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 1st February: 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/batch393

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 that have been previously submitted and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

Leave the old house

Am I sleeping /
Or Am I awake /
Am I sleeping /
Or Am I awake / 

wake up my friend /
can't you hear them /
whispering, whispering /
spells into your ear /
poisoning your mind /
intrude your dreams /

(spoken part)
you  think you clever  / well, you not / 
you  think  you got it / well, you don't /
you think  have me / well, you don't /
you think one day / well, no, no / 

wake up my friend /
the witches are gone /
the streets are empty /
the borders are open / 
you should take your love by the hand /
and leave the old house /

(spoken part)
you  think you clever  / well, you not / 
you  think  you got it / well, you don't /
you think  have me / well, you don't /
you think one day / well, no, no /

Lyrics:

kept it in for so long                     
I forgot how to breathe			
After all that went down
And how I wish I’d come clean

Lost in a little slice of hell
Stuck inside your spell
Going round and round and round
And I always miss the mark 
I’m lost without your spark
Going round and round and round

Now we’re swimming in circles with no place to go
Always clawing at the surface to the great unknown
Like we always try to do this silly dance to give ourselves a chance
To catch our breath,
I’m just trying not to drown 

Scared to speak the wrong word
I just wish you would say 
you remember how to love me,
that everything is ok

Lost in a little slice of hell
Stuck inside your spell
Going round and round and round
And I always miss the mark 
I’m lost without your spark
Going round and round and round

Now we’re swimming in circles with no place to go
Always clawing at the surface to the great unknown
Like we always try to do this silly dance to give ourselves a chance
To catch our breath,
I’m just trying not to drown

Circles - Live

Circles- Live w/ Shelby Yamin

‘Nukular’ tells the story of the world inside a nuclear explosion from the perspective of the man who pushed the button. Its dark and twisted lyrics speak of materialism, sensuality and death. The instrumentation surrounds you and creates an inescapable mushroom cloud of wailing synths, explosive drums, emotional vocals and dark cello.

Nukular

"Come meet me at the Crossroads..." The legend goes that Robert Johnson sold his soul to the Devil at a crossroads to play fantastic guitar.... Bessie Smith lost her life as a result of a crash at a crossroads - both were from Mississipi, home of the Delta Blues... this song pays tribute to them both :)

Crossroads

We do not know how tomorrow or even the next couple of minutes will turn out, yet we are happy at this special moment, bringing a quintessential cocktail of endorphins and adrenaline to the table.

Every Time

How Often?

I wrote this song when my grandfather passed away. It expresses many points of perspective such as how I felt, how my parents felt and how my nan felt when she lost her husband. Christmas is a special time to remember the loved ones we have lost. I hope this brings a tear to your eye or makes you smile, just thinking about your loved ones. I hope you enjoy!

I Hope He Knows

Lost Without Your Light' is a song written by our lead singer-songwriter Eileen. There is a very personal story behind this but generally it's about longing for peace for a troubled mind.
