You Keep The Music Alive

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 2nd September 2024. 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/batch539

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves 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.

Don't Make It About Love

gut ✨

i wrote 'gut' to remind me to listen to that feeling in your body - the noise you get in the pit of your stomach when something just isn't right - when your thoughts won't stop racing and you just wanna get off the ride. 

described by my drummer as 'arlo parks meets bonobo'.

hope you guys enjoy. lots of love xx

Do You Haunt Me

A slightly melancholic, lighters-in-the-air meditation on friendship and loss.

"Devil in the Dress," The Metamodern's new single, unfolds beneath a city sky painted lavender by lights. It's a story of love turned ghost, where vintage soft-rock meets alternative R&B and a lyrical guitar melody guides you through a labyrinth of memory. Soaring choruses will have you dancing above the city, lost in the twilight of heartbreak and desire. Perfect for late-night drives and city streets whispering your secrets. Let "Devil in the Dress" be your escape.

Devil in the Dress

slow down

A dreamy triphop flamenco folk tune. 

Remains

I don't think of the misery, but of the beauty that still remains

One day I'll wade waist deep into the waves,
free myself and wash away all my pain.
I'll wash it all away
I'll wash it all away
I'll wash it all away.

Up here in my secret space
I'm invisible like tears
 in the rain

Float your raft (burnt offering) into the day.
Sun rise chill. Birds whispering it's all okay.
It's all okay.
 It's all okay.
Birds tell me it's okay.

Up here in my secret space
I'm invisible like tears 
in the rain.

Hopeful coin thrown willingly into the well.
Barefoot. Grass. The memories cast a spell
They cast a spell
 they cast a spell, 
They cast a spell on me.

Up here in my secret space (space)
I'm invisible like tears 
in the rain. (Rain, rain)

Waves retreat from under feet, sands puckering.
No escape. I'm swept away. The tide is turning, 
turning.
The tide is turning 
on me.

Awakening

This is the demo of our upcoming Contemporary R&B Track, Broken & Frozen.

Broken and Frozen

Dial in the drive, make the lights goes red and enjoy the journey. Inspired by a love of all things electric, eclectic and that sit outside of the distribution curve. When it comes to pitching tracks, it can be difficult to decide on genre. I love this…keep translating mental imagery, those swirling or distinct sounds that you wake up with and all is well. Hope you enjoy and if you can dance to this…even better. Retro Fitted Memory is the outcome of a cumulative residual set of memories of sound that have swirled around my head for decades. Was it that episode of Miami Vice or that album by Rock legends (…….) I don’t know. It’s the ‘tone’ that was and still is cemented in my mind that I was trying to convey rather than the notes. There’s a silvered gold colour for me. Hopefully, you can immerse a little and capture 3 minutes of well-being through sound. Thanks for stopping by 😎

Retro Fitted Memory

Don't worry, now, really don't
But I think that the Sun might be dying
The day was always coming, but 
I thought we had a bit more time
Do you see what I'm seeing? 
There's just not enough coming through
Not enough of those sweet Tau Neutrinos
The question right now is really "what do we do"?

Oh those Solar Neutrinos
They just go right through you
Those pesky little critters
Are giving us the jitters

Yeah, OK I see it, but let's not freak out just yet
Not until we're certain, not until we've double checked
Let's keep this under our hats
We don't want all the fighting and fussing
What if we've got it all wrong?
I don't want to cause panic for nothing

They're in a flap at Fermilab
There's concern at CERN
I knew a girl at the Hadron Collider
They wriggled and jiggled and shivered inside her

Mate...mate, look here, look at this, look
What if we've missed a trick?
What if there are different flavours, like crisps
Our basic palate just can't detect
I think we've gone off half-cocked, jumped the gun
I think we've got all excited for nowt
It's understandable, easily explained, but we've gone and freaked everyone out

People, as you were!
The neutrinos are all flowing fine
And the Sun isn't dying
Not now, not yet, not this time
You know the Sun isn't hot enough
To do what it does?
Quantum Tunnelling? Cosmic Cunning?
One day we'll run out of luck

Stick 'em in the Tokamak
Stick 'em in the Tokamak
Stick 'em in the Tokamak and make it so

Stick 'em in the Tokamak
Stick 'em in the Tokamak
Stick 'em in the Tokamak and watch 'em go!

Oh those Solar Neutrinos, they just go right through you
Hanging out at DUNE trying to fathom why
They're only ever passing by

Well back there it seemed like the end of the world
But I have to admit for a moment, in spite of
The obvious problems it presents for us all
I couldn't help feeling
Excited

Solar Neutrino Problem

Big Deal

ARPRAXIS is a vinyl DJ, Techno, House and U.K. breaks artist. The music is electronic and genre-fused. Music from the soul. Inspired by early Detroit artists like Carl Craig, Juan Atkins and Kevin Saunderson. The early 90s Hardcore, Jungle and DnB magic makes up a majority of my record collection topped with hard-hitting gabber, techno and tracks from Detroit that still give me goosebumps…Red Planet ‘Star Dancer’ and Casey Tucker for example are sublime. Check the links below for upcoming releases. Thanks for stopping by.
