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, 28.1.2026

Hello, I have made a few changes to the site. Unfortunately, I am not quite finished yet, but it should continue without interruption. I hope you find the changes useful. Stay tuned. Konrad

Since 2010 here Konrad from clongclonmoo.org occasionally recommends his favorite free net releases.

[CVU008]

88756

“Self EP”

For the release of our first Queensland-based artist, we are stoked for CVU008 to have come from a connoisseur of all things electronic, and burgeoning producer, dj, and programmer: 88756.

88756’s multidisciplinary, focused approach to music and art has seen a torrent of releases since 2019, almost always accompanied by imagery generated through an automated video generator that was written in python. Concurrently, this approach has honed a certain sonic precision that is ever present in these tracks; everything from oldschool electro to modern polyrhythmic madness.

On remix duties – Olympic Pool Maintenance League, another one to watch in Brisbane – takes us through a mind-altering remix of Self, one that churns and wavers through a broken soundscape.

As always CVU008 is free to download straight from Soundcloud. All Australian music, all the time. We’ll also have some videos generated by 88756 and their python script coming soon.

4T Thieves – Fame Is An Addiction
[mhrk280]

4T Thieves

“Fame Is An Addiction”

“Fame is an Addiction” sounds like a cassette you found while walking on the beach, half burried in the sand, case slightly warped by the heat of the sun, little pebbles and bits of seashells embedded inside, tape loose and almost melted. You rescue it, clean it up, spool it in, and when you play it you discover that the noise of the sea waves somehow got imprinted onto it and melded with the music.

Every tune is deep within its own comfortable bed of noise, each sound treading through thick viscous aural quicksand, beats pop in from behind lush canopies of strings and pads, flocks of melodies swirl above, clouds of frequencies cast their shadows on top of everything else and the place becomes that bit cooler. Every tune does paint a scenery indeed, each is really alike a place you inhabit for a few minutes. They all feel tangible and expansive, they welcome roaming and exploration, so much is happening there, so much to see/hear/feel, so much to discover each time you return.

It all sounds old and fresh, damaged yet fully contained, at the verge of collapse yet tightly controlled. There is certainly a story being told in this music, but it’s a different story for each different listener. It’s the kind of music that burrows in and pulls out of you as much as it brings and it’s that mix of the internal and the external, right here and right now, that makes it an entirely personal experience.

Los compositores Fernando Curiel, Eduardo Wilde, Damián Ratto y Néstor Ciravolo son, a día de hoy, los integrantes de la asociación musical argentina sin ánimo de lucro Ars Contemporanea, que promueve y difunde obras de autores locales y del exterior.

En nuestra primera aproximación a esta asociación desde el sello Fortín Artesonoro, hemos querido dar muestra de su faceta acústica instrumental, reuniendo cuatro obras, una por cada uno de los miembros. Damos lugar, de este modo también, a la primera referencia con obras exclusivamente acústicas en nuestro sello. Una selección de obras en las que intervienen la flauta travesera solista, un trío para oboe, clarinete y piano, el violonchelo solista, y un cuarteto de viento madera (flauta travesera, oboe, clarinete y fagot) y que tiene una muy bella y elegante expresividad tímbrica e interpretativa, ofreciendo un repertorio especialmente emocionante y cuidado, y que tiene también el atractivo de una concepción en la que la energía de cada gesto de los intérpretes es correlativa a una energía sonora musical a través del instrumento, sin otros ingredientes.

“MFPWNWFOI”

MUSIC FOR PEOPLE WITH NO WORK, FAMILY OR INTERNET

“A collection of pieces from the last 10 years gathered around the idea of listening as a state of trance. Listening without distraction, without measuring time, without hurry. Clearing the mind, a bit of melancholy, an endless loop, a hovering thought, urban meditation somewhere in the suburbs. Instead of TV, instead of a smartphone: “I have to do something, I have to be somewhere”. Slow listening, room for feelings.”

[phokes143]

Plutonien

“VORSTELLUNG ERARBEITEN”

Brain factory in Metropolis.
Lofi plough and extended lunch break.
The supervisor bends his head, and bangs.

From Dresden’s electronica underground comes Plutonien and ploughs our brain walls with experimental-beat-heavy lofi art, most of which was produced using Sunvox, which is of course great. Head banging is allowed, even dancing is possible with some of the tunes. The artist of the project Plutonien has a liking for all arts, art history, but also for more or less strange human creations of all kinds. The openness and at the same time strictness associated with this is easy to hear in the tunes. The sounds are not charming at all, more like sitting in the middle of a mechanical clockwork, listening to and watching its production. The big machine is rolling. And it is not soothing but, to put it mildly, revealing.

This is the first time we have re-released a musical work that was already published under Creative Commons before. With a licence that is given and somewhat different from our standard licence.
Basically, a re-release of CC music is possible at any time. In the context of attention islands in media oceans, this somehow also makes additional sense.
It also makes sense from a long-term perspective, because digital releases are much more ephemeral than, for example, records and CDs that are still traded.
>From the time of the beginnings of music publication on the net, almost none of the hundreds of labels are active or accessible any more.
Archive.org is of course a wonderful implementation, especially thanks to Simon von Monotonik, who recognised the potential early on and built the bridge between the netlabels and archive.org.

The contact to Plutonien was established via Rajko, thanks.

Dj Malaït

“Everything’s Right / Wrong”

Dj Malaït is a Russian producer based in Barcelona. Better known as ZebaKnizel for his work in the offline meeting point collective, where he releases most of his tracks.

He has performed (and still does) alongside several bands of different genres, but his interest in electronic music grew a lot in the last two years and currently he’s fascinated with experimenting and mixing different patterns and genres. His style is influenced by IDM artists, poly rhythms, and wandering harmonies.

This particular release was created with the intention of mixing all sorts of latin percussion vibes, adding some more electronic elements, and some rhythm complications that might make the listener count each beat before dancing confidently.

Kanz – Remind Me Tomorrow

Kanz – Remind Me Tomorrow
[mhrk272]

Kanz

“Remind Me Tomorrow”

Kanz (real name Kaloyan Gavrilov) is a techno and experimental electronic music act hailing straight from Lyulin, Sofia, Bulgaria. He has notable releases and appearances on labels such as KOMPONENTI, Audio Avantgarde, WTF is SWAG and Vivus Records. He is also known for his collaboration work with Cyberian (on Amek and WTF is SWAG) as well as being a part of the now cult duo 80s Clash (with Dickie Slavkov) and the very promising project Lesnik (with SuB).

“Remind Me Tomorrow” is not one’s usual album and the tracks on it are not one’s usual album tracks. The release formed and (Kaloyan insists) should be viewed as a collection of always in progress works, created to be used as tools for Kanz live performances. Yet, some of these “tools” are already hit tracks, starting with the Kanz debut on Mahorka on the compilation album “Eastern Depths Vol.3” – the breath-taking track “Mindless” in 2016. “Restless” followed on “Music for elevators vol.5” in 2017 and in 2020 “Conditions” came out on the epic “Eastern Depths IV”. Yet, “Remind Me Tomorrow” works fantasticly good as an album.

Pátí na světě

“Jupiter Carousel”

released June 1, 2021

This album about obscuration through aesthetics is based on a sentence that claims that people cannot use beauty to get to “the bottom part of the Earth”.

Originally a quartet, now a trio, Pátí na světě delve into the lands of sirup-covered strings sections.
They prune their way through these sticky thickets to more and more choruses that get so easily lost by the campfire.
Long before the pandemic, the lyrics to “Gulliver” included the term “deniers”, half-forgotten at the time, hackneyed and overused today.

The album’s message is the following: The world as we know it is breathtaking, even without beauty!

dvidevat x Nulla

“068​/​078​-​1”

“Inspiration found between four walls: a new and exciting package of electronic music on a split digital release of two young music producers”

dvidevat and Nulla are among the youngest Ljubljana-based electronic producers. Electronic music culture is what drives them: they both started as DJs, researching different types of electronic and non-electronic music and DJing in many clubs in Ljubljana, and both evolved their listening skills as electronic music producers through institutional and mostly non-institutional education. The split digital release 068/078-1 presents their first longer music work and unveils their musical influences, which inspire them again and again and give them the drive to re-enter the four walls of their studios and their favourite clubs.

The split digital release seems to be a one-piece album, but attentive listeners will find a clear line between the two prominent electronic artists. The joint release may paint their music similar, but it also shows their differences. Where dvidevat tends to develop the sound of the Detroit old-school electro and short but memorable melodies, Nulla progresses with darker UK experimental electro with a touch of breaks, IDM and bleep. It’s clear that they… more

Radka Fiedlerová – voice* (2, 3, 5)

The original tracks (guitars, drums, voice of Štěpán Pečírka, cyclophone, Romo T57 and steel spring) were recorded live during rehearsals (1-5) and concert (6, 7) of Noční pták in Albeř, August 2019. Instruments marked * and Radka Fiedlerová’s voice were added in 2021.
nocniptak.cz (in Czech and English)

Noční pták (Nightbird) was formed ten years ago as a project of Luboš Fidler and Zdeněk Konopásek. Luboš Fidler is one of the most important and uncompromising performers of the Czech alternative scene. As a bass/acoustic guitar player, he was founding member of alternative rock groups of 1970s and 80s, such as Stehlík or Švehlík, he played with MCH Band, Kilhets etc. In early 1980s he was involved in the minimalist-experimental trio Janota-Fidler-Richter (together with Oldřich Janota and Pavel Richter). Zdeněk Konopásek was drummer of the early and late 1980s band Dvouletá fáma. He also played, e.g., in the Dr. Konopný Quartet (together with Joe Karafiát, Jan Štolba and Radomil Uhlíř) and also collaborated with Oldřich Janota. Currently he is involved in theatrical-musical performances of Divadlo Vizita and, as a second drummer, in the band Fish, Flesh, Field & Henry $. Occasionally, he plays solo on his drum set. The two are joined, in recent years, by a “permanent guest” Štěpán Pečírka (Vyšší popular, Kolotoč theater, Richter band).

The album “I am healthy and things are going well” is based on live recordings from rehearsals and home concert that took place in summer 2019. These recordings were revisited and reworked into original compositions by Luboš Fidler in early 2021.
Fidler explains the title of the album as follows: The phrase “I am healthy and things are going well” (or: I am healthy and fine) was pre-printed in all languages of Austrian-Hungarian monarchy on postcards sent by soldiers from the trenches of the First World War. This album can be understood as a flare fired from the trenches in which we have been for more than a year in 2020-21.

Coletivo NSLO

“Sururus Perdidos”

Sururus Perdidos presents instrumental compositions by Heitor Oliveira, performed by Dario Rodrigues Silva (piano), Gina Arantxa Arbeláez (flute), Renan Simões and Sabrina Souza (guitars). With significant independent artistic and academic trajectories, the musicians join forces for a collaborative endeavour that result in a series of phonographic releases, of which Sururus Perdidos is the second.

Sururus Perdidos presents three pieces from the authorial repertoire of the Collective NSLO. The duet Novos sururus and quiprocós de um convescote chumbrega contain fragmented narratives: a game that flutist and pianist build from collections of more or less obsolete materials. The duet Tudo é perdido quando o desejo fica repartido, for a couple of guitarists, sonically stages the drama of ambition and its consequences.

Coletivo NSLO brings together a group of musical creators and performers who reside in different regions of Brazil. The letters of the acronym mean north, south, east and west and represent the diversity of where the musicians come from: Palmas (Tocantins), Caçapava (São Paulo), Cali (Colombia) and Mossoró (Rio Grande do Norte).

The genesis of the group took place at the post-graduate program in Music at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, where all the musicians did or are doing their doctorates. The group came together due to personal and artistic affinities that culminated in the sponsorship by Rumos Itaú Cultural of a two-year project to create a new repertoire. To do this the group carry out activities open to the public, in recitals, workshops, round tables, among others, as well as experimentation, rehearsal and production within the collective. The artistic goal was the gradual creation of an original repertoire based on interaction, expressive potential and experiences shared by musicians.

Through a project selected by the Rumos Itaú Cultural 2017-2018 program, between November 2018 and February 2020 Coletivo NSLO performed at various locations in Brazil and Colombia. The repertoire of the group was built and refined during these trips. In 2020, the sponsorship of Banco da Amazônia made phonographic and audiovisual production viable

Chango Dada

“Trimate”

Ecléctica es la entrega de Chango Dadá para Pueblo Nuevo. Dividido en tres tracks, el álbum “Trimate” navega entre aspectos afables y otros misteriosos o incluso ásperos en cierta medida. El track de apertura de carácter textural, hila los sonidos y gestos de manera cinemática, transitando entre texturas electroacústicas y motivos instrumentales de piano y clarinete entre otros. En cambio, en la segunda pista, aparecen materiales cercanos a una ‘indietronica’, donde el lenguaje se sustenta en lo tonal y teclados melódicos. El track final vuelve a los ritmos constantes a través de formas y colores cercanos a un IDM donde se superponen voces y colores a veces desde sonidos connotativos y otras desde texturas más abstractas: aquí las grabaciones de campo cumplen un rol timbrístico y a la vez de signo, especialmente las voces y el contenido semántico presentado.

Eclectic is the delivery of Chango Dadá for Pueblo Nuevo. Divided into three tracks, the album “Trimate” navigates between affable aspects and other mysterious or even rough to some extent.The opening track,with a textural nature, threads the sounds and gestures in a cinematic way, moving between electroacoustic textures and instrumental motifs of piano and clarinet among others.On the other hand, on the second track, there are materials close to an ‘indietronica’, where the language is based on the tonal and melodic keyboards. The final track returns to constant rhythms through shapes and colours close to an IDM where voices and colors are superimposed, sometimes from connotative sounds and others from more abstract textures: here the field recordings play a timbristic and sign role, especially the voices and the semantic content presented.

“drop shadow on airport runway”

This soundwork’s starting point is in the heatwave evenings of June 2018, in the south of France, when the heat made sleep impossible.

It is constructed like a soundtrack for a video movie where a narrative process is directly generated by airport public cameras. Timbres, intensities, pitches and rhythms « drop shadow on airport runway » and offer a perceptual immersion, guided by microphones, open to our habits and our dreams.

This musical piece was originally presented during the JeffersonParkExp 2020. You can see the live performance here: Jefferson Park EXP November 15, 2020. Set 2. Nicolas Tourney.

Paco Maddalena – Panorami Verticali

Paco Maddalena – Panorami Verticali
[Lav87]

Paco Maddalena

“Panorami Verticali”

Five tracks that involve a different vision, a new way of relating to the world around us, based on the essence of everyday environments soundscaping.
Hence the title of the ep, Panorami Verticali, intended as a new interaction with the context, no longer ordinary but translated into a different dimension, perpendicular in this case, like the imaginary line that from the ground, passing through legs, reaches the head : the noises are rhythmically and harmonically autonomous, self-celebrating, free and dancing in the sound space and from the earth they rise to be recoded by the mind of the listener.
Disconnected from the normal cultural classification, sounds acquire an independent meaning, result of a different elaboration in each one, making the passive routine become presence and the ego, the individual, the listener, more than ever collective archetype, one with the sound context.
The sea (“Osservazione partecipata”), cars on the street, a train station, but also the sound of a gate and the empty garden of a school (“Troppe trame”), the interiors of a steel factory (“Basta che poi ci ricordiamo dove”), are the result of elaborate, dilated and intertwined field recording sessions, played with an ‘organic’ synth (Lyra 8, Soma), drones, tape loops and modified keyboards sequences.

Alessio Degani – CityScape: Brixia

Alessio Degani – CityScape: Brixia
[GFR, 136]

Alessio Degani

“CityScape: Brixia”

Cityscape – Brixia is an auditory tale whose subject is the city where I currently live: Brescia (Brixia is the ancient name), in northern Italy.
The recordings have been taken approximately between 2016 and 2018. The fields are different facets of the same city: different seasons, different weather, different environments. Crowded highways with cars and busses opposed to calm meadows with crickets in the night.
The result is an continuously changing sound scape that guides the listener through an auditory tour. The journey starts on a warm, cozy morning and continues through a refreshing rain that suddenly becomes a storm. As the day approaches an end, the traffic noise slowly fades away giving way to a familiar atmosphere. It’s time to relax. In the evening, a quiet place to spend some time. Then comes the night, and a soft blanket of snow covers everything in silence.

Roberto Massoni – NeoMTRX5

Roberto Massoni – NeoMTRX5
[Hueco Negro 06]

Roberto Massoni

“NeoMTRX5”

El retorno a los recuerdos imperfectos de un pasado que nacen en la linea de cuerdas del tema “crees que soy sexy?” de Rod Stewart caminando po las galerias de Aristobulo del Valle, que siguen en el secuenciador de Oxigene de Jean M Jarre ambientando documentales de la ballena franca austral en el programa “la aventura del hombre”, continuan en la transmisicón de Bladerunner en la televisión y la escena de Harrison Ford asomandose al balcón en la noche combinado con “bladerunner blues” de Vangelis, que se asocian al mejor momento de las series que son los títulos de apertura como la del Auto Fantástico (Knite Rider) o “Lobo del aire” (Airwolf) plagadas de secuenciadores y primitivos sintetizadores digitales hasta la llegada de Jan Hammer ambientando historias dramáticas en Miami los jueves por la noche en canal 9.
Por otra parte NeoMTRX5 es una invitación al futuro a partir de la posible recolección de datos biométricos a tiempo real que permiten calcular y entregar resultados para resolver dilemas continuos ante situaciones conflictivas a las que se expone el ser humano.
NeoMTRX5 es un algoritmo que se diseña y se reconstruye por medio de otros algoritmos donde logra su independencia y no necesita de la intervención humana. Su frase de cabecera debajo del logo de la empresa sabe decir “No trabajamos con humanos, trabajamos para los humanos”.

El Sob – Silence is even sexier

El Sob – Silence is even sexier

El Sob

“Silence is even sexier”

Silence is even sexier if it is your silence!
So shut the fuck up and buy this record to be the sex bomb you’ve always dreamed of.

El Sob is not one of the classic influencers you can find on the internet, He’s the master of the silence. Enjoy his guitar-driven songwriting between Arto Linsday and Bill Frisell as the only thing better than silence is El sob, or it was João Gilberto?
