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 29 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/batch372

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 that have been previously submitted and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

"I kind wouldn't mind if that track went on forever" DJ Deb Grant, New Music Fix, BBC 6 Music

“It’s weird, it’s interesting, it’s challenging, maybe slightly discombobulating as well” 
Jamz Supernova - BBC 6 Music 
 
“More bite than a cage of hungry wildcats”
Mat Smith - Electronic Sound Magazine
 
“Like a moon-guided abstract fear; a ghostly voyage aboard a Kubrickian, Lovecraftian and Tarkovskyian space 
freighter this new vision scopes lunar caverns and the deep cosmos.”
Monolith Cocktail
​
‪“relentlessly obscure and prolific British music maker”.
9/10 DJ Mag
​
“Like a Loony Tunes Cage or Stockhausen, banished to a makeshift potting shed”.
Monolith Cocktail. 
​
“It sounds like Major Force mashed with Wagon Christ and Les Rita Mitsouko;
a sort of electro-operatic funk.”
Monolith Cocktail 
​
“Electronic music that nods in the direction of futuristic glitch school pointillism”.
Electronic Sound Magazine 
​
“so many disparate ideas into its brief, sixty-second existence, from muted house-style riffs, deep beats and a frantic jumble of melodies that sound like a stroll around a dimly-lit games arcade.” further dot 
 
“These are pieces that jerk around like they’re being attacked with an electronic music cattle prod, all quirky beats, skewed melodies and sounds that feel like they’re splintering and fragmenting inside your ear canal.”
