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 24th Jan: 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/batch433

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.

Ascaridida.com is a Trade, Retail and Finance firm that has a footprint all over the world. The firm fortune was built on a pyramidal business model using the Ponzi scheme as well as complex algorithm to find how to influence the purchasing behavior of their customers. The scheme is so simple and so common that nobody care or see it anymore. Combined with a very aggressive marketing strategy, the firm simply could not fail considering that 80% of the customers just can’t understand complex Terms & Conditions. Who read the small prints anyway? Who would believe that no one ever get back a full return on their investment made in their yearly subscription while still paying for the goods and services ordered over and above the subscription. Ascaridida’s doctrine is “In Fraud We Trust” and it pays big money that end up in a fiscal paradise. Obviously the board of directors of Ascaridida Corp. perfectly understood the rice and the chess board story and the power of exponential growth as they are using it every day. Would you know why 3 clear pyramid and one dark pyramid?

The Firm

The Ponzi Scheme

U know it’s my first release in a long time my voice has changed and I no longer try to appear like I’m having fun. Recording music feels like an exorcism to me, hearing my own voice is one of the best and worst feelings it makes me shiver. I’m bound to be a broken teenage girl forever and so r u

Cherry Bomb

Cherry Bomb (The Runaways' Cover)

Lyrics:

I have built a monument to the future and the past
Dropped a pebble in the lake
Where the ripples turn to waves

Set a spark to light beacons
Planted seeds in my Eden
In your box and with this key
A million things I will not see

There will come a far off day when your name is washed away
Never to be said again but for now you're my refrain
Sing you name, sing your name, sing your name out loud
Sing your name out loud

If the fires fade away
Or statues start to decay
You will know just what to say
Tomorrow does not end today

There will come a far off day when your name is washed away
Never to be said again but for now you're my refrain
Sing you name, sing your name, sing your name out loud
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing your name out loud

'Father Figure'
Written and Produced by Michael Burrows

Michael Burrows: Vocals, Guitar, Bass, Drums, Percussion
Marco Spaggiari: Guitar, Keys

Lyrics:
Have you ever seen a father figure look beaten down
He wants to make ends meet, but he just doesn’t know how
I’ve seen men give away themselves to make things right
I hope it doesn’t come to that

I can feel the weight, I can feel the weight
As I tread my own circle
I know it won’t compare, to the cross
The other bears

An old man’s stop on a young man’s back
A pallid complexion from the late nights and early starts
It can’t be good to see so much
Of the streetlights and so little of the sun
I see him struggling to hold it together
But he’s still standing, trying to make it last

I can feel the weight, I can feel the weight
As I tread my own circle
I know it won’t compare, to the cross
The other bears

We’re all still here, plugging away 
Asking the same old questions
It’s so easy to do too many things badly
How can you give enough, and keep a little for yourself?

I can feel the weight, I can feel the weight
As I tread my own circle
I know it won’t compare, to the cross
The mother bears

Father Figure

Solved

i was listening to bill wurtz's song, and the day goes on, and I wanted to make an 8-bit cover of it. i'm really proud of this.

and the day goes on (8-Bit)

i wrote this song back in spring 2018. i was feeling homesick and lost. during this difficult time both of my older brothers were so supportive and helpful. our bond has always been insanely strong and sincere. we have always been there for each other. 
this is a song about us.
