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 8th April: 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/batch524

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.

LYRICS

So what is original sin?
Is it not making God into a token?
For your using
A sanctified bruising

If Jesus came back to this land
He would only be crucified again
We were never told how you got your wings
And now you blame us 
For believing in the dream

And I don’t wanna have your babies
I don’t wanna make your money
You will never own my body
Here comes blood for the payment!
I never took your name willingly
Now everywhere I go 
You follow me

So I will bite the hand that feeds
Molars crush
Swallow, repeat
But
Still enjoy life’s great amenities
The wheels turn, bones split
And the marrow gleams

And I don’t wanna have your babies
I don’t wanna make your money
You will never own my body
Here comes blood for the payment!
I never took your name willingly
Now everywhere I go 
You follow me

Bird of prey we are your bastards
Watch your baby eat its brother
Bird of prey we are your bastards
But you taught us to hunt
So you should fly a little faster

And I don’t wanna have your babies
I don’t wanna make your money
You will never own my body
Here comes blood for the payment!
I never took your name willingly
Now everywhere I go 
You follow me

A cold winter sunday morning, opening the window of our home studio in the city of Omiya, Japan. We can see our balcony terrace, Japanese pine tree in the garden and the music room of the city’s high school just next to our place.

We don't know how long this tradition has been going on, the sounds of high school brass bands echo through the street everyday and accompany some moments of our daily life in this neighborhood for around 60 years at least. The sounds of brass celebrate our ordinary life and add some pinch of dramatic or cinematic senses in our daily life.

Omiya, Saitama City, (JP)  28/01/2024, 11:30 a.m.

alx frncs' second release; a gentle upbeat exploration into the inadequacies of depression and isolation during lock-down in the UK. It will be on all streaming platforms on 05.04.

Lyrics:

i don't wanna brush my hair 
mistakes were made im not quite there
i don’t wanna cook for one
address my choices one by one

I've got too much on my plate
I’ve got too much in my brain

you may think i'm lazy
when i fail to wash up dishes daily
hardly got a grasp on life
when death is constant on my mind 

I’ve got too much on my plate
I’ve got too much in my brain 
I’ve got too much in this state
I’ve got ten hundred and ninety-six days left of this mess.

i cant do anything right

Walled

Prior to its official release date of April 17th, Parasite has already had its first radio play last week on BBc Music Introducing. 
The song unfolds a sinister tale about your alter ego taking form of a Parasite. Sometimes submissive and at times destructive, wanting to take over, wanting to break you! Supporting the release of the single is a breathtaking music video on Youtube that compliments and captures the chaos and beauty of the song, revealing the alter egos through a creative artistic vision.

Written in Spring 2023, Sold on a Rhyme is a song about the idea that we grow up force-fed a dream (successful career, big house, family) that has become increasingly harder to achieve. 

Musically it's inspired by Stevie Wonder's Master Blaster, Walking on the Moon and London Calling, with Cable Street Collective's trademark African guitars and big bass lines.
