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 17th February 2025: 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/batch559

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.

Full Inbox: Batch 559

Our moderators listened to every track we were sent this week and have picked their favourites for your listening pleasure this weekend:

+ MARCH 2025 PART II

Discovery List March 2025 Part 8

Its almost like you wanted this
Like you wished it to be true,
I seem to let the happy feelings
All slip through.

But the darkest ones are hanging,
Like an upside down balloon,
God give me a second chance
I think I need a second chance

Cause there aint a word
For how im feeling
Sorry for all your time im stealing
Better call it day
We could’ve been anything
We could be anything
Stop,
You’re life is drifting,
Everyone notices you acting different
Well I’ve nothing to say
We could’ve been anything
We could be anything

Its almost like you cant resist 
The trains going one way,
Tell me that you’re thinking of me
Tell me that you’re thinking of me

Cause there aint a word
For how im feeling
Sorry for all your time im stealing
Better call it day
We could’ve been anything
We could be anything
Stop,
You’re life is drifting,
Everyone notices you acting different
Hang on for today
We could’ve been anything
We could be anything

We Could've Been Anything

New song available everywhere ! It’s a mix of hip hop, rock, and pop, and was inspired by the phrase: “Give them bread and circuses and they will never revolt.” From that point, everything just flowed naturally. I’ve poured love and passion into this track.

What if birds aren't just birds? The new Baffo d'Oro single takes an ironic and critical look at fake news and conspiracy theories, with a catchy late summer guitar riff and noisy guitars in the chorus.

You've got me on Tenterhooks 🪥🪥🪥

“This is a song about the violence of waiting for someone. It’s about the feeling you get after you send ‘that message’. Tenterhooks are the L-shaped hooks from which woollen cloth once hung in the mills of Northern England. Like that fabric, you are suspended. Your life and self-worth in the balance. Waiting for that person to reply....”

Have you ever wondered how would reggae sound like through a looking glass? Probably like this.

All Mad Here are releasing Through the Looking-Glass EP as a contemporary take on reggae music inspired by black music and culture.

It’s not our first piece of work, but it feels like that. Since Ella joined us, the band gained power, lyrics got sharper and music turned into shapes we only suspect they exist.

The songs were written within a few rehearsals after Ella met the latest incarnation of All Mad Here. Or after the new incarnation of All Mad Here met Ella. It works both ways.

Some songs took their shape from older tracks but most came out of the blue. They came out of the moment when the band found it's voice again. EP includes a cover version of Barrington Levy's classic too, Ella's favourite Black Roses.

Through the Looking-Glass EP was recorded in two days in Golden Hive Studios in Prague.
Released November 24, 2024

Produced by Ondřej Horák
Mixed & mastered by Amak Golden

All Mad Here are Ella (vocals), Ondrej (guitar, backing vocals), Honza (keyboards, backing vocals), Martin (bass) and Karel (drums and pads);

Studio guest Spok (synths, echoes, drum machine, music alchemy)

" ...the end product never ceases to enchant and surprise – which is all you can ask, really. It is simultaneously gentle and powerful."
'New Band Of The Week' - THE GUARDIAN

"Although it's still only early days in the band's fledgling career, their potential is enormous."
DROWNED IN SOUND

"‘Foresteering’ is already a firm contender for single of the year, it is a piece of pop genius."
A MUSICAL PRIORITY

"Welsh psych rockers appeared at 2pm - and blew away all expectations."
BBC Introducing in West Yorkshire, Leeds Festival

"'PartDepart', a song of hypnotic layers, beautiful sounds and a real sense of space that is sadly lacking in so much modern music."
LISTEN WITH MONGER

"Welsh troupe try out acid-damaged psych on their lo-fi debut"
UNCUT Magazine, April 2017

"Three musicians, one static caravan and a 16-track portastudio. Mix together in the Snowdonian hills and stand back"
SHINDIG! Magazine, Issue 67

"They embrace influences from Super Fury Animals, Django Django and the Beach Boys to name but a few. In doing so, they create an engrossing swirling infusion of psychedelic rock, blues and mildly dancy grooves. Title track ‘PartDepart’, with its bubbling hypnotic layers, beautiful sounds, synth loops, enticing guitar riffs and seductive rhythmic groove, is essentially their raison d’etre"
BARRYGRUFF Music Blog

 "Do yourself a favour and find a peaceful spot to listen and discover this new band. It won’t be long until the Eryri landscape unravels before you."
