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

FROM THE AUTHOR:

This archive is a collection of soundtracks from videos which I produced during the first decades of the 21st Century. Taped Rugs has never previously released any of these recordings in audio-only format (*). Given the right person in the right frame of mind, each of these recordings should be able to inspire mental imagery comparable or superior to the videos for which they were produced. I intentionally did not include internet links to the specific videos which accompany the recordings in this compilation. However, anyone interested in seeking out those videos can find them by carefully searching through the collection at the link below:

This archive was compiled in response to a request for Taped Rugs Productions to participate in “Netlabel Day,” July 14, 2023. Please visit the link below for more information about Netlabel Day:

* NOTE: “Exchanging Consciousnesses” appeared in audio-only format on “Glasklinge Sampler 04,” released by Eisenlager/midnightradio in 2013.

represents the algorithm.

The result of the collaboration between the two is
music.

“20th Anniversary Album”

Welcome to the 20th anniversary compilation of Upitup Records, a label that has been dedicated to promoting experimental music and providing a platform for electronic artists from all over the world for two decades. To celebrate this milestone, Upitup Records is releasing a 20-year compilation featuring entirely new and unreleased tracks, from our long-time friends Drone, JFrank, Satori, The Courier, Global Goon and Büromaschinen to name a few. This compilation is a celebration of the label’s history and its commitment to pushing the boundaries of free music.

From ambient soundscapes to glitchy beats, from noise experiments to avant-garde electro, this collection showcases the diversity and creativity that has made Upitup Records such an important part of the netlabel and free music scene.

In addition to the compilation album, we are also releasing Upitup Forever – a mobile app for both Android and iOS. The app was designed and built for our fans to listen to their favorite tracks on the go. It also features exclusive content such as hand-selected playlists as well as a genre-based shuffle mode to discover the depth of our 20 year long running catalogue.

We would like to thank all of the artists who have contributed to this compilation, as well as all of the listeners who have supported Upitup Records over the years. Here’s to another 20 years of boundary-pushing music!

Jazzaria

“Symphonic Kernel”

Part of creating something is enjoying partial composition – knowing that what you’re making is incomplete and mutable, and that (whether or not it is completed) it shares that with every other idea and attempt that has ever been or will be. A full symphonic experience is a non-trivial affair – but a kernel can imply, and belie its partiality.

Featuring orchestral strings, flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, timpani, snare and bass drum, percussion, trombone, and french horns.

MOTHER BANK – Tanggung Renteng

MOTHER BANK – Tanggung Renteng
[YESNO 105]

MOTHER BANK

“Tanggung Renteng”

Mother Bank adalah bank eskperimental berbentuk bank keliling (bank emok) di Jatiwangi-Majalengka yang diinisiasi oleh kelompok riset artistik Badan Kajian Pertanahan. Lahir sebagai bagian dari gelombang #aktivismedarurat pada masa pandemi covid 19, Bank yang didirikan sejak awal 2021 ini difungsikan sebagai ekosistem pengaman ekonomi terdekat dan termudah bagi warga Kampung Wates yang sebagian besar adalah buruh harian dan saat itu kehilangan pekerjaan. Membedakan diri dengan bank keliling pada umumnya yang mengenakan bunga cukup tinggi, bank ini dikelola secara bersama-sama dengan bunga pinjaman nol %. Secara organik, Bank ini menjadi wadah bagi Ibu-ibu di Kampung untuk belajar, berbagi, tumbuh, mencipta, bergerak, secara bersama-sama.

Salah satu aktivitas keluaran dari Mother Bank adalah sebuah kelompok musik di mana para nasabah adalah personilnya. Menggunakan musik keramik yang dikenalkan oleh Jatiwangi art Factory— yang saat ini sudah menjadi musik tradisi di Jatiwangi, kelompok musik ini menyampaikan pengalaman para nasabah sebagai perempuan yang hidup di tengah perubahan lansekap wilayah Jatiwangi menuju wilayah industri manufaktur terbesar di Pulau Jawa. Sebagai kelompok, Bank ini juga turut mengadvokasi dirinya di tengah persoalan konflik tanah yang dihadapi warga Kampung Wates dan tujuh desa lainnya dengan TNI AU, sejak Indonesia memproklamirkan kemerdekaannya.

Dengan mengusung judul dan semangat ‘Tanggung Renteng’ yang berarti ditanggung secara bersama, album ini membagikan pengalaman para perempuan sebagai nasabah bank keliling yang hidup bertahan dengan ‘gali lubang tutup lubang’, menyaksikan bagaimana lahan persawahan secara perlahan berubah menjadi pabrik-pabrik, antusiasme pemuda pemudi Jatiwangi yang berbondong-bondong menjadi buruh, ritual gajian para buruh membeli rocket chicken, upaya para perempuan memanfaatkan lahan dengan menanam, hingga proses kolaborasi anggota Mother Bank dengan para perempuan pengrajin keramik dari satu desa di Borobudur, Magelang.
