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 25th 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/batch551

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 – Dick Boneman

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

Inspector Looso searched the entire manor to find the body of Dick Boneman and found him in a little study hidden behind the library and lighted by a candlestick. No blood, no knife and no rope. Dick Boneman was absolutely alive and perfectly healthy. However, he was laughing his guts. He spent the night preparing his fool trap. He had absolutely no intention to disclose any fraud report to the media that would put the value of Boneman & Sacks Relic Asset Management Inc. down the drain. Instead, he called every broker of the guests to setup a bad joke to his guests and the brokers made them believe during a phone call that their share had no value anymore, which was not exactly true. In fact, Dick Boneman used some of the asset of Boneman & Sacks Relic Asset Management Inc. to buy three Social Media companies, “Switter”, “Analphabet” and “Minigram” for 69 billion dollars with the intention to layoff every employee and replace them with Artificial Intelligence. He then named the new social media company Y. Y would be the greatest misleading social media in the world providing chaos and dumbness to every country on earth. This way Dick Boneman would be the new god of social media and lies. Consequently, Y would be able to help Ronald Dumm to become the leader of his country using stupid catchwords such as "Make Anemics Greed Again". Soon after, on a press release, Dick Boneman declared to all the shareholders of Boneman & Sacks Relic Asset Management Inc. “Rust & Bones is history”, our new moto will be “Mud and Shit is our Bread and Butter”. Dick Boneman is surely as slippery as a fish isn’t he?

Musical Note:

I started this track with a gentle blend of Ravel and Satie to express the underwhelming finding of Inspector Looso.

But then, when Dick Boneman started his evil plan to be the social media world leader I felt extreme and my score writing became as bombastic as Hans Zimmer. Was it a good choice? I don’t know. What do you think?

Be my first, worst, gut-wrenched love
Hell or heaven sent crush
Turn my walls to dust
And break my heart for fun

Sucker punch, one swing and I’m hitting the floor 
At breakneck speed, reluctantly
Spinning out, last round
Till I’m tapping the ground beneath my knees 

But when it’s you
Black melts to blue
You’re tongue tied too
I’ll let you choose 

Be my first, worst, gut-wrenched love
Hell or heaven sent crush
Turn my walls to dust
Break my heart for fun
Jaw drop, fist clenched love
The clouds part with your touch
And when you rain, we’ll flood
Break my heart for fun

Dumbstruck, one touch
And I’m checking the locks upon my doors, compulsively 
Punch drunk, bad luck 
If gravity works harder for you than me

But when it's you, light floods the room
If you're scared too, what's left to lose?

Be my first, worst, gut-wrenched love
Hell or heaven sent crush
Turn my walls to dust
And break my heart for fun
Jaw drop, fist-clenched love
The clouds part with your touch
And when you rain, we’ll flood
Break my heart for fun

Never call me up
Tell me it’s not love
Make me lose my trust 
Break my heart for fun

Be my first, worst, gut wrenched love
Hell or heaven sent crush
Turn my walls to dust
Break my heart for fun
Jaw drop, fist-clenched love
The clouds part with your touch
And when you rain, we’ll flood
Break my heart for fun

Break My Heart (For Fun)

RAPTURE! WAR! ODES TO ENDS!

Apocalyptic soundscapes trapsing their ways through parts of world and life ending catastrophic events. Ennui and despair. Desperation and anger. Acceptance and denial. Part A of a two part cycle made to envelop and re-order.

To Those Left Behind...

Second EP from Brodie Brown recorded at the end of 2023 with top producer Lee Christian, of SmileX fame. Songwriting exploring the highs and low of teenage life, drug addiction, broken bands and relationships.

Burning up

Single (oct. 2024) of Belgian hardrock'n'roll band The Sonic Redemption.

I Got A Fever (and I think I like it)

Saint is the first single from AFTER LONDON's debut album. It represents a new direction for the band, who have developed a heavier, darker sound that draws influence from grunge, rock and nu-metal.
