Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning (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 23rd November: 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/batch387

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 that have been previously submitted and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

Local Fool

Written, performed and produced by Paul Lappin ©2023
Mastered by Tide Studios

I need to feel
Your hand on my skin
I need to love
And I need to be loved
I need to leave
Spend time on my own
I need to be
Away from it all

Unfortunately you
Fall between the two
And there’s nothing here
That can change my mind
There’s nothing here
That will mend with time

Take my heart
My head’s taken over
I’ve got everything
But a world of my own
I need to stay
And I need to keep moving
A life alone
For a freedom to roam

Unfortunately you
Fall between the two
There’s nothing here
That can change my mind
There’s nothing here
That will mend with time

Unfortunately You

The second single released from The Frisbys upcoming E.P 'My Wicked Mind'. My Wicked Mind is released on 26th June 2020 via Dantbaccus Records.

Lyrics:
Bright lights, inner city
Your mouth tastes sweet
I get so alone now
I just don't know what I

Feel your getting closer
Feel you inside my head
So scared I could drop this
I just don't know what I like
Know what I like...

Heart aches, lungs are burning
Room seeps sweat and smoke
Whispered I know what's better
I just don't know what I,
know what I, know what I

Woah lead me to the water
Lead me  back to you
Woah lead me to the water
Lead me back to you

Embrace this night for sinners
Know the devils out
Guarded I let him take me
I just don't know what I
Know what I, know what I


Woah Lead me to the water
Lead me  back to you
Woah Lead me to the water
Lead me back to you

Hold me down to the river
Let me lay my head
Hold me down to the river 
Let me lay my head

My Wicked Mind

Lead Me To The Water

The Boy Who Wants to Fly

Serendipity

‘End Credits’ is a nihilistic yet optimistic track about slipping into the unknown of the afterlife. Musically joyous, lyrically dower this track perfectly sums up the highs and lows of realising our human condition as we hopelessly and defiantly trudge towards the end.

End Credits

My Life. Your Life. Our Life is released on Friday December 4 2020. From debut album Distance which is now available wherever you listen: https://ffm.to/distancealbum

My Life. Your Life. Our Life - Popcorn Fiend

"... a blend of indie, rock and pop which is at turns melodic, euphoric and soulful but always honest, relevant, reflective and passionately in love with life."
