Very nice sir. Melody is fantastic - very electronic as well. 

Oh wow the vocals are fantastic mate as are your use of reverbs/phasing effects, its got a really full sound to it pushed on by the drums, another cracker matey

Rich warm and rousing uplifting journey! Sounds kewl! Nice 1 :)

Feel good Rock/Pop song! Sounds really cool; smooth & relaxing!

This very laid back version is also very good of course.

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 14th 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/batch340

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.

One of the first people I met on this platform was the wonderful Societe Cantine. He listened with open ears and offered indepth thoughts on my music and sparked conversation and experimentation. He, himself a mind-blowing sound artist, has released a  string of albums over the last decade that still sing with originality and genre breaking optimism. We danced round the edges of collaboration for a longtime, adding little bits of sound to bigger projects or producing video. Just before COVID hit the world we finally met in Paris - I had so much talk about, as did he.. like children we struggled with face to face language; his english is good, my french is terrible : ) We decided that we should finally start collaborating in depth and this is the first piece - conceived and played with, back and forth during lockdown COVID times. Naturally enough we titled it Language Gap after our initial stumbling meeting. It got an honourary mention in the 2023 One Minute Radio Festival and through that has been played all over the world . Fardeau Losange (as he now known) and I are working now, very slowly on some sort of album - it will take forever, but its almost secondary to the friendship that has grown around the music we have listened to, written and shared on this platform.   https://societecantine.bandcamp.com/album/lopacit-des-interlignes

Takakuwa Rankō was a haijin from Kanazawa and a student of Wada Kiin. Born into a wealthy merchant family, he travelled all over Japan and finally settled in Kyoto, practising as a doctor. A great admirer of Bashō, he erected a small shrine (the Bashō-dō 芭蕉堂) in his honour in 1783. Among his main pupils was the poet Sakurai Baishitsu.

Friede Freude Eierkuchen

"Who Knows Where the Time Goes?" is a song written by the English folk-rock singer and songwriter Sandy Denny.
The song is a reflection in three verses on observed events ("Across the evening sky all the birds are leaving"). Denny writes that she does not count time ("Before the winter's fire, I will still be dreamin'; I have no thought of time" and in the last line of the short chorus asks rhetorically, "Who knows where the time goes?". The last verse includes the lines "I am not alone while my love is near me, I know it will be so until it's time to go.”         Wikipedia

Who Knows Where the Time Goes - Fairport Convention

This song was written & recorded on the day that John Prine passed away in April 2020...

Make the snow go
Make the wind blow
Let the spring come
Let the sun show

Give the new sky
Some new sunshine
Give this old world
Some more John Prine

Make the outlaw
Make the front door
Let the lock set
Let the hurt roar

Give the new sky
Some new sunshine
Give this old world
Some more John Prine

Run the border
Run the water
Let the fever break
Let it for her

Give the new sky
Some new sunshine
Give this old world
Some more John Prine

Cover/remake of Bethlehem Dawn by Todd Agnew. Not very widely known, yet hands down one of my favorite modern Christmas songs!

Check out my playlist of Christmas music I've recorded: https://on.soundcloud.com/XnnWxQoBAZBGMjg46

BETHLEHEM DAWN

The sunrise was beautiful this morning
But somehow it seemed that everything was darker than the sky
We had seen just a few hours ago
As the angels sang a song of joy.

Not even the Bethlehem dawn
Could compare to the Light it revealed
Not even the Bethlehem sun
That unveiled the Son of God, sleeping in a cattle stall
The Almighty God, humbled to save us all
Not even the Bethlehem dawn

The cry of a baby shatters the silence
Can you believe that same voice makes my heart beat
And the tears in His eyes, and in His mothers and fathers
Are tears for all mankind

This little baby is crying my tears for me,
This little baby is bathing in my shame,
This little baby is giving up his glory 
To take my place, to light the way

Not even the Bethlehem dawn
Could compare to the Light it revealed
Not the Jerusalem sun
That unveiled the Son of God hanging on a cross
The Almighty God, dying to save the lost
And can you believe what He sacrificed for me
On that Bethlehem dawn

Bethlehem Dawn- Christmas 2024

Like The Story Said

Mama Said

You're Not The Freaks

I Could Be Wrong

Say what you will or what you really want from me
Tell me all about the things I’ve done
Say when you will or when you won’t get back to me
Tell me what it is that I’ve become

Take me as I am
Heaven knows I’ve tried
But I could be wrong

Romeo did not hold back from Juliet
Even when their fateful time had come
Heathcliff took his Katherine up to the heights
Only for their love to tumble down…when all’s said and done

Take me as I am
Heaven knows I’ve tried
But I could be wrong

Shame me if you want to
But you know I’ll always try to make it up to you

Take me as I am
Heaven knows I’ve tried
But I could be wrong

But I could be wrong
But I could be wrong
But I could be wrong

Take me as I am
Heaven knows I’ve tried
But I could be wrong

I Could Be Wrong

Lyrics:

Quintessential English sounds awake a reverential English town
Put down your bags, put on your shoes, 
We’re going underground.
To where the river flows and where the heartbeat gets a little bit louder. 

Cause I am calling from a pay-phone, asking ‘what do you believe?’
Is that the way the compass points or is it the way it’s been perceived?
Save up your pennies, though talk is cheap 
And your credit card keeps whispering: ‘Ask and you shall receive’.

You should be afraid of the price of doubt,
The river’s running through but it’s not running out. 
Sometimes you might feel like you’re stuck in a cage
Don’t wait for the dust to settle, don’t wait for the tide to change.

We do pirouettes with promises and lie about our weaknesses
The traffic flows, the feeling grows, but what’s lost has now been found 
And as you awake to find a city made of glass
A universe indifferent to your culture or your class
Step away, step away and put away that mask.

Cause I am calling from a pay-phone, asking ‘what do you believe?’
Is that the way the compass points or is it the way it’s been perceived?
Save up your pennies, though talk is cheap 
And your credit card keeps whispering: ‘Ask and you shall receive’.

Cause you should be afraid of the price of doubt,
The river’s running through but it’s not running out. 
Sometimes you might feel like you’re stuck in a cage
Don’t wait for the dust to settle, don’t wait for the tide to change.

The Price of Doubt
