Description: Track 4 from Hyper Robin's 'Signal Interruption 31.10', releasing on Halloween. Named after a store I bought ginger nuts from once.

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 26 October: 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/batch383

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.

This still feels like it's missing something but I can't really figure out what. It's quite repetitive, which definitely doesn't aid that. 

Huge thanks to https://soundcloud.com/dripalixn for making the art for this song, his linktree is here: https://linktr.ee/alixn
Thanks to https://soundcloud.com/w3im for sending me a bunch of Crash cymbal samples after my whole sample library corrupted lol

Spoken wordy bit:
Lips white from frost,
And fingers numb from snow;
I could probably help,
But please wait outside.

Lips scorched dry,
By the midday sun;
I wish I could help,
But please wait outside.

The words you speak,
Infectious to my ears as vines to a tree;
There’s something gentle,
And something sweet,
In how on my own, I’m incomplete

It’s destructive 
And I’ve romanticised it
Curling myself around
Someone’s ankles if they allow me to

Tripping and depending
And fracturing with no
Intention of mending

Reforming
A word i never use
An action i won’t do

So when I’m peeled away 
From the side of someone who hosted me
I wither,
And I rot 
I spoil and I go off

I wait, in full stasis
Until another picks me up
I Affix myself, pin myself
Tether and adhere myself

Myself, a strange notion
Physically it’s true, 
But a parasite is such that its contents is derivative 
It’s null without a host so I maintain that’s indicative

That,
I’m in no way more than a hard exoskeleton

A glutton with a fondness for the foolish person who warms me and feeds me until I feel complete.

The main instrument is the Korg MS20. I used the Juno 60 for background chords.

Following support from Lauren Laverne, Gideon Coe, Don Letts, Chris Coco, Steve Lamacq, Cerys Matthews and others, Pilote, a.k.a Stuart Cullen returns after 2013’s, ‘The Slowdown’ album. ‘The Slowdown: Epilogue’ is an extended ten track EP featuring remixes from some of today's finest underground electronic  music producers (Kin;Aesthetic, The Unknown Stuntman, Route 24 and Scaramanga Silk), as well as bonus material from the recordings of the original album AND a brand new Pilote tune, exclusive to this release.

When Pilote turned in the original album, he also submitted a number of tracks as additional material. We were faced with quite a dilemma! Initially, we considered releasing a limited edition version of the album with a bonus disc. We also thought about making certain tracks available as digital exclusives. And, of course, we played with the idea of a Japanese version of the album with tracks only available for that territory… But, we decided against all of those things in favour of one version of ‘The Slowdown’, available across all formats and regions. This also meant we could look to do a special EP and add some remixes from our favourite artists too!

The result is ‘The Slowdown: Epilogue’ – an ideal companion piece and follow-up to the original album. The psychedelic-electro-bluegrass-pop explosion continues across tracks like ‘Reverend John’, ‘Shanty’ and ‘When The Romance Been Gone’. However, we are also treated to an exoticly flavoured surprise via ‘Quattro’ as well as a moment of stunning melodic beauty courtesy of ‘Long Knoll’. We also get a glimpse of the future direction for the artist via the new track, the fiddle-fantastic, ‘Catching Matilda’ (featuring Camilla Rose Yuill).

Four remixers were also carefully selected and their tracks take the work of Pilote into far reaching places. The Unknown Stuntman opens the EP with darkness shrouded in words of wisdom before transitioning into a beautiful place, on his remix of ‘The Sixth Street Ramble’. Brighton’s Kin;Aesthetic has been wowing us with his recent releases and continues this with his dub of ‘Before You Fall Down’ (feat. Dusty Stray) as it absorbs electronica, future-folk and deep hynotic ambience. The popular ‘Lesson 51’ is taken on an epic journey via Route 24’s clicky rhythms, spiralling synths and pulsing bassline. Scaramanga Silk closes the EP with an ambient remix of ‘You’re Only As Cold As You Feel’ that sounds like a combination of Four Tet with The KLF’s ‘Chill Out’.

‘The Slowdown: Epilogue’ is an essential extension to the current Pilote sound with twists, surprises, reinterpretations and a sneak peek at what is to follow…. 

Support for 'The Slowdown: Epilogue' has come from:

Nemone (BBC6 Music): 'The Sixth Street Ramble' (The Unknown Stuntman Remix)
Gideon Coe (BBC6 Music): 'You're Only As Cold As You Feel' (Scaramanga Silk's Remix From The Cryonic Chamber)
Tom Ravenscroft (BBC6 Music): 'Long Knoll'
