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 18th November 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/batch550

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.

Rust & Bones – Fetchflix TV Series – Miss Scarlett

soundcloud.com/user-461764443/sets/rust-bones-new-tv-series-1

The voluptuous, sexy and very beautiful Miss Scarlett Page-Turner, commonly called “Miss Scarlett”, is the daughter of Ronny Page, flutist of the not so famous rock group "Led Vanillin", and Hazel Turner, full time pimp in her neighborhood brothel called “The Nuts”. Since Miss Scarlett Page-Turner was working for her mother as a call girl, she was assigned classy customers such as Dick Boneman. It did not take long for Mr. Boneman to understand how the big selling potential of Miss Scarlett would help his business. Mr. Boneman offered her a job in the sales department of Boneman & Sacks Relic Asset Management Inc. and she became sales rep for the North American Catholic market where she was meeting Bishops and Cardinals to sell them holly relics. The secret of her success was obviously the spicy extras she was offering during the sales meeting. Eventually, sales started to go low when Bishops and Cardinals where too busy dealing with sexual abuses scandals from their priests and having to hide them. Miss Scarlett lost her job as a sales rep and started a new career as novel writer. Her first and only novel “The  Bishops Secret Jewels” was a total success. Indeed, this novel was a real page turner. It was based on the unorthodox meetings she had with Bishops and Cardinals, which later were disclosed by journalist on the news. Could being laid-off by Mr. Boneman be a good reason to kill him? Naaaaah, she became his full time sexy mistress and his partner in crime for much worst sins.

Musical Note:
The double bass line at the beginning is based on the bass line of the “Lady Marmalade” song written by Bob Crewe and Kenny Nolan in 1974. The “Lady Marmalade” song is well known for its suggestive lyrics that you probably know very well. I was also vaguely inspired by the song “Scarlet” recorded in 1974 by the English rock band the “Rolling Stones” featuring guitarist Jimmy Page of the “Led Zeppelin” rock band.

Rust & Bones

Rust & Bones – Fetchflix TV Series – Miss Scarlett

Off the album The Unicorn Queen. 
Get messy make them cry! Second single off of Mortimer's sophomore album due out later this year. 

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

Making It Harder

Brown Trout

'Until I Take My Final Breath' is a track taken from a forthcoming album project called 'Transformations' in which organic recordings of classical instruments are warped and bent using an array of effects, transforming them into otherworldly ambient soundscapes. 

This track features a recording of a woodwind quintet (piccolo, flute, bass flute, clarinet and recorder) which is massively slowed down and then fed through delays and reverbs. The result is a haunting piece where every nuance of the woodwind's vibrato and breath can be heard. 

Also presented in a remixed 'stuttering' version, where filters bring a rhythmic intensity and percussion adds to the chaotic metaphor for trying to snatch a breath of calm in a noisy world.

About the composer: 
Christof R Davis is a rising star of the contemporary classical, ambient and soundtrack genres. His work ranges from intimate solo piano compositions and layered neo-classical pieces through experimental ambient/electronica to cinematic soundtracks. His work has been broadcast on BBC Radio 3 and BBC 6 Music, and he is a regular fixture in BBC Sounds Music Mixes ('The Sleeping Forecast' and 'Ambient Focus' to name two).

Lyrics:
You been making, you been rolling
Stay outspoken
Drop the beat and hold the focus
When your searching for some meaning
But you can't seem to get out of your way

You got to love what you're doing
See it through and let it be a part of you
Find a new way to tell an old thing
To make 'em all sing
Find a new way

Tell me about your love 
Tell me about your schedule
Are you cooking up
Your big potential?
Know that your feeling rough
But please don't be argumental
I'm not giving up 
On someone special
Someone special

It's fair to need a moment
When your brain is overflowing
With all the fires you've been stoking
And all the power that your holding
Well can you sow it into fields of your unfolding

Because you love what you do so
See it through
Watch it blossom around you
They say that pressure makes a diamond
So your digging trying to find it 
The brilliance under you

Tell me about your love
Tell me about your schedule
Are you cooking up
Your big potential?
I know that your feeling rough
But please don't be argumental
I’m not giving up 
On someone special

Nothing too deep about it
Making some time and space 
Like wind through the trees
We can just be elemental                            
So tell me about your love 
Just one thing about your love

The more you see, the more you get
(The more you get)
The best of me, forget
(You get the best of me, best forget)
The past and keep no regrets
(The more that you see, the more that you get)
The more you see
The more you get, yeah

Tell me about your love 
Tell me about your schedule 
Are you cooking up
Your big potential?
I know that your feeling rough
But please don't be argumental
I’m not giving up 
On someone special

Life is the meaning of
All of this time and space
Like honey to bees
You are to me elemental
So tell me about your love 
Just one thing about your love
It’s something special

Oh, we're something special
Woah, we're something special
Baby, baby, baby, baby, we're something special
The more, we're something special
Ey, ey, the best of me it's something special
The more, the more, the more, the more
We're something special

Anxiety Attack

THE KIDS has been over 35 years in the making. A few iterations along the way and I think I may have got it right this time.. 

The track features Ava Wolsynuk on vocals. Ava also sang on the Feb 2024 Animal Souls EP 'Take Me Home'.

I'm not exactly sure what I was trying to say when I wrote the song, but I'm sure there is a mixed metaphor or two involved. Whatever it means, this song has always been very special to me.

​AVA WOLSYNUK (vocals)
PRESTON SAWYER (electric guitar)
JOHN FULTZ (organ & mellotron)
DAN CRIPPS (drums)
MICHAEL FISHER (bass & acoustic guitar)

The Kids

The Kids (feat. Ava Wolsynuk)

Pump! Pump! Pump! Push! Push! Push! Is fun Techno/dance/rock song about a daily gym routine that turns into a gym romance! It’s not uncommon for people to form romantic connections with others they meet at the gym, as shared interests and activities can often serve as a foundation for a relationship (in fact, we know two couples who did just that!).
We’ve combined a fast-paced dance song with the addition of a lead guitar to reflect the action packed, exercise routines and work outs that many people do at their local gym.


PUMP PUMP PUMP

Inspired by a serendipitous encounter along the River Thames in Woolwich, Southeast London, "By the River" captures the electric moment of two souls discovering their profound connection. The song explores the raw, passionate energy of newfound love against the backdrop of moonlit waters and rustling trees. Zinemah's lyrics paint an intimate portrait of vulnerability and desire, where the landscape becomes a metaphor for the unfolding romance. The rhythmic verses echo the gentle movement of the river, symbolizing the natural, inevitable progression of love - unstoppable and pure. A testament to those magical nights where everything feels possible, the track invites listeners into a world where passion burns bright and two hearts find their perfect synchronicity.

'Sitaray' is a follow up to my first hesitantly released dreamy poppy single called 'Baadal'

Lyrics
Chor do meray dil kay haal ko
Koi aur baat kero
Chor do meri behki baaton ko
Chalo chaltay hain wahan 
Jahan

Sitaray aasman say khoay hain nahin
Sitaray aasman say khoay hain nahin

Kya keroon kya phir poochoon woh sawaal
Jis ka na hai koi jawab
Intezaar hai aik aisi raat ka
Andheray main ho aik subah
Jahan

Sitaray aasman say khoay hain nahin
Sitaray aasman say khoay hain nahin
Nazaray kehkishaan kay khoay hain nahin
Sitaray aasman say khoyay hain nahin
