful accent of sound is amazing and astound. The kick is moving vibration of stellar beat in amazing 4x4 beat persuasion. 
Lee Bryan Dj is one of those producer that has a blessing in disguise of music mastery, we will never hide. This is one enchanting original, and we are happy to have this amazing artist in the realm of heaven and now worldwide digital.

When a system that is not alive is isolated or placed in a uniform environment, all motion usually comes to a standstill very soon as a result of various kinds of friction; differences in electric or chemical potential are equalizer, substances which tend to form a chemical compound do so, temperature becomes uniformed by heat conduction. My Broken Heart, starts off with a tonal effect of vocal connect, the bass is so surreal and enchanting, you see the climax of climbing within the heights of heaven, in a higher mountain. The great synergy in melodic synth, brings a serenity as the vocals are truth for the making. This is a great deep house original for the taking.
