Thanks for another beautiful composition! Great!!!

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 21st October: from around midday on Friday 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/batch341

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 SoundCloud Go tracks, which can only be heard as 30 second previews, and tracks made private after submission, which will be invisible to everyone. You will be able to resubmit the track in future. Tracks that have been previously submitted will also be removed.

About the CD:
A seminal selection for our 175 episode. Featuring a CD has that mystic quality sitting on the store shelves of HMV or whichever record store you shopped in. With unforgettable artwork and a sound that has gone onto secure its classic status. And although I didn't buy this first release... I had a subconscious feeling it was something very special indeed.

Thanks to everyone for sharing this, especially the Facebook followers and good friend Ross Haswell. Oh and a special shout out to Paul for reminding me of this one!

Ps. Northern Exposure 2 is also on the site, which is a personal favourite of mine, go check it out and don't forget to buy the cds on Discogs

Turn it up, and enjoy the mix!

Technicolor Dreams - Single

Technicolor Dreams

How long
Blood moon horizon, the town it is sleeping,
Walked to the mountain’s end,
A gale started blowing, it shattered a window,
Into a dusky red,
Solar aligns, bringing light, to the eye,
An arrow of time, with no past, no future,
Brick and mortar thrown up to serve man’s need,
Cuts the open sky and lets the old talk breathe,

In the moments of your body,
In the stillness of the sky,
Lies the root of my existence, 
Where infinity resides,

Beneath a blood red night I will follow on,
How long will you be there?
As order turns to a form of a slow chaos,
How long would you be there?
How long will you be there?

How Long (Radio Edit)

This is a song about a girl that I really loved. Things just didn't work out. I am still hurt a little, so I made a song to release what's left inside. Inhale, exhale... new beginnings.

Love Language Speaks

'Run Run' explores my depression at a time when everything becomes too much and I need to escape. When I'm this far deep I feel ethereal, on the outside, unable to be present yet knowing that I 'should' be combatting this force.

Run Run

I made a facebook profile after years of making music! Yeah I'm pretty productive, not to brag or anything... 2 more years i'll have an insta too

Fresh On The Net is a music blog hosted by Tom Robinson and Team Freshnet, offering independent artists an open door and a level playing field for their music. Our inbox is open at http://freshonthenet.co.uk every Monday to Thursday morning - if you share a track with us there it will be heard by every member of our moderation team.

IMPORTANT: 
Only send ONE track, and make sure the dropbox says "OPEN".  Sorry, but tracks sent while the dropbox is closed - or shared drectly with this Soundcloud account - will not get heard.

Members are John McManus (vocals/guitar), Gary Graham (guitar/vocals), Gerard McHugh (vocals/percussion/keyboard), Michael McKinney (bass/double bass), Declan McCartan (cello) and Rory McAuley (drums/percussion).

Originally coming from a couple of small rural villages in the Glens of Antrim and Belfast runabay are six musicians who through their passion for harmony and melody have been writing and recording since late December 2013.

Runabay are at the forefront of fresh, new music in Northern Ireland, a sound which has undeniably been shaped by the beautiful coastline which surrounds the Glens of Antrim and is felt through the swooping melodies and poignant lyrics. The band produce a mature sound that leaves the listener hanging on the intricate guitar riffs, mellow three part harmonies and haunting cello.

Notable highlights are national airplay on BBC 6Music with both Tom Robinson and Steve Lamacq's shows playing singles, airtime on RTE 2FM with Dan Hegarty, Today Fm with Louise Duffy, several plays on Amazing Radio with Charlie Ashcroft, Katheryn Tickell and Jim Gellatly. Massive local support from several shows on Radio Ulster (too many to thank there). Not forgetting KCLR Roddie Cleerie and Martin Bridgeman.

Spotify playlists have also picked up on the music coming from the Glens of Antrim with songs having success on a few high profile playlists like; Best of Indie Folk 2016, Alternative 2017 New Music Friday, Fresh Finds: Six Strings, Best of Ruby Sessions 2016 and Clans .: Vibes :.
