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 22nd January 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/batchxxx

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.

ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 515

Peacock Followed the Hen is an old Northumbrian Smallpipes tune and song. It has lyrics too which are cryptic in parts but quite clearly talk about lust and sex. “Aal the neet ower and ower” (all night over and over) “the peacock follows the hen”. So it’s a very one-sided thing where one person is chasing or pressuring another person for sex. Normally this is interpreted as a man chasing a woman for sex.. I wasn’t a big fan of this message so I added another verse, quite cryptic again but basically saying: stop the one-sided pursuit. That’s not cool. Step back and listen to what the other person wants, have respect for their bodily autonomy and their wishes. If  it’s a two-way thing, if you listen to each other, then maybe both people can have more fun.

Rule The World

"Vanishing Point" is a tender felted piano piece with an enchanting, contemplative melody. The composition explores the theme of seeking tranquility - finding that serene moment when worries fade to nothingness.

CrusaderBeach is the pseudonym of composer Adrian Webster, a self-taught pianist from the North West of England whose neoclassical solo piano pieces blend captivating melodies with emotive moods. Discover more at: https://crusaderbeach.com/

To Every Purpose Under Heaven

The Past Is In The Way

We Can't Lose What We Never Had

Mastered at the infamous Abbey Road by Tom Hall (The Snuts, Elton John, The Beatles etc.) and recorded with Jamie McIntyre of The Covasettes. King of Broken Hearts is an anthem for anyone out there who may have ever mistreated anyone in a relationship and got things wrong. The heartbreakers of our society! Stacked with a driving rhythm section, a massive floor filler of a chorus and some luscious vocal harmony stacks.
