Artwork:  Remedios Varo -- Creacion de las aves  (do yourself a favor and see it full on in the link below)

https://historia-arte.com/obras/la-creacion-de-las-aves

It's simply amazing how much talent there is out there/here.

In order of acquisition, not ranked.  A celebration of just a few of the wonderful tunes people are making here.  More accessible Pop sounds but there is no guilt in this pleasure.  The list will grow...

Gorgeous Pop (all pleasure no guilt)

Cheers

Diving for pearls

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 7 Feb: 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/batch435

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.

ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 435

Summer 2025 Discoveries.

Many people simply want to hear and enjoy some great new music without having to waste time searching for hours. These Musical Discoveries collections aim to fulfil those needs. At least, we hope so! :)

This playlist is a compilation of the favourite musical discoveries of the Wud Records team from everything they heard at SoundCloud during May, June and July 2025.

Tracks have been arranged according to the number of plays at the moment of publishing, starting with the fewest. Tracks that are early in playlists tend to receive more plays than later tracks, and we feel that the ones with fewer plays need the best chance of exposure.

Why not promote your track on social media and watch it overtake the play counts on later tracks? Now there's a challenge!

These compilations used to be monthly, but with the algorithms becoming ever more squeezed, fewer people are finding and listening to them now. If listenership should increase, we may revert to monthly playlists again. More here: https://www.wudrecords.co.uk/news/wud-records-future-of-musical-discoveries/

This playlist is extremely eclectic, so if the track you are playing isn't quite doing it for you, try the next one. It will probably be completely different.

If you enjoyed listening to something here, please give it a like and a repost. Follow the artist. Give them a shoutout on social media. Check out some of their other tracks. Buy something from them and your support will help them to keep going. Doing any of this will help raise their profile. At the very least you might make their day. :)

Sharing is very, very important !!

Sharing is a massive help for independent artists. They don’t have big corporations and mainstream media saturating every channel with their product. Every independent share counts.

Giving something a ‘like’ is nice, but sharing exposes the artist to your followers. This means that anybody in your community can see and click on what you shared. They can potentially enjoy it as well. It enables somebody new to discover the artist and become their newest fan. You create the chance for that to happen.

If you happen to be on this playlist, please share, and give us a shoutout on your social media feeds - because if we spot it, it gives us another opportunity to repost you and big you up. Please listen to as many tracks by the other great bands as you can - at the very least the one before yours, yours, and the one after yours, to hear how you stack up - and... enjoy!

4 Star Commended Entry in the 2021 UK Songwriting Contest

For anyone, who has had to live in any form of isolation or restriction, like many of us in 2020/2021, it's mostly the small, simple, everyday things that you miss.

Waiting  for  the  world  to  get  back  upon  its  feet,    
Been  so  long  waiting  in  the  wings,  
Getting  hard  to  remember  how  things  really  were,   
How  I  miss  the  ordinary  things,  

Like,  casual  conversations  with  strangers  that  you  meet,   
Hanging  out  with  friends,  and  simply  walking  down  the  street,                  
How  I  miss  the  ordinary  things,  
   
Like,  sitting  at  the  coffee  shop,  watching  people  passing  by,   
Seeing  mothers  pushing  push-chairs  while  their  little  babies  cry,   
How  I  miss  the  ordinary  things,  

Waiting  for  the  world  to  get  back  upon  its  feet,   
It's been  so  long  waiting  in  the  wings,  
Getting  hard  to  remember  how  things  really  were,                  
How  I  miss  the  ordinary  things,  

Like,  taking  a  bus  ride,  three  stops  down  the  road,   
Meeting  friends  for  dinner,  and  hosting  them  at  home,   
How  I  miss  the  ordinary  things,  

Like,  shopping  unconcerned,  without  watching  my  back,   
Making  pointless  journeys  and  other  things  like  that,   
How  I  miss  the  ordinary  things,  

Waiting  for  the  world  to  get  back  upon  its  feet,   
I've spent so  long  waiting  in  the  wings,  
It's getting  hard  to  remember  how  things  really  were,       
How  I  miss  the  ordinary  things,  
How  I  miss  the  ordinary  things,

In The Sun (demo)

Everything For The Now

©️.Tiré de l'album : les bienfaits de la haine de la haine/ From the album: the benefits of hate hate .

Volée De Bois Vert - Barrage of criticism

If you've ever been on a mad night out that got out of hand, you'll get this song. It's a song about the blurred lines between hedonism, self-control and addiction, and it's all there in the track. 
It's about the cyclical nature of drink and drug abuse and the way time itself distorts when you approach the precipice of the void. We wrote the song in a way to mirror that feeling of trying to keep the night going when everybody else going home; that desperate search for small hour thrills, interspersed with peals of drum and bass, hazy taxi rides and streetside longing.

Just Matter EP

Jagged Line

The new single from Momo is a long-awaited new release from the forthcoming epic, The Shape of Things To Hum. And like all its stable-mates it explores a theme of science fiction – in this case, the galactic megalomaniac.

Out on 22.02.2022.

Featuring Patrick Hayes leading the horns and David Waller on drums and percussion.

ALL COMING BACK TO HAUNT ME

Wait a minute
Something’s wrong here
Just a little minute
Let it go
You’re coming over
A little strong, dear
Is there some reason 
That I should know

All coming back to haunt me
All coming back to show
All coming back to haunt me
All coming let it go

You say we met up
7 years or so
You said we had a, 
We had a good time
And now you rock up
At my family door
Telling me this is 
This child is mine

All coming back to haunt me
All coming back to show
All coming back to haunt me
All coming let it go

Spoken

"Wait a minute, wait a minute
Keep your voice down, keep your voice down
Are you....?
Are you saying?
Nah. Nah.
Are you, are you telling me that?
Nah.
Are you trying to say that?
What I think you're trying to say?
Nah, nah, nah
You think....?
You're, you're telling me that......?
I'm his daddy?"

All coming back to haunt me
All coming back to show
All coming back to haunt me
All coming let it go

So grateful to be channelling the song-writing vibe again.  :-) 

This song is the silver lining.  It was about one thing but now it's about something much more special - counting on yourself.

Let It Out

words and music K. Gennery
image not my own

I was dancing on the sky, clouds beneath my feet,
lightening at me heels, I wished you could have seen.
All the beauty in my mind, Shinning through these visionary eyes,
this was no ordinary, ordinary dream.

Grey had hued to blue, black it bleed to red,
a kaleidoscope of colour, deep inside my head.
And the only thing that was missing, you were not there dancing by my side,
this was no ordinary, ordinary dream.

You ooh, I'll be waiting for you ooh, I'll keep waiting waiting for
You ooh, when are you coming, are you coming on.....through.

It was a wonderful concoction , something to behold,
not a touch of contradiction the stories that we are told.
All the beauty in my mind came shinning through these visionary eyes,
this was no ordinary, ordinary,ordinary, no ordinary, ordinary, no ordinary dream.

You ooh, I'll be waiting for you ooh,
I'll keep waiting waiting for, you ooh,
I'm still waiting for you ooh,
when are you coming, are you coming on.....through.

I was dancing on the sky, clouds beneath my feet,
Lightening at me heels, I wished you could have seen.

no ordinary dream

It Will Pass And Disappear

Push It Down The River

Hoodoo Blue were formed in March 2018 by Missy Edwards and Jools Bath (who were previously in Somerset’s alternative rock band 'Missart' and Bristol based alt rockers 'Treacle Eater)'. Jools had been a founder member of West Country cajun folk rock band K-Passa and he currently plays alongside Reef bassist Jack Bessant in the 'The Cheddar Experiment Band’ (Ched Ex). This is where he recruited Oli Lee (Bass) and Pibby B (Drums) to join Missy (Vocals) and himself (Guitar) to form Hoodoo Blue. This has led to performances in venues and festivals across the UK over the last few years. In October 2018 they recorded their debut EP 'Break' in Orchard Studios Somerset, which was mastered by Matt Colton at Alchemy Studios in London. 
Hoodoo Blue then recorded and released their first album ‘Skin’ in March 2020 on CD and across all digital platforms. A self-produced album, recorded at Orchard Studios and again mastered by the award-winning  Matt Colton (this time at Metropolis Studios, London),  Skin is eleven tracks of dreamy trip-pop with an indie edge featuring Joe Atkinson (Neville Staples Band, the Rhynes) on keyboards alongside the core band members.
