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 May 19th 2025: 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/batch570

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.

The second release from my forthcoming EP Welcome To Loveland.

Summer was ending and the nights were getting shorter whilst writing this. The juxtaposed nature of Desolation compared to the rest of my forthcoming EP - Welcome To Loveland, intrigued me. The EP is laced with upbeat, get your feet moving, songs. Desolation adds a hint of despair to ground it in reality. The concept of a theme parks protruding happiness - whats behind the facade?

The show must go on!

Desolation

All My Friends Are Depressed

This is one is a little busy on previous uploads so have paired it back to keys, vox and percussion to Mr Miyagi it again

Lyrics
Hmm, you offer new certainty
An intertwined fate laminated by will
A little unfree to this physical fiend
But I guess where there's silence....
It's soul rules for feed

So, we all have a hammer,
Just like Thor
Where Will is that thunderous power
Perpetual proof to all souls who then hear
Not the blinkered approach...
Not uncontrolled,
Not thrown through 'verse to 'verse in fear

So what if this will allows us to pick
One universe from all & here are fate will stick
In the macrocosm it all just is
Microcosmic control fate as varnish for his...

Ok, I gave you a pillar of salt,
A pinch and for now just your truth
I'll look to Ikigai for more reasonable youth
If then a hammer appears in my hand
I'll strike down all sith for all on this land 👿🔨

BackStage

“Brave Face” delves into the emotional tightrope of projecting strength while grappling with personal struggles. Through heartfelt lyrics like “I’m half my scars and half my pain” and “I tell the world I’m good and act like everything’s okay,” Alex candidly reflects on the masks we wear to navigate life’s challenges.

KEEF are a psychedelic indie rock band formed in a small industrial town, northwest, England.  Their music and lyrics are very much influenced by their working class upbringing. The feeling of alienation, isolation and discontent are echoed within the music and lyrics.  KEEF’s influences range from 60’s psychedelia to indie punk.
