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 6th October 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/batch584

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.

Sufjan Stevens - Mystery Of Love (Niklas Thal Remix)

Ahead of the release of his new EP ‘Limitations’, Cyrano shares the introspective title track - a raw, self-reflective anthem for anyone grappling with identity, burnout, and the quiet struggle to keep moving forward. With his signature honesty and cinematic production, ‘Limitations’ captures the tension between self-awareness and self-doubt, unfolding through late-night chats on an open road. Written between time zones and emotional states, it’s Cyrano at his most vulnerable, yet most resilient. Cyrano returns next month for a special EP launch show, raising funds for War Child and those displaced from their homes due to conflict.

Limitations lyrics:

Well I guess I know my limitations
And I’m not hard defined
Well I guess I know my limitations
And I’m not hard defined
Well I guess I know my limitations

It’s typical me to leave a moment
In the sight of everyone
As I try to overcome
My typical need to be heroic
As I’m lent my time by sleep
Is this the life I want to keep?

And I'm not hard defined

Well I guess I know my limitations
And I’m not hard defined
Well I guess I know my limitations
And I’m not hard defined
Well I guess I know my limitations

In the sight of everyone
I was tired and overrun
But like the whole of my head now
I’m not hard defined

And I'm not hard defined
And I’m not hard defined
Well I guess I know my limitations

Limitations - Single

Limitations

At a Cost is about that last day before the other one moves out — the crushing, silent tears of an ending that couldn’t be prevented, the trying to make it lighter for the other person’s sake. And the parallel of traveling to new countries without a map, without directions… it might end up a catastrophe, and there’ll definitely be some homesickness, but ultimately, it’s an adventure. A new life, at the cost of the old one that was no longer sustainable. 

A huge thanks goes to Stefano De Stefano/An Early Bird to be the one initiating the creation of this song, and being a huge part of the songwriting as well as the one playing the guitar.

At a Cost lyrics:

It’s the last day we have together
Don’t be sad or take it bad, let’s talk about the weather
We don’t have much to say now
And the past keeps calling on 
I may not call – won’t know how  
For a while

It’s the last conversation, I guess
I’m still glad for every single caress
We can celebrate a new night 
Or wait hidden in the twilight
There’s nothing left to smile
About

We’re on the road again, there’s no map
Coordinates are lost 
Run away and hide, or face the gap
Life will come at a cost
At a cost

At a cost

The dream we dreamt is gone now…

We’re on the road again, there’s no map
Coordinates are lost 
Run away and hide, or face the gap
Life will come at a cost
Oh, at a cost

On the road again, there’s no map
Coordinates are lost 
Run away and hide, or face the gap
Either way, love comes at a cost
At a cost

It’s the last day we have together 
Don’t be sad, nothing lasts forever

At a Cost

Losing Faith

Better About You Now is a raw and fierce alt-rock anthem about reclaiming your power after betrayal. With gritty guitars, punchy drums, and unapologetic vocals, it channels the energy of bands like Nothing But Thieves and Wolf Alice, but with a fresh, emotionally charged edge. It’s about moving on, not quietly; but with fire. This song is for anyone who's done feeling sorry, and ready to cathartically scream it out loud.

Bloom Bonus Track - The Paper Kites (Leo Bilder Remix)

Tidal Wave is about that flood of emotion when you let yourself feel fully, even if it crashes in all at once. The temporary drowning that can lead to clarity.
This project came together as I let go, as I let the wave take me where it needed to. I was trying to be honest, learning not to hide from what hurts.
Written, produced & mixed entirely by me.

King Cedar - The Oil Fields Of San Pedro.wav

Anchored by driving drums and ethereal vocals, 'SHADOWWORK' is an invitation to embrace your inner dark feminine energy. With its emotionally charged lyrics and heavy dramatic sound influenced by Chelsea Wolfe, Nick Cave, and Kate Bush, the single showcases Catherine Elms as a bold and introspective artist in the Welsh alternative music scene.

'SHADOWWORK' is the final track from Catherine's sophomore album, 'Bring In The Wild' (August 2025). The album draws inspiration from Jungian psychology and shadow work, inviting the listener to confront and embrace our inner shadows that we usually push away, so that we can fully accept and love ourselves.
