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 2nd December 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/batch552

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.

The wacky adventures of Inspector Looso - Main Theme- New Fetchflix TV Show

https://soundcloud.com/user-461764443/sets/the-wacky-adventures-of

Luc Clouseau is the proud son of the French inspector Jacques Clouseau and his ex-wife Simone Clouseau. Having the same talent as his father for investigation, he is to police investigation what P.D.Q. Bach is to music, a total disaster. Stay tuned on Fetchflix TV during the next months and enjoy this new series called “The wacky adventures of Inspector Looso”.

“This story is a work of fiction. Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events, is purely coincidental. Ho and for those who did not get it, Fetchflix TV is also fictitious.”

Musical note: You may recall the theme I used in the Rust & Bones Inspector Looso track. However, this time I tried to use the humor and derision of John Williams and added the sarcastic tone of the American composer and musical satirist Peter Schickele who created the fictional composer P.D.Q. Bach as well as the Gerhard Hoffnung humoristic music.

Song Notes: Teardrop - Craig Fortnam feat. Chantelle Pike 
(originally by Massive Attack, 1998)
“Massive Attack were huge in my life, and were so inspiring for perfumery,” says Mark. “I’ve often used these rumbling dark tones of fragrance with flashes of orange, and that’s precisely where Massive Attack are for me.” Composer Craig Fortnam, best known for his work with North Sea Radio Orchestra, weaves dextrous guitar picking around the pure vocal tones of himself and Chantelle Pike – and with just a hint of orange in the mix.

On The Quiet

If you know you know (Right?)

silence

Nah.

You don’t know a thing.

Not about having kids…

Not about buying a house…

Or mowing the lawn…

Welcome to your 30s, folks.

“The real world.”

It hits hard, like a slap in the face.

And this single (kind of) celebrates that.

But you know what? I wouldn’t change a thing.

So, if you know, you know. I certainly do.

Right?

IYKYK (Right?)

the big deep

"A New Beginning" is an experimental voyage that invites listeners into a world where electronic sounds and neo-jazz elements collide in a symphonic journey of transformation. This track isn’t just a soundscape; it’s a deep dive into emotion and reflection. The pulsating beats and rich, atmospheric layers provoke a wide spectrum of feelings, guiding you through a personal odyssey of introspection.

As you listen, the shifting melodies and experimental rhythms evoke images of possibilities and fresh starts. What are you imagining? What does your "new beginning" look like as these sounds swirl around you? The Fantom Man masterfully blends #electronic and #neojazz influences, offering a sonic palette that invites you to explore your own evolving story. Whether you find solace or excitement, this track is a space for new possibilities to unfold, resonating with anyone at the precipice of something new."
