Like the play off between acoustic and drums

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 1st June: from around midday 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/batch368

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 will be invisible to everyone. 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.

ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 368

Again is a mellow but uplifting folk song about the power of hope, doubt and imagination when falling in love. The age old conflict of "he loves me, he loves me not”...

Music & Lyrics by Marit Røkeberg
Additional music by Anil Sebastian and Sam Vicary
Produced by Anil Sebastian and engineered, mixed and mastered by Cherif Hashizume
Recorded at Cafe Music Studios, London

Again

The first proper and full length tune from Flat MOOON

Vultures

It's never been easy for us my dear,
To understate a thing or two.
It's been a long road of hardship, of pain and tears,
But I'd walk it all again just for you.

A fool and his money are easily parted,
And a fool and his heart even more.
I've been climbing to reach you for so damn long,
But I never quite get off the floor.

I'll be a fool for you,
'Cos no-one loves me, the way you do.
I'll be a fool for you,
I'll make a sacrifice, until the day I die.

I'm all alone out here my dear,
There's no-one here to hear me shout.
I'd look for a place I could make my home,
But I'm in space and I'm freaking out.

Out of all the places that I could go,
And all the things that I could do;
When there are so many different infinite choices,
And the only thing I choose is you...

I'll be a fool for you,
'Cos no-one loves me, the way you do.
I'll be a fool for you,
I'll make a sacrifice until the day I die.
I'll be a fool for you,
'Cos no-one moves me, the way you do.
I'll be a fool for you,
Until the day I die...the day I die.

And I know that some things ain't meant to be,
But there's a feeling I get when you're close to me;
And this foolish old heart that's inside of me,
Just keeps me hanging on...

I'll be a fool for you,
'Cos no-one loves me, the way you do.
I'll be a fool for you,
I'll make a sacrifice until the day I die.
I'll be a fool for you,
'Cos no-one loves me, the way you do.
I'll be a fool for you,
I'll make a sacrifice until the day I die.

I'll be a fool.
I'll be a fool for you,
I'll make a sacrifice, until the day I die.
I'll be a fool.

CHRIS HOWARD - Fool For You

Firebreather

AWM - eMotion

This is a demo I wrote while in self-isolation to remind myself that when I move out and start freaking out about money problems and where my life is headed, I'll always have a feeling of safety to tap into.

Grandma's House (Demo)
