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 10th October: 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/batch462

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.

Lyrics:

Give Me Something

Can I get a wake up
Can I get a morning song
The one without the make up
The one to hang my kisses on

You'd disappear in seconds
I gotta keep my eye on you
With every word I miss you
Just tell me when I'm warm will you

You're in the rear mirror
Further away than you appear
Well I guess you never saw me the way I needed you to, dear

Remember when you caught me
Remember when I fucked it up
If nothing really matters 
You might as well just

Give me something when I my knees
Give me something when I cannot breathe
Give me something
Give me something

Give me something when I'm all alone
Give me something when I lose my hope
Give me something
Give me something
Give me something

Yes I'm sentimental hearted 
I guess you've noticed that I'm always three moves ahead
It takes time to make time, and I'm all out
When I jump, will you fall, will you catch me up

Sometimes I try to cut myself in two
Spell love with a capital U
I'm a round, square in a rubix cube
So changing's all I do

Give me something when I my knees
Give me something when I cannot breathe
Give me something
Give me something

Give me something when I lose myself
Give me something that I could not know
Give me something
Give me something

And when you fall asleep I'm gonna take you dancing
In the midnight hours, when the clocks slow
I wanna burn this city, until you show
Until you show

So give something when I'm on my knees
Give me something when I can not breathe 
Give me something
Give me something

Give me something when I'm all alone
Give me something when I lose me home
Give me something
Give me something

Give me something when I lose myslef
Show me love and show me well
Give me something
Give me something
Give me something

Won't you give me something
Give me something
Won't you give me something
Give me something
Won't you give me something
Give me something
Won't you give me something
Give me something

Give Me Something

ALWAYS A TEASPOON (Hytch)

‘If you’re still leaving’ is one of the pivotal moments from elkyn's debut album, 'holy spirit social club', released in March 2022. A masterclass in tension and release, graceful guitar work with a gorgeous ambient undertow, the track is revisited here and stripped to its human essentials. Backed with two acoustic reworks of other elkyn songs, recorded at UK radio sessions earlier this year.

'holy spirit social club's release was backed by an extensive UK tour alongside ST Manville followed by dates with LOVE. The vinyl release came courtesy of Curation Records, the label run by Brent Rademaker of Beachwood Sparks. Media and retail support came from the likes of Record Collector, Shindig!, RnR Magazine, Americana UK, Atwood, Secret Meeting, For the Rabbits, God Is In The TV, Joyzine, BBC Radio 6 Music, Radio X, Amazing Radio, Rough Trade, Norman, Record Store and more.

Releasing five albums in 2023. Watch this space I guess.


Spending his childhood years travelling under his Dad’s DJ booth, in the spit and sawdust nightclubs of England, Si Connelly emerged, with a vast pallet of in�uences and a suitcase of emotionally cracked songs.
After years on the underground touring scene, London based Singer-Songwriter Si Connelly released his long-awaited debut album ‘Youth War & Joy’ in 2016, on the West One Music label.
Written and recorded whilst living out of his car, Si managed to impress, Brit-Award-winning Producer Chris Potter (The Verve, Blur, The Rolling Stones) and Grammy-Award winning Producer Dom Morley (Adele, Amy Winehouse) to help create his debut album for free.
The albums lead track ‘Hurt You’ featured on hit ITV drama Monroe, and was also picked up by Coldplay, who backed Si’s vocal performance. Hurt You peaked at 19 on the UK iTunes chart, and the album went on to receive radio and television placement in many territories, including Radio 2 airplay and encouragement from Jonathon Ross in the UK.
After a successful crowd-funding campaign, 2017 saw the release of Si’s second album ‘Eject’ (Sony/Chrysalis), featuring multiple producers; Sam Williams (Supergrass), Bacon & Quarmby (KT Tunstall), Chenzo Townsend (James Blunt/Keane), Mike Crossey (Arctic Monkeys). This double- album featuring a massive 24-tracks, was quickly followed up by a third album ‘13 Ghosts’.
Both Eject and 13 Ghosts featured singles picked up by 6 Music and BBC Introducing.
Alongside this as a songwriter, Si has also co-written for The Voice UK winner Stevie McCrorie and has worked with Boyzone, Guvna B and Annie Lennox.
After a long period of touring the UK, Europe and the US, Si released a number of singles from his upcoming forth album ‘Change’. The self-produced remix album Change (set for release in March 2022) features a host of tracks recorded
