479 Shortlist

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.

I wrote this song as I watched my old home movies from a family vacation to Jackson Hole. I returned years later with a long lost love, only to find that we had to part ways forever. I hope this song can light up your late night drives, your lows, and your highs. Love, Goldmyth 

Lost in a video
Read it sideways
Warm and familiar
In it's old ways

Soft at the edges
Like a fabric
Two-lane to Jackson
They were laughing

Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away (Ooh)
Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away  (Ooh)
Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away (Ooh)
Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away

But now you've got to go
Baby don't turn back
The trees at the window
When the road gets black
The face in the mirror
On a single track
You know you've got to go
Baby don't turn back
And now you've got to go
Baby don't turn back
The trees at the window
When the road gets black
The face in the mirror
On a single track
You know you've got to go
Baby don't turn back

You stood at the doorway
Decades after
Packed up the boxes of my
Failed endeavor
And we drove out of Jackson
Spent the summer
Waiting and wondering if we
Could be lovers

Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away (Ooh)
Thousand miles away
thousand miles away (Ooh)
Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away (Ooh)
Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away

And now you've got to go
Baby don't turn back
The trees at the window
When the road gets black
The face in the mirror
On a single track
You know you've got to go
Baby don't turn back
And now you've got to go
Baby don't turn back
The trees at the window
When the road gets black
The face in the mirror
On a single track
You know you've got to go
Baby don't turn back

Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away
Thousand miles away

Baby don't
Turn back
Baby don't
Turn back

Now you've got to go
Baby don't turn back
The trees at the window
When the road gets black
The face in the mirror
On a single track
You know you've got to go
Baby don't turn back
And now you've got to go
Baby don't turn back
The trees at the window
When the road gets black
The face in the mirror
On a single track
You know you've got to go
Baby don't turn back

11 Pete Beat - Love Is A Madness

Written by Isaac Stuart & Dan McDougall.
Produced by Dan McDougall. 

LYRICS:
Blue light, shadow
White sheets, no clothes
Feeling every beat
Morning, you go
So high, solo
Staring at the ceiling

Struggling
The walls are caving in
And I’m alone again
Finding it so hard to breath in these

Cold corridors
Where I was yours
On the 13th Floor
On the 13th Floor

One night, two hearts
I fell so hard
On the 13th Floor
My 13th Floor Lover

Rain drops, perfume 
remnants of you 
echo in my mind
Left hand, tattoo
Left me too soon 
failure by design 

Struggling
The walls are caving in
And I’m alone again
Finding it so hard to breath in these
 
every time i close my eyes
i see your face in my hotel room 
when i wake up i realise
i’m back in 

Cold corridors
Where I was yours
On the 13th Floor
On the 13th Floor

One night, two hearts
I fell so hard
On the 13th Floor
My 13th Floor Lover

13th Floor - Isaac Stuart

'Sooner Or Later' will be released on 3/3/23.

Sooner Or Later

Golden Thread ft Cian Finn

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!

- “Stories” is the third single from “The Embers EP” due for release on March 31st 2023

- Stories starts with a music box introduction to the lullaby 'Hush Little Baby' but dark undertones of midnight horrors.  It conjures up images of creatures and critters born out of fear...

"Stories my father told, of monsters that prey on my head
They'll hurt you and haunt you, and fill your dreams with the dread 
Well kid, you gotta be brave, their feeding off all this pain
Stories my father told, of monsters that prey on my head
What if the monster was actually in the bed"

Stories was recorded at Base Studios, Stourbridge by Simon Henley with Production by Matt Jefferies of Eternal Productions

The Embers EP

Stories

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?

That's All (Duo Version)

Is that the sound of your heart strings strumming for me?
Or have they quieted down to set you free?
Oh for now we’ll hold on. Let your heart inside you run away.
Long after your eyes turn laughter to tears. What matters most after all these years.
Oh for now we’ll hold on. Cause you’re the spark inside. We’ll run away.
With the wolves. With the wolves.
Lights flicker. Your quick triggered smile grows bigger after driving for miles.
And all I wanted was for you to know. I’ll be beside you no matter where you go.
Oh for now we’ll hold on. Cause you’re the spark inside. We’ll run away.
With the wolves. With the wolves.
(Whoa)
Allow us to be our own leap in the unknown.
I know it’s hard but sometimes these things figure themselves out to be,
So clear to see. I hope you’ll trust me. Cause’ you’re still my key. 
Oh now, we’ll hold on. We’ll hold on. We’ll hold on.
(Ooh’s)

Скільки тобі зараз років? Це іноді дивно усвідомлювати. Іноді навіть страшно. Чим їх можна виміряти? Мабуть відповідь для кожного буде своя, бо ми всі прагнемо різного в житті. Але, єдине, що можна сказати напевно, що не хотілося б розмінюватися на дрібниці. Якщо давно хотів щось сказати, щось зробити, про щось мріяв – роби негайно. Бо скільки того життя?

ПРИХОДЬ НА КОНЦЕРТ В АТЛАСІ  23.11.2018 
КВИТКИ: https://kiev.karabas.com/en/latexfauna

Тречина про ксомонавта, якого в епоху космічної експансії не устраює просто взять і поселитися на очередній екзопланєткі. Він жадає нових відкриттів і ощущеній. Спочатку була мисль назвати трек "Masturnaut", але передумали. 
Кста, у нас скоро концерт в Атласі: https://kiev.karabas.com/en/latexfauna 

Між кораблями стиковочки 
Нові космонавти, нові космонавтоки
Нас сюди вела наукова практика
Welcome в нову галактику
На трьох гейзерних планетах
Зводять котеджі з пахучої сосни
Всі, окрім мене, покинули ракету
А мене цікавить тільки Космос і еротичні сни

Моя путь лежить крізь сузір'я лебедя
Безмовна і чиста, вроді би Будда я 
І я досліджую всі недосліджені кратери
Мій перший телескоп – молоко матері
На трьох гейзерних планетах
Мене чекають молоді ліси
Далі до лона летить моя ракета
Бо мене цікавить тільки Космос і еротичні сни
