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 8th 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/batch394

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 that have been previously submitted and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

Ten Times Harder

BREED - Get With It

This feelings track of the day, northern exposoures track of the week

Stray Scene  Every dog has its day

Lost bullets find their way to little hearts 
big dreams of classes and all their parts
Shots fired, little lungs run out of air 
they’ll be good if they survive, they swear 
Their school bleeds from all corners
each week they welcome new mourners
Stray bullets, shots fired, the war on drugs 
little dreamers between cops and thugs
Corpses that never got to grow full size
Too much pigment for politicians to empathize 
Their education lost to the drug trade 
Their lives lost to bullets that strayed
Battles on the news between vain fixes
Ignored by those worshiping crucifixes

The day life stopped in the shanty town
days, weeks, months, it comes back around
Build walls here to keep them out
little girls sold there to the local talent scout
The bricks are designed to keep you in
Freedom up to the choice of your guillotine 
Those bellow gave up hope long ago
Those above maintain the status quo

This year he had single digit geography lessons
But he can name tons of vicious weapons
Conditioned to find life a normality 
with the constant threat of senseless brutality
born to brown parents with empty pockets
1% indifferent as living-cost skyrockets
Legal pharmaceuticals profiting from the sick
Those trying to decriminalize seen as lunatics
Exclusion begins with a lack of arithmetic
Inclusion is stalled by insidious politics
They stare at the same sky but their roofs are different
Watch them die on a new t.v., their suffering insignificant
Favelas periodically suffer a disease outbreak
Not enough think about which side to take

The day life stopped in the shanty town
days, weeks, months, it comes back around
Build walls here to keep them out
little girls sold there to the local talent scout
The bricks are designed to keep you in
Freedom up to the choice of your guillotine 
Those bellow gave up hope long ago
Those above maintain the status quo

Deferred Hope

I wrote this song thinking about things I wish I could forget. With all my music, I want to capture a feeling and create a little universe.
