about

Since 2010, many netlabels and artists publish their new free music releases on the clongclongmoo website. Free means that you don't have to pay anything or register to download music. However, you can usually pay something to support the artists. Please note the licenses under which the music is published. This is important to know what you are allowed to do with the music. Please visit the labels' homepages to get the free music. Most files are published under a creative commons licence. At netlabellist you will find an extensive list of websites that also offer (or have offered) free music. If you run a netlabel yourself or offer your music for free and want to draw attention to it, you are welcome to use the submission form. And remember that clongclongmoo is not there to do business, because “Business Is Not My Music.”

Dear friends and followers of clongclongmoo. It's great to have you here. As you may have noticed, the site has changed a bit. Some people wanted to be able to access the music with fewer clicks. That should work again now. Here's a quick note to everyone who uses relatively new platforms such as Mirlo, Faircamp, or Coop: feel free to use the submit form to draw attention to your new music. I'd especially appreciate hearing from anyone who runs a netlabel with free Creative Commons music. Thank you! Konrad from clongclongmoo

Updates!

Hello world!

May be you have already noticed: there are are some changes on the clongclongmoo website. To speed up the page the embedded players are now accesable after a click at the cover artwork. The second aspect of this decision is a tribute to the times when I bought Vinyl and CD`s at the record shop. I was always looking for interesting artworks that makes me curious about the music first. I hope you will accept this decision also why it makes the usability on mobile devices a bit more comfortable.

Also the the section of the netlabel links and the list of labels is now updated. After discovering that most of the old labels are not alive any more I decided not to delete the entries but marked them as “dead”. Almost for all the labels I found archive pages where you still find great music. Please stay in contact with clongclongmoo where you can find almost everyday new music that is published for free. To stay informed about updates please visit the website regularly or subscribe to the mastodon channel or the rss feed. I still don’t know how long I can suffer Twitter yet – it is a strange neighbourhood.

Thanks again to all of you listeners, musicians and label managers. I’m still amazed by the diversity and the quality of so many free releases that you share with us. Keep on!

Business is not my music!
