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 : 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/batch532

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.

Lyrics:

Why am I frozen
Waiting for the buds to bloom 
Ground is overflowing
I’m running out of room

My body’s aching
I don’t feel the heat 
Subconsciously screaming 
Light me up

I don’t wanna come down
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t
I don’t wanna come down
It took me forever to get this high 
High
High
I don’t, I don’t
I don’t wanna come down

I watch the air that I’m breathing 
Waiting for myself to thaw
Draw with my fingertips
I don’t need to be in love

My body’s aching
I can feel the heat 
Subconsciously screaming Light me up

I don’t wanna come down
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t
I don’t wanna come down
It took me forever to get this high 
High
High
I don’t, I don’t
      
I don’t wanna come down

When I’m up here I want to feel it No limit, no limit 
When I’m up here I want to feel it No limit, no limit 
When I’m up here I want to feel it No limit, no limit 
When I’m up here I just wanna feel

I don’t wanna come down
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t
I don’t wanna come down
It took me forever to get this high 
High
High
I don’t, I don’t
I don’t wanna come down

CHEATER feat. St3v3L33

I have stage 4 breast cancer and quite often people don't believe me when I tell them that I'm great. We have all have a personal scale of really bad to really great, and having cancer does not change that. Whilst living with cancer I often feel great, so when you ask me and I say that I am great - I actually mean it.


[VERSE 1]
Some days obstacles stand in my way
Casting their mist of pure grey
But I see the light of sun rays
I have to choose my attitude before I get up
Will I face the day ahead of me with cheer
The hope in my soul tells me that I have nothing to fear

[PRECHORUS]
I’m being honest when I say		
How I am feeling today

[CHORUS]
I’m great
I know life’s not perfect, ok
I can’t help feeling this way
Every day 
When I walk in a room with a smile on my face
My heart is singing
Coz I’m great

[VERSE 2]
The warmth of sun on my skin makes me sing
Knowing what this life will bring
Adventures and wonderful things
I get to travel round the world and see its beauty
With all my favourite people next to me
Not asking for much I’m content with how my life will be 

[PRECHORUS]
I’m being honest when I say		
How I am feeling today

[CHORUS]
I’m great
I know life’s not perfect, ok
But I can’t help feeling this way
Every day 
When I walk in a room with a smile on my face
My heart is singing
Coz I’m great
I’m great
I’m great
I’m great
I’m great

I'm Great

Heavenly

I wrote this song for my husband. I wished we met earlier, but our time together is so precious that it's making up for that lost time.

This is Gracie's first single off her upcoming EP 'Dimples'

This song was written in 2021 by GRACiE BEVERLEY. It was produced by Joe Sage and mastered by Stephen Kerrison.

Making Up For Lost Time

Latest summer vibe infused foot mover by Notts based producer Pulses- like a margarita filtered through a haze summer evening then poured straight into your ears.

Tatianna

This is my 1st Vocal Song release in over a year! I worked very hard on this track. It has a subject matter that is very important to me.
As usual, all Instruments, Vocals & Drum programming by me.

Lyrics:
Some look at the world though open eyes...
Some bury their heads in the sand.
There's so much to learn, So much to understand...
Still only one book in their hands.
Pre-Chorus: There was a time I thought reason & rhyme were the way of our world, But I don't feel that way anymore.
Chorus: We're all together, we've got nowhere to go.
Many more books to read, So much that we need to know.
Why are we fighting over mythical gods? All on the same road, Fighting against the odds. Have we learned nothing in thousands of years? open our eyes. All that's behind us, there to remind us. Lost in the Ocean of Tears.
By King's decree, we were no longer free to live life as we saw. Ancient fairytales turned into law. Children born of innocence, dying for an age old lie. History repeats itself, They just cover their eyes. 
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Out.

Myths (Ocean Of Tears)

A collaboration between Point Blank students Tasha & Harry (vocals) and London producer/DJ duo Atari & Precious, who met through London club night SNEAK at XOYO. Energetic dance pop with a definite alt-festival vibe. 130bpm.

Wish upon a Star

After the Atmosphere

Pink Cliffs is the alt rock/psych pop band of London-based Si Miller.

The atmosphere created by this  psychedelic crooner is inky-black and cinematic: spaghetti western bass plucks and guitar twangs hang from loping off-kilter drums. All drenched in swirling reverb.

Stuck in a dark corner of your mind. Trapped in a nightmare. The interminable sensation of… bureaucracy. A song about helplessness in a diabolical scenario: Homework… Forever.
