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 4th March 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/batch521

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.

Noctalgia

Prepare for an adrenaline-pumping experience as these two hip-hop heavyweights bring the heat.

From the gritty streets to the studio, witness the journey as Kidd Kidd and B.G. lay down their unapologetic verses against a backdrop of street life and undeniable authenticity. 

Kidd Kidd, known for his razor-sharp flow and gritty storytelling, teams up with the legendary B.G., whose influence on the rap game is undeniable.

Yellow Tape ft. B.G.

Ramblin’ along with the help of ukulele and simple percussion, the optimistic, summertime vibe of ‘Happy Place’ summons a longing for simplicity and the comforting familiarity of a favourite holiday spot or childhood memory. Influenced by the light, bouncy sounds of artists such as Ed Sheeran or George Ezra, this song captures the contentment of standing still for a moment in this mad world and the beauty of simple pleasures.

Liverpool based duo APRIL MOON met Brighton born Kirzy on the Canary Island while playing music at local bars several years ago and knew that their music styles would be an interesting combination although this is the first time they’ve attempted songwriting together.

Happy Place

I had a fun 140bpm mix with some of the excellent electronic music I have received recently, as well as a few non electronic songs, and some of my own tracks.. Winds down with a little 120bpm at the end, because I really didn't want to go to bed...

Some tracks have been massively pitched up, some pitched down, and some have been looped. 

It was all for the good of the country.

Will Farr's Eclectic Mix Volume 3

Last one from Gary Taylor Tonight enjoy this quirk from me GT x.

Gary Taylor - Testing Testing

I just ate a salad for dinner 
The best one in the supermarket 
It lured me away from the counter 
But poisoned my gut in an instant 
With layers of ripe plum tomatoes 
And crispy bits hidden within it 
All swimming in soft mayonnaise it's 
A savoury sweet combination 
So sick I was I thought I'd snuffed it 
The last one that I'm ever eating 
They say it's because I'm a target 
A magnet for salads they're saying 
The problem could well be my liver 
The problem could well be my karma 
If only I had been successful 
If only I had been more healthy 
If only I had been more noticed
Or maybe I have too much talent
Too brave and too honest & friendly 
It's clear to be seen that the salad's 
Foremost motivation was envy 
Could it be the fact of the matter 
That I was so sly and so cunning 
In times of great woe and despondence 
The salad was caught unsuspecting 
And ruthlessly cruelly pursuing 
A dish of both fame and importance 
I swallowed it down without mercy 
And suddenly salads all over 
Stood up on behalf of their comrade 
The dressing was finely concocted 
The balance of flavours was fitting 
But Rational doctor Sound Judgement 
Whose thinking is frankly outstanding

Put forward his case oh so clearly 
The salad had far too much mayo

A guide to social distancing

Lights Out

Free Download

I think we humans now sit in each of our survival suits, while living off getting endorphins, happiness and wellness from social media. We have become prisoners in our own homes where we no longer need to meet others. It lasts as long as you have something electronic to be social with. But heart beats, you go on and on, you have to make money to create happiness in your own home.
