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

“Take a Sound. Do Something to It. Do Something Else to It.”

This is the second release from double bassist Daniel Barbiero and electronic sound artist Steve Hilmy. An outgrowth of their work with the Nancy Havlik Dance Performance Group, their collaboration explores the creative applications of new technologies to conventional and extended performance techniques for the double bass.

2. A Multiplication of Voices (for Steve Hilmy)
3. Coda: Watching the Watchers

“Take a Sound. Do Something to It. Do Something Else to It.” and “Coda: Watching the Watchers” are two live improvisations for amplified double bass and real-time electronic processing recorded at An die Musik in Baltimore on 14 June 2012 and at Dance Exchange in Takoma Park, Maryland on 21 January 2012. “A Multiplication of Voices (for Steve Hilmy)” is an improvisation for solo double bass processed post-performance with the Granulab synthesizer program in April 2013.

Steve Hilmy: electronics (on “Take a Sound. Do Something to It. Do Something Else to It” and “Coda: Watching the Watchers.”)

Tetarise – Orange Mood

338

Tetarise

“Orange Mood”

The following EP appeared in my mailbox recently, and so impressed with the tracks that the VA for 2013 has now been moved to a later release date. Tetarise is the artist, you may be familiar with previous releases on netlabels from him. Every release is extreme high quality with some of the finest sounds I’ve heard from a long time.

Orange Mood is a six track EP of such epic quality, I think this will be on your permanent playlist for years to come. Amazing arpeggios mixed in with epic pads and basses create a feel good and certainly mindblowing sound we’ve not heard at Kahvi for quite some time (I think the last EP to do this was Plokcity by Berestez which everybody was taken with).

Track of choice for this new Tetarise fan is most definately Aquamarine, which is just.. fantastic. Enjoy this release and see you next month!

Telegraphy – Grey Matter

iono-15

Telegraphy

“Grey Matter”

The mysterious nature of some matter has captivated inquiring minds as long as there has been instruments of micro foresight. Elusive substances make their appearance only to offer conjecture on a theological context, where by attuned idealist can perhaps make a assumption that they exist at all.

Characterized has being here nor there, the escape artist of the material world evades understanding and discovery. Iono-15 “Grey Matter” by Telegraphy, though mysterious, it can not be understood in the traditional sense. Serving as a barrier of acoustic knowledge, sounds are ether here nor there, and at the same instance (there nor here).

Rhythmic guesses of deeply fluctuating vibes coming and going is a scientific hypothesis of how Telegraphy’s “Grey Matter” materializes in this reality.

Cherubim – The Joyful Shrieks of the Cherubim!

zero152

Cherubim

“The Joyful Shrieks of the Cherubim!”

Cherubim makes noises, drones, pulses and melodies with guitars, trombones, trinkets and computers, sampling and swirling it all into an unearthly sound. After a few years of playing together in the 12,000 Trees collective, guitarist Yuko Pepe and laptop/trombonist Brett Sroka splintered off as a duo, with a strange, yet overlapping aesthetic.

Yuko Pepe is an experimental/noise/improvisational musician based in Brooklyn, NY, born in Tokyo. She started playing the guitar in 2001 at university in Tokyo, where she also received her nick name, Pepe. Currently, Yuko plays with 12000 Trees, Cherubim, Helioscope and has performed solo in NYC, Berlin and Tokyo.

Brett Sroka is a trombonist, computer musician and composer for film, dance, installations and his own ensembles. He has performed at BAMcafe, the Sonic Circuits Festival, the Guggenheim Museum and the Teatro Fondamenta Nueve in Venice, Italy. His minimal, electro-acoustic jazz trio Ergo released it’s third recording, “If Not Inertia”, on Cuneiform Records in 2012.

Matt Rogalsky – Eliane

zero153

Matt Rogalsky

“Eliane”

This music did not really begin as an hommage to Eliane Radigue, but I did come to think of it in relation to her work with slowly changing timbres, which I love, and I ended up calling it by her name. My recordings are drone textures made up of many oscillators continuously detuned according to changing ambient light levels. A single photocell placed outside brings into play the movement of isolated clouds passing across a clear blue sky. Eliane was created using the SuperCollider programming language with homemade sensor hardware, and recorded in real time to analog tape.
