Pot's - World of Folk, Ballads and Soft Indie II

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 September 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/batch582

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 Music Video for Mr. J is out now: https://youtu.be/HWQ-U_8Aen8

In her new song Inyha takes us on a journey to the 7th heaven of love on the wings of Mr. J. But even if love can give us wings, it cannot free us from our own chains, it can only give us the will and energy to do so for ourselves. This is the image Inyha paints with her handmade sounds and arrangements in melancholic, nostalgic colors and a dreamy 90ies touch.

Mirror Shades

Morning light through the shades in my mirror
Tired eyes from a dream gone unclear
Whispered doubts in my ear by a liar
Feeding fears that fuel up a raging fire

Walking through these streets among strangers
Feeling the weight of the world's quiet dangers
Losing track of the dreams that once mattered
Staring down at the pieces that shattered

Every day is a mountain, gotta climb it
Hiding the tears with laughter won’t cut it
I wanna break free from the chains holding me
I wanna find the strength to let my heart lead

Social screens fill my mind up with static
Chasing likes just to feel adequate
The looking glass reflects someone I'm not
Trying to love the me I've somehow forgot

What if I'm just running in circles round
What if all my hopes get lost and found
Can I face the doubts and rise above
Hold on tight to dream of self-love

Every day is a mountain, gotta climb it
Hiding the tears with laughter won’t cut it
I wanna break free from the chains holding me
I wanna find the strength to let my heart lead

I’m done with this game I won’t keep playing
The fire is gone it’s not worth staying
Fighting battles I don’t believe in
What if peace is just not needing?

I’m done standing my ground through it all
But a little longer and I might (just) fall
The chains I once wore are giving in
Now the weight of this burden is lifting

I’m done with the noise, the need to please
I let go of those who brought me no peace
No more fake love I’m done with the act
I’ve found my truth and there’s no going back

Walls are coming down tonight
I let (it) go I'm done with the fight
I’m breaking free, I’m breaking free
This is who I'm meant to be

I'm Done

Let's give drum and bass one more chance to tell what it hasn't told yet

I Am Here

I Am Here (feat. Maxson)

Reeling - EP

Lucky Star

Cold Coffee

The new single taken from the forthcoming album "It's Gonna Get Heavy"

I’d say it’s nostalgic and wistful in both its music and lyrics but melodic and poignant. Harking back to 90s-early 2000’s indie/folk. There’s also a hint of the Britpop era with elements reminding me of OCS and Cast. A laid back journey borne from a world that’s gone by and a yearning for such innocence and hope.

A catchy wee Indie Pop number inspired by our Scottish weather!

(Go my way) etc.


Time, time, time
All I seem to do is wait
My, My, My
Lucky you look so damn great
Please, please, please
All I do is ask you please
Oh, for once in your life
Could you make mine ease-easy


If it doesn’t bother you, You're walking me home
I've been covering every base til now alone
You ain't caught any look I've thrown
Don't be the perfect guy who dies old and alone

(Go my way) etc.

Green, green, green
They’re overcome with jealousy
Me, me, me
They'll hate it when you come with me

If it doesn’t bother you, You're walking me home
I've been covering every base til now alone
You ain't caught any look I've thrown
Don't be the perfect guy who dies old and alone

(Go my way) etc.

If it doesn’t bother you, You're walking me home
I've been covering every base til now alone
You ain't caught any look I've thrown
Don't be the perfect guy who dies old and alone

(Go my way) etc.

Go My Way

Just yesterday I was so young
Strawberry fields have just begun
I was a the walrus, I was so sad
I said goodbye, I must have been mad

You can breathe it, love in the air
You can feel it, love in the air
You can see it, love in my stare
There’s a love in your words, a love in your touch, 
a love on your lips, I love you so much

Before I held you, I was so lost
Life was a game regardless of cost
You kissed my mouth and then I was glad
But I was a fool, I didn't know what I had

You can breathe it, love in the air
You can feel it, love in the air
You can see it, love in my stare
There’s a love in your words, a love in your touch, 
a love on your lips, I love you so much

Where we walk, love seems to grow
Above, behind us, and below  
Who around us, would not know
The love in your words, love in your touch, love on your lips

You can breathe it, love in the air
You can feel it, love in the air
You can see it, love in my stare
There’s a love in your words, a love in your touch, 
a love on your lips, I love you so much

(I love you so, love you so, love you so much)
(I love you so, love you so, love you so much)
(I love you so, love you so, love you so much)
Oh, love in your words, love in your touch, 
love on your lips, I love you so much
