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

“Cosmic Hobos Cult”

Cosmic Hobos Cult is above all another page in the logbook of our improvised sound adventures. In a world under control, rigid, where everything obeys objectives, preaching the flexibility of vagrancy seems really saving. Not trying to please is obviously an act of resistance. From Kerouac to Kaufman, from Henry David Thoreau to Eden Ahbez, wandering leads to transcendence. Taming the silence. Free yourself from certainties. The spirituality of experience emerges through encounters, communion with wild nature, revelations of extreme states. The realization that you can just be alive. That it makes no sense to worry about appearing when the mind can break through like the celestial tramps.

These songs are too long for those who don’t want to like them, without values ​​for those who want to miss them. Yet those who will not be put off by the filth and take this road far from the information superhighways … are already walking by our side.

Recorded at the Cave Haven Sunday 6th September 2020.
A musical dive into the celestial tramps poetry…
Thanks to Kerouac and all the Beat Generation for the inspiration.
This is improvised music… so we do not remove anything, that mean this isn’t formated for mainstream listeners… this is freewave.
