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 5th May 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/batch568

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.

2 the sky

LYRICS
Glorified, paralyzed, and wired
Paying dues, falling through, expired
Matador at your core go higher
The black beast she conspires 

Run away, run away, run away
The bull has entered the fray
Run away, run away, run away
It’s time for you to pay

Ooo
Run away
Ow ow
Run away
Ooo
Runaway
Runaway
Run away, run away, run away
The bull has entered the fray

Justify don’t decry  little mayfly
They misuse make you bruise pretty liar
Revolting, provoking a thousand nervous smiles
Playing foul just once in a while

Run away, run away, run away
The bull has entered the fray
Run away, run away, run away
It’s time for you to pay

Run away, run away, runaway
Run away, run away, run away
Run away, run away, run away
The bull has entered the fray

Run away, run away, run away
The bull has entered the fray
Run away, run away, run away
It’s time for you to pay

Run away, run away, run away
The bull has entered the fray
Run away, run away, run away
It’s time for you to pay

The BULL ($hit)

💋 Come closer she wants to bite

Lyrics
The flower girl hunting with her wiles
Plucking hearts like daisies in the wild
Carefree soul with an angel’s smile
The devil hiding in her guile    

Heart-taker, maneater
Cherry lips that make you linger
Heart-taker, maneater
Twisting ‘round all her ten fingers

Wilding one as dark as they come
Batting lashes until you succumb
 Pour souls slinkin’ in one by one 
A pretty face you can’t escape from  

Heart-taker, man-eater
Cherry lips that make you linger 
Heart-taker, maneater
Twisting round all her ten fingers


Flower girl on the prowl
Dewdrop kisses from her red roses
Ravished reveries, the thorns you devour
Silky pleas, wanton threats she imposes

Come closer, she wants to bite
Come closer, she wants to bite

Heart-taker, maneater
Cherry lips that make you linger
Heart-taker, maneater
Twisting round all her ten fingers

Heart-taker, man-eater
Cherry lips that make you linger

F girl

LYRICS
When you drag yourself through the dust 
Into the heart of darkness you are thrust
Animosity and animality 
Tasty morsels of cheerful disgust

You, you, you and your savagery
Their blissful ignorance inviting vanity
Salivating at their zealous inanity
Mouthwatering pieces of your broken mentality

Jump straight into the fire
You're burning through your dollars
Jump straight into the fire
Your water’s running drier

Jump straight into the fire
You're burning through your dollars
Jump straight into the fire
Your water’s running drier

Pathetic dissonance of your insolence
Loss of fallacy, your jaded innocence
Durability and gullibility
Sugar coated candy crushing influence 

You, you, you and your savagery
Their blissful ignorance inviting vanity
Salivating at their zealous inanity
Mouthwatering pieces of your broken mentality

Jump straight into the fire
You're burning through your dollars
Jump straight into the fire
Your water’s running drier

Jump straight into the fire
You're burning through your dollars
Jump straight into the fire
Your water’s running drier

Jump straight into the fire
You're burning through your dollars
Jump straight into the fire
Your water’s running drier

Jump straight into the fire
You're burning through your dollars
Jump straight into the fire
Your water’s running drier

You're burning through your dollars

Savage Animality

LYRICS
Run, run little rabbit 
The fox is laughing in this midnight hour
Sating all my desires
Through the stone cold heart of liar

Sha na na na na 
I don’t care
My soul is on fire
It’s burning to hell 
Sha na na na na 
Don’t you dare
Your heartbeats turn dire
Sweet hunted beware 

Sha na na na na
Sha na na na na

Craving the spell that you’re under
Fear is the drug that’s making you falter (run run little rabbit)
Chasing your lips and my secrets (run run far away) 
Dirty seed sprouting in your brain 

Sha na na nan na na
I don’t care
My soul is on fire
It’s burning to hell 
Sha na na na na
Don’t you dare
Your heartbeats turn dire
Sweet hunted beware 

Sha na na na na na na na oh
Sha na na na na na
Sha na na na no
Sha na na na 

Little rabbit stalked by the fox
Taking short breaths an aching paradox 
Little rabbit bewildered by thought
Give in open pandora’s box

Run run little rabbit
Run run far away

Run run far away

Run RRRABBIT

I Said

LYRICS
Life’s a bitch, and I’m leftover
Drowning in the air I breath
My misery is growing bolder 
‘Cause it loves my company
Feeding my dependency
I’m just a clown smiling upside down
Bleeding my resiliency
I die with my happy frown 

Oh no no no, Mr. Rousseau 
Oh no no no, nobody’s home  (no no no no)
Oh no no no, Mr. Rousseau (Oh no no Mr. Rousseau)
Oh no no no no no nobody’s home

When I was young
Ooo and my dreams still far-flung
They said to make my way
Filled my head with shit led me astray
Feeding my dependency
I’m just a clown smiling upside down
Bleeding my resiliency
I die with my happy frown   
 
Oh no no no, Mr. Rousseau (no no no)
Oh no no no no no, nobody’s home
Oh no no no, Mr. Rousseau (Oh no, Mr. Rousseau)
Oh no no no no no nobody’s home

Oh, society corrupting 
The purity of your soul
Freedom and equality

Ooo

Oh no no no, Mr. Rousseau 
Oh no no no, nobody’s home 
Oh no no no, Mr. Rousseau 
Oh no no no no no nobody’s home


Oh no! Mr. Rousseau

Cloned Syndrome

Written about Cumbria, Tulips Pink is about coming home for Spring; about feeling lost and yearning to be back.

Tulips Pink

Imma Do Me

LYRICS 
When you think you know the world breaks in your hands
Slipping through the gaps in your fingers
Filtered through the mess of a million grains of sand
The moments we spent still linger

Quiet my darling
Let’s stay just this way
Filled with nothing but our sad embrace
Shh my lover
Let’s just hover
In the depths of our resounding disgrace

When I think of you
And my head’s a mess
Makes me feel so blue
And my head’s a mess

When I think of you
And my head’s a mess
Makes me feel so blue
And my head’s a mess

And my head’s a mess
And my head’s a mess
And my head’s a mess oh yeah

Drink in the morning
Drink in the evening
Drink for the giggles and the shit that comes our way
Sink to the bottom of the empty bottles
Slink to the warmth of one another displaced

When I think of you
And my head’s a mess
Makes me feel so blue
And my head’s a mess

When I think of you
And my head’s a mess
Makes me feel so blue
And my head’s a mess

And my head’s a mess
And my head’s a mess
And my head’s a mess
ooo ooo

My head’s a mess, oh

LYRICS
Drinking from the serpent’s mind
A dying ouroboros out of line
Enemy of the pendulum swings
Pensive passing of all good things   
Well mothers, fathers, sisters, and brothers too
Don’t forget the serpent well he’s mighty shrewd
 
Oh my my my I just woke up
Feeling fine cause I don’t give a fuck
Oh my my my I just woke up
Feeling fine cause I don’t give a fuck
  
Destiny is a fickle fiend
Making fun of our catastrophes
Bending to the parasites
The serpent’s tail wags for money’s might
So mothers, fathers, sisters, and brothers too
Drink from the serpent’s mind it’s all you can do

Oh my my my I just woke up
Feeling fine cause I don’t give a fuck
Oh my my my I just woke up
Feeling fine cause I don’t give a fuck

Oh my my my I just woke up
Feeling fine cause I don’t give a fuck
Oh my my my I just woke up
Feeling fine cause I don’t give a fuck

Oh my my my I just woke up (oh my oh my oh ma-ma-my)
Feeling fine cause I don’t give a fuck (oh my oh my oh ma-ma-my)
Oh my my my I just woke up (oh my oh my oh ma-ma-my)
Feeling fine cause I don’t give a fuck
