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

STEKKLO – STEKKLO

STEKKLO

“STEKKLO”

STEKKLO is a Russian electronic band formed solely by Arkady Cherkashin. His production style was created under the influence of psychedelic-pop bands of new wave as well as of Soviet rock and synth-pop bands. STEKKLO music style can be characterized as a synth-popelectroclash with the elements of lo-fi and acoustic, although the musician doesn’t specify the genre of his project. This main idea is harmony of different kinds of sound and it’s styles in art and live on the whole.

Oscar Santis – Desde La Caja

[pn103]

Oscar Santis

“Desde La Caja”

“Óscar Santis, great artist of respect and renown, it has already been several years since I’ve known and recognized his trajectory, and it never ceases to be a true luxury and pleasure to hear his sounds. On this occasion he delivers sounds sufficiently well worked, so much so that they remind me of the late Akifumi Nakajima in the sense of achieving true soundscapes, with a density still greater than that to which one might become accustomed.

Each sound is a story and if you expand your mind, you will be able to capture to the maximum all the sounds that he manages to collect on these eight sound pieces. Glitches, sound strikes, all very well worked, note the treatment in each of the sounds, and the dedication to destroy each fragment, every millisecond, every detail delivers a different perception, its worth really disconnecting and hearing that which was dusted off from the box.”

“Óscar Santis, gran artista de respeto y renombre, hace varios años ya que conozco y reconozco su trayectoria, y no deja de ser un verdadero lujo y placer escuchar sus sonoridades. En esta ocasión entrega unos sonidos bastante bien trabajados, tanto así que me recuerdan al difunto Akifumi Nakajima en el sentido de lograr verdaderos paisajes sonoros, con una densidad aún mayor a la cual se pudiese estar acostumbrado.

Cada sonido es una historia y si expandes tu mente, lograrás captar al máximo todos los sonidos que logra recoger en estas ocho piezas sonoras. Glitches, golpes sonoros, todos muy bien trabajados, se nota el tratamiento en cada uno de los sonidos, y la dedicación a destrozar cada fragmento, cada mili-segundo, cada detalle entrega una percepción distinta, vale la pena realmente desconectarse y escuchar lo que desde la caja fue desempolvado.”

Abjective – Into the Labyrinth

[367]

Abjective

“Into the Labyrinth”

Abjective first arrived on Kahvi back in December as part of the VA compilation (Waves). Now they’re back with an album entitled ‘Into the Labyrinth’.

Heading towards the more glitchy end of the audio spectrum, the nine track album scratches on the edges of ambient (slightly reminiscient of Curious Inversions or the Orb), while including a touch of Autectre to give the tracks more of a distinct feel.

The album could be seen as a cleanse of the palette, taking the listener to more pleasant times, a summertime shower, or spring sunshine.

Tracks of choice: Summoning of the muse, Organium drone.

C. Reider / Jeph Jerman – Pop Variations

[pyr175]

C. Reider / Jeph Jerman

“Pop Variations”

Netlabel Pan y Rosas Discos has released a new collaborative album from C. Reider and Jeph Jerman. The album consists of a single 30 minute track comprised of edited vinyl pops and crackles. C. Reider wrote the following about the album:

in 2015, my friend jeph jerman sent me a very lovely lathe-cut record. one side has a twelve minute track of the pops and crackles that are typical of vinyl records. all of the sounds in pop variations were derived from that recording, using various techniques, like running the pops & clicks through a de-clicking algorithm, or slowing down the recording to the point where you can hear the needle bouncing at each pop.

FRVSNT – Lote

[pn102]

FRVSNT

“Lote”

“The duo FRVSNT navigates the convergence of at least three grand streams: contemporary music, electroacoustic in real time, and free improvisation.

Luciano Giambastiani makes use of clarinets in different registers to provide a sound world that is based on the broad spectrum of instrumental techniques associated with contemporary music, passing through materials defined by pitch, multiphonics, keyed percussion and the classic rough sonorities of the frullatos.

For his part, Rodrigo Castellanos contributes the electroacoustics through digital processing, where the aural richness is not always easy to explain, but certain techniques may be recognized, such as sampling and transposition of the sound captured by the computer, synthesis, delay and reverb among others, all in real time.

The general feeling is of symbiosis, an integration in terms of color that generally has a continuous evolution, sometimes accentuated by gestures of greater contrast. It is probable that Castellanos makes use of complex techniques such as monitoring of pitch, spectrums and dynamics or granular synthesis, and if the latter is true, it does not appear clearly or with the typical quality common in mixed music.

It is interesting to note that, according to the musicians, they never rehearse; rather they simply get together and play. Of course they do not start completely from scratch, as they know each other (eight years ago to be exact), they know what the sound space of their counterpart is, but from there they launch a dialogue that goes vibrating in a spontaneous and ‘effervescent’ way. They call it creation in situ, and this, as one may appreciate, they link not only to a determined physical space wherein the music awakens, but also to mental, emotional and conceptual spaces. Their previous communications are realized on a more generic level, where they discuss ideas of diverse nature, beyond the purely musical question.

Because this is a stereo recording, unfortunately it remains distinct from the multichannel component manipulated by Castellanos in the duo’s live performances, where the use of loudspeaker systems delivers an enveloping spatial element truer to their creative vision.

The album is a collection of miniatures, pieces that situate themselves in a minute and a half, two minutes, three and a fraction or at most five minutes and sixteen seconds. Juxtaposed with these pieces are micro-compositions of a few seconds (16, 18, or 24 seconds), of a concise and effective style, that exploit a sonority, rather a gesture that closes itself in but is able to connect with the preceding and the ensuing, with the general coloration awarded by the authors materials.

We hope this album is only the beginning of one or more subsequent contributions, either in stereo or why not in some multichannel format.”

Don’t Look At Me I Am Deformed – Ha Ha Ha Oh ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[UPL 066]

Don’t Look At Me I Am Deformed

“Ha Ha Ha Oh ¯_(ツ)_/¯”

Another delivery from the legend of troglodisco! Snippets of manicness inspired equally by 90s viva german dance music and teutonic ebm industrial – in attention deficit portions reminiscent of the Residents’ commercial album and similar tongue-in-cheek approach to the genre.

This is a vision of dance music revelling in its own simplistic approach and playful in its bending of genre’s boundaries and limitations. Like a 12 year old fed only by early dance music and armed in an array of 80s music samples and a book of “rules of disco music” that he dropped into a vat of acid for a few seconds it is concentrated on fun and simply enertaining to watch it stumble, spin and burst at the seams with forbidden energy.

various artists – happy in novi sad

[unfound88]

various artists

“happy in novi sad”

it’s time for a little bit of serbia! being long overdue, finally we present to you another chapter of unfoundsound’s “location series” — which features compilations of artists based in one city. first, we did buenos aires, then marseille, then melbourne, and then philadelphia. this time around, it’s novi sad (serbia’s second largest city). unfoundsound’s cofounder sean o’neal (a.k.a. someone else) continues to travel often and move around. after he himself has been living for a couple of years in novi sad, he realized it was time to put together a compilation of some of the finest electronic music artists in the city. very soon after he relocated to novi sad, sean quickly discovered that the city has an intelligent and thriving underground electronic music scene. so maybe it’s time to help put this city on the map. on happy in novi sad, you get a whopping 15 tracks ranging from minimal techno to deep tech-house to ambient to glitchy experimental, and there’s even a touch of loopy indie rock thrown in for good measure. the novi sad-based artists on this compilation include dako loop orchestra, fall apart (featuring the voice of radoje cupic), otto von disko, klaus pp, sloxxx, yoma, nebes, mthaza, daniel fritz, noise destruction (featuring dj z and dj fakir), daniel alexandar and mika technika. so, be happy…in novi sad!

Hassan K. – Hykayat, l’exil accidentel

Hassan K.

“Hykayat, l’exil accidentel”

« The look of which I know is the look he knows me »

This sentence is taken from Western Exile, thoughts and mystical story of the Persian philosopher Suhrawardi. It sums up the album. Hykayat in Iran, is a mystical story. Western exile is a journey to the celestial pole, to immaterial palaces.

This album is a tribute to the Persian thinkers and scientists of medieval Islam. It invites the listener to travel throughout eastern lights, axioms of creative imagination that influenced alchemists, mathematicians, astronomers and western philosophers. It was designed to stimulate your light guides to accompany your souls to the house of chants. It passes through time and space through hybridization of genres, rhythms and tones (metal, swing, electro, rock, philharmonic…).

It’s a light album: live performance is played on stage with lights DMX reacting to sounds. The album artwork is black and white, inviting the listener to focus on sound work, on composition and to develop a photism experience (feel color through another sense than vision). Live performances are still ecstatic, energetic, wobbly and increased by some unusual instruments like a guitar tuned with a wiimote, a MIDI flute, and sometimes a robot santoor.

Infecticide – Poil de Cœur

[D!HR-29]

Infecticide

“Poil de Cœur”

For Da ! Heard It Records’s 29th release, Infecticide returns to heckle with French chanson with psychoactive brilliance and fervor: “Poil de Coeur” arrives with the new year, like a musical greeting card under a dead Christmas tree. Inside, a journey into deep waters, through treats of neuroleptic wave, punk sweat, and the poetry of evenings that end at 3 pm in the morning… The dominical pleasures proposed by Michel Drucker will never have the same flavor.
As accomplished artists, the nasty three invest any and all means that get between their dirty hands to turn their offspring into a nocturnal weapon with a sadistic character, and the audience finds itself on its knees in front of such mastery in the art of bullshitting.
We are dealing with a precious trouple, in picturesque French scenery. Even if the Parisian trio keeps pounding pies in our faces, like with “Fais-le moi-le”, and even if the flat country that is not theirs suits them perfectly, to reduce it to the elegant EBM would ensure showers of rotten tomatoes, as evidenced by the abrasive “Pistache” which could have dubbed a block party at the time of the Boogie Down, or “Ton Tanga”, between electronic power and the exaltation of intimate undergarments. With “Prehistronic” or “Petit Tricheur”, we once again encounter what made the squadron trademark of the first album: a rock mix of synthetic music, or, as one sees fit, a rock synthesis of synesthesia.
One must also point out the panache behind the lyrics of Infecticide, such as in “Le monopole du coeur”, a phantasmagorical vision of the great dictators of our history; or in “Une petite motte de peur”, of which the hellish slomo dub accents of hell give us a friendly reminder of our condition as humans: “un chimpanzé en pull, un babouin maléfique” (“a chimpanzee in a sweater, a maleficient baboon”).
The heartening illustrations of Junie Briffaz add a final touch to these 13 firebrands. The physical object, touchable with the figures of one’s hand, offers 1 badge, 2 postcards, the lyrics, and a sticker.
