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 26th February: 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/batch520

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.

Cake By The Ocean (Young Guifo Remix)

Hand to Hold (Extended Mix)

Sunyata is an instrumental purist and composes for a live sound.
If he writes for other instruments, he does it, knowing full well a good player could do this. So this attitude to create a live sound despite everything being digital except for the guitars of course, has the track sound as it does.

Chris does the general production and any trim novel sound sourcing and if we both agree with the over all, its on!

Lyrics:
Beauty emerges
From the depths below
She’s mesmerizing
With a sinister glow
Captivating
Like nothing I’ve seen
Intoxicating
A sensual dream
Bound to be my doom
Beauty emerges
From the depths below
Unstoppable passion
With a villainous glow
So enthralled with you
Bound to be my doom
Beauty emerges
From the depths below

Beauty Emerges From the Depths Below

I see hate
その熟れた果実群がる
美味 似た甘い話
その甘い蜜に回る回る回る回る 廃棄物

明日は何色の顔色の伺い 如何様に
他人なんて 他もなく
自分なんて 為もなく
他人なんて 誰でもなく
自分なんて 誰でも

アレコレ希薄に吠える口
感動押し売るエゴイズム
その薄気味悪さに首垂れ
夢語るだけのナルシズム

タダ マダ イマ 他責の海
タダ マダ イマ カルト的に
タダ マダ イマ 貪り尽くす
タダ マダ イマ お前が嫌い

ただ 縄をかける首に罪はない
その甘い果てに回る回る回る回る 廃棄物 回る回る回る回る
明日は何色の顔色の伺い 如何様に

楽しい?

無自覚の悪意に気づかず
人の死 ダシにバラードかい?
その事実に泥塗り笑み浮かべ
夢見がちポエム歌うかい?

Im dying
夜更け過ぎの
社会不適合者 俺の厄災なれ
不安感に 削られ 剥がされ 絞められ
誰にも 理解も得られず

Im dying
夜明け前の
薬切れた身体 俺の厄災なれ
誰の群れも属せず 孤独に消えろ
誰の理解も得ずに 孤独に消えろ

🌫️ DJ J Instinct – “Lonely” ft. Tom Stonehill
💿 A chilled DNB reflection on loss, survival, and the search for belonging

“Lonely” is a soul-baring track that captures the emotional turbulence of DJ J Instinct’s journey after leaving home. It’s a sonic memoir of losing both parents to illness, drifting between homes and jobs, and chasing love while being anchored by the need to survive.

Featuring the evocative vocals of Tom Stonehill, the track blends atmospheric pads, subtle breaks, and deep basslines to create a soundscape that feels both intimate and expansive. It’s about the ache of not knowing where to run, and the quiet resilience of moving forward without a map.

This is music for the wanderers, the wounded, and the ones still searching.
🖤 “Lonely” doesn’t just echo pain—it transforms it into something beautiful.
