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 27 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/batch479

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.

Wasted Love

Yellow Lines *

This track is a light tribute to my grandma's home parish in Barbados, St. James. Also for anyone who'd rather a quiet beach moment over being boxed in a carriage at rush hour. 

Love x

lyrics

Last night, we finally found some respite.
Bathed in ocean tides, washing clean our minds.
Let's take our souls down to the riverside.
Floating, head to the sky.
Digging deep for sunshine buried in your eyes.

I just don't fuck with the pace, it's sapping my energy.
Confined inside these lines paved out of concrete.
Crowded streets and tube trains twisting my chemistry.
Send me out to St. James and head to the beach.

I keep on losing count of all my blessings.
I try to release the tension, before I'm inside a coffin.

x2
I just don't fuck with pace, it's sapping my energy.
Confined inside these lines paved out of concrete.
Crowded streets and tube trains twisting my chemistry.
Send me out to St. James and head to the beach.

x2
I fly around, I hunker down head first.
I wanna work / take a vacay when I want.
I'm gonna burst spending another day cooped up;
Chasing a glow, sea shores and a rum punch.

Sooner Or Later

Pull Up Yourself a Chair

You make my head spin around
Head spun giddy going round and round and round
Squealing excitedly
Tongue tied and spinning like windswept leaves from the trees

Welcome to the Feather House
Pull up yourself a chair

Something familiar is happening (pull up yourself a chair)
There’s a lightning charge in the air
Orbiting the shine from your stars (pull up yourself a chair)
And the light that you’re leaving there

The planets are realigning
Like minded dreams to share
Welcome to the Feather House
Pull up yourself a chair (pull up yourself a chair)

Something familiar is happening
There’s a lightning charge in the air
Orbiting the shine from your stars
And the light that you’re leaving there

The planets are realigning (pull up yourself a chair)
Like minded dreams to share
Welcome to the Feather House (pull up yourself a chair)
Pull up yourself a chair (pull up yourself a chair)

Orbiting the shine from your stars (pull up yourself a chair)
And the light that you’re leaving there

Night Noise Team is Sean Ormsby and Fabien Pinardon. Originally from Belfast and Paris but now living in Edinburgh and London. NNT has a sly way with a lyric, a melody, an arrangement. They draw from a well of chansons, funk, rock, pop and soundtrack music. 

New single Little Shocks is direct, European, dancefloor pop with a lyric seesawing between Edinburgh and Barcelona and beats vacillating from brittle to euphoric.

Little Shocks

Misunderstood jumps and jitters into a full-on punk assault right from the off. Speeding through your brain like an out of control, amphetamine powered steam train, the track manages to spit out venomous tounge in cheek lyrics that call out a hypercritical society, where people take the moral high ground without thinking of the consequences of their own actions. So jump in, hold on tight and enjoy the ride!

Forest Fire

The Lost Hours - Forest Fire (Radio Version)

The old question: what is reality and what is dream. Or are we perhaps living in a computer simulation? You won't find answers in this song either! Only more questions...

What If (A Dream Of Reality)

A conversation between two lovers.

——

LYRICS
Cold as ice, caught in the passing of time
I didn’t understand the things that you do
So I settle you down,
“Take in the moment, it’s not gonna come back around”
But you frowned and said:
“For some things in life, you gotta keep those feet on the ground”

I take comfort in you, but That’s All
I don’t feel like you do and That’s All
and sooner or later you won’t want me hanging around

Don’t just stare at the ground
For some things in life are waiting just to be found
And no doubt, I need you tonight
To keep me from just dropping out

I take comfort in you and That’s All
I don’t feel like you do and That’s All
and sooner or later you might just need me around

Is it true…what you say?
Is it true…you’re drifting away?
All that you say…is it even remotely the truth?

Have I lost you?
