Any artist is welcome to send us ONE track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track*. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 11 September: from mid-day 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/batch253

*Note: we don't listen again to tunes we've already heard, and automatically block artists who send more than one track a week (our moderators can just about manage to work their way through 200+ tunes overnight, but 400+ would be impossible!)

ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 253

If one thing gets old DJs shouting at clouds, it's "covers of songs that no one should cover". The 2024 remix of that is Afro-house covers of songs... Well, as you know, we love a good cover at Glasgow Underground, but we thought an Afro-House version of Last Christmas would be too much. But then JOHANNSON went and made one, and EVERYONE from Alex Wann to Black Coffee realised that it was ESSENTIAL. His bootleg, despite being just two weeks old is flying on Soundcloud. We wanted more than just that, though, so, in the quickest turnaround we've ever done and with one of the finest vocals we have heard, here is JOHANNSON with his spell-binding version of the classic "Last Christmas". Holidaying in Dubai this winter just got SOOOO MUCH BETTER.

‘Worthy’ is anchored by soft broken downtempo beats and airy synths, interplaying delicately with minimal piano phrases that buoy HALOSARA’s dreamy vocals. The track swells with gentle intensity, rising to a pinnacle that is soothing yet euphoric.

Producer and multi-disciplinary artist mïus is returning with his latest single ‘Worthy’ featuring the ethereal vocals of HALOSARA, out 21 November 2025 via Théque Records. 

Over six albums, mïus, the live audio-visual project of Gergely Álmos, has become a mainstay in the European electronic scene, earning acclaim from tastemaker publications such as Mixmag, CLASH Magazine, Vice, DJ Mag Spain, Faze Mag, and When We Dip, alongside airplay on BBC Radio 6, Rinse FM, and KCRW to name a few. Boasting over a million streams on Spotify alone, his highly-praised catalogue has attracted remixes from Brandt Brauer Frick, Vessels, and Robot Koch. With releases on major labels such as Sonar Kollektiv, mïus has also landed editorial selection spots on Bandcamp, Spotify’s TOP 50 UK and TOP 50 GERMANY, and a premiere on Mixmag’s YouTube channel for the video of his track ‘Strobe and Noise’.

The creative vision of architect and film set designer Gergely Álmos, mïus blends electronic precision with a visual designer’s sense of structure and detail. Rooted in Budapest’s vibrant art scene, the multi-modal artist’s project merges sound, design, and visual storytelling into a cohesive multi-sensory experience. With a style that would entice fans of the atmospheric electronica of Bonobo, Moderat, and Jon Hopkins, mïus crafts compositions  that are cinematic and emotionally layered, deftly finding a meticulous balance between organic warmth and digital intricacy.

‘Worthy’ is anchored by soft broken downtempo beats and airy synths, interplaying delicately with minimal piano phrases that buoy HALOSARA’s dreamy vocals. The track swells with gentle intensity, rising to a pinnacle that is soothing yet euphoric.

Release info.

Premiere: FENRA - CHICAGO - 6x Records

“If you ever have walked through the corridors of a music school, you will hear piano and other instruments resonating from a distance or from behind walls and doors.  This past October, I had just finished releasing some projects and took a break to write something new.  As I was composing, I had feelings of nostalgia, echoes of the past, places I have been, walking through music school halls, etc and they all came together into this track,  I used effects and distortion to bring out that nostalgic.  “Places” came out of that weekend session. I then went through some old photos from places I have been to create the simple collage for the cover art.”

Places

Released 1st Sept 2017 on Regent Street Records

'YEAH YEAH YEAH' lyrics:

Oh, when my hands are tied
I feel living dead
When I’m by your side
Get on my knees
Pray for the end
For dreams for drugs for sex & love
The death of all your friends

Yeah Yeah Yeah

Try find a way
Just nod your head
Do what you're told
Do what they said
Get on your knees
Pray for the end
For dreams for drugs for sex & love
The death of all your friends

Yeah Yeah Yeah

Pray to your god above
For the untimely demise of everyone you love
Pray to your god above
For dreams for drugs for sex and love
Pray to your god above
For the violent demise of everyone you love
Pray to your god above
For dreams for drugs for sex & love

Yeah Yeah Yeah

ORENT - Wasted (ft. Mila)

Next To Me

Rabbit Holes was written surrounded by nature, by the open widow of a rundown Cornish farm house after a period of listening to a lot of The Tallest Man on Earth. 

The song follows the path of someone yearning to reach their love who has gone to a place that can't be followed. Although they both want to be together, the desperate efforts are seemingly in vein.
