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.”

update, February 1st, 2026

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

Julien Palomo + Fabien Robbe – Miniatures

[mhrk410]

Julien Palomo + Fabien Robbe

“Miniatures”

Released September 21, 2024 as free (cc) download and beautiful limited edition digipak CD.

“This, our second album, is a collection of synthesized short pieces.

Whether you deem them abstractions due to their strange harmonic contents, or figurative of strange places, is up to you. The key word here is “atmosphere”. They convey no message, they were not created with any intent.

In saying what they’re not, we’re saying they are pure imagination at play. They deal with mental images and perceptions, before language creates order – and falsehoods – out of the plasma of free association.

During their making we never discussed them, bar a few technical points ; never defined them, never worded anything. We never ever mentioned we were actually “doing” them, and really discovered them afterwards.

Of course, we will never succeed in saying nothing. We’re subjects. And the very fact we have to write something about it is the heart of the paradox. But at least we can try. We all deserve a good vacation from meaning. There are other forces at play, like sound.”
