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

88756 – Do You Believe In Me?
[CVU021]

88756

“Do You Believe In Me?”

The CVU series is designed to welcome repeat offenders, and boy howdy is 88756 emerging as a prominent, permanent contributor to the label. After first touching base with the label last year, releases on CVU008 and CVU020 (as well as some stunning visual work on the DVD), and collaborative gigs in Meanjin (Brisbane), Boorloo (Perth), and Naarm (Melbourne), it’s safe to say that the program’s place in the label mainframe is set.

Producing with rapidfire efficiency, CVU021 is another brilliant expression of the core 88756 sound, focusing on a blend of fat classic electro, and lopsided, rhythmic techno. We’re also thrilled to welcome Backpocket Slammers’ co-founder XYSid to the label, with a storming remix of the title track “Do You Believe In Me?”; tying off a rock-solid package.

With more musical and event collaborative goodness on the horizon, as well as the recent launch of 88756’s accessible rehearsal space in Naarm – Mechanical Soul, we’re excited to keep our sights thoroughly fixed on this artist in the future.

Talons’ – At Light​/​Dark

Talons’ – At Light​/​Dark

Talons’

“At Light​/​Dark”

One of the joys of parenting is watching your child learn how to speak. In the process of figuring out which words to use while building a vocabulary, kids come up with creative and poetic ways to verbalize their emotions and describe the world around them. My son started using the word “lightdark” to describe both dusk and dawn and we have adopted it into the family vocabulary over the past few years.

Talons’ at Light/Dark pays tribute to this in-between time. A time between awake and asleep but also a time of uncertainty, transition and change. The music, built out of ebow-ed guitar and synthesizer, is meant to reflect this tension between rest and anxiety, calm and worry, day and night.

Seagulls:

At Light/Dark, I don’t know where I am
Almost 40 and even more lost than I was at 20
And have I ever really said how I feel without overwhelming guilt?
Guilt rules everything

And everyone’s a mess
Broken, broke and hoping for a little bit of luck.
Seagulls circling the dump
But despite what we believe, there is nothing down there for us.

Heẍa

“C-o [dub]”

the 31st of july we released visuddhi (ogredung #16), composed by our virtuesman purusha, before leaving for the summer vacation. it was a weird ambient d’n’b track, with some trigging inflections brought by a style he would define as ‘ceramics’.
well our new musician hexa, from japan, is a master of idm/ambient/breakbeats, and seems to compose his music by reminding the track named above, with great deepness and emphasis, that is.
xpecially this c o [dub], astonishes us, as if a deep, melancholic melody slowly grows up from the very depths of our hearts, and once in our head, we can’t do anything but let it take us to the heavens.

Sabi – Four Thousand Years EP

Sabi – Four Thousand Years EP
[mtk088]

Sabi

“Four Thousand Years EP”

With summer slowly sliding into autumn, we figured a little contemplative ambience was in order, and Japanese artist Sabi, who released on Mono a _long_ time back with .MODs under the name of Taro, and has since done excellent work for net.labels like Inpuj.

On this EP, beautiful, puretoned sinewaves mix with sampled ambience from real-life, as “Yello Sand Back” gives us the subtlest drifts of sound ever, “Johdo” iterates in the smallest of ethereal beats, and “Uki 3 2” has what sounds like Japanese street scenes twinned with gorgeous limbo-floating wonder.

A prime candidate for Winamp perma-repeat and curiously womb-like, we suggest you make a Freudian statement to be reckoned with, and download four thousand years of eternity, yours for the toying with, courtesy Sabi.

The mixes will feature on the BRAWLcast but will also appear here on Bandcamp with the unmixed tracks and the mix available in lossless formats.

“Some Moons Glitter”

distant tides of highway noise
split by the train’s bright aubade
closer to your ears than mine

the way the wind picks up your
voices reedlike lilting cross
flying floating fabrics the

collected crumbs bits of fluff
dust found floating in the air
denoting the sticky side

of fabrics so silken soft
as in a morning sunrise
lilting floating voicelike cross

tides of lawns more moss than grass
singing through the storm distant
train ringing through memory

Essentia Sound & Ekodust

“Atmospheric Rivers”

Essentia Sound & Ekodust – Atmospheric Rivers (Insectorama136)

Atmospheric Rivers is based on a series of record breaking rainfalls that swept through British Columbia in the fall of 2021 washing away homes, bridges and highways, causing landslides and loss of human and animal life. The weather system identified as an atmospheric river is a large, narrow stream of water vapour that travels through the sky. Usually originating in tropical ocean regions near the equator, these rivers bring masses of warm air and water from the ocean to land, sometimes dumping a month’s worth of rain or snow in a matter of days.

Tracklist:
1.Essentia Sound & Ekodust – River One
2.Ekodust – Gentle Dawn
3.Essentia Sound & Ekodust – River Two
4.Essentia Sound & Ekodust – River Three
5.Essentia Sound & Ekodust – River Four

Abdicant

“In-Group”

Jeremy Rice is Boston-area lover of synthesizers and synth music, striving to make his own electronic music with a curious sense of introspection and mystery.

As Abdicant and Curious Inversions he has notable releases on Kahvi Collective, including our 2022 favorite “Turing Complete”, and some more quality releases on his personal bandcamp. Two other outstanding 2022 releases are the “Strange Sedatives” album by Cognition Delay, the duo of Jeremy and Paul Alexander (Pandacetamol, Fluffy Inside) on Rednetic and the “A Curious Shade of Blue” album by The Hive Project, the duo of Jeremy Rice and Anthony Paul Kerby (The Circular Ruins), that has released 3 albums on Anthony’s DataObscura label since 2006.

Abdicant’s magical debut album on Mahorka, “In-Group”, specially recorded with the label and his closest friends-collaborators in mind, came out at the end of July 2022 and notably includes reworks of the original tracks from some of these guys – Kahvi’s boss 4T Thieves, Paul’s Pandacetamol project, Anthony’s The Circular Ruins project, Weldroid and Tomoroh Hidari.

About Access Frame:
The series of compilations titled Access Frame aim to present a wide spectrum of local alternative music (with emphasis on electronic and experimental music) that has found its safe haven on the internet. The never before encountered entwinement of technology, society, making music and ownership rights has been causing a serious conflict between free culture and the outdated and exploitative concepts of copyright. Adhering to the spirit of free access, online labels are the first in the struggle for equal access and a more fair copyright (facilitated by the introduction of the Creative Commons license).

About Netlabel Day:
In this spirit we are supporting the annual celebration of netlabel culture every July 14th. Every year labels participate and release free music releases specifically for the event to support the initiative by M.I.S.T. Records in Chile and curated now by The Seattle Star.

Rupert Falsch – Im Zenit / In Gefahr

Rupert Falsch – Im Zenit / In Gefahr

Rupert Falsch

“Im Zenit / In Gefahr”

“An intense opening here to a degree that it reminded me of our old faves Add N To (X). That was before the vocals gave ‘Im Zenit / In Gefahr’ a certain robotic lounge and a charm that meant our heart returned to a normal beat range.

For all that Rupert Falsch really appears to be going for it here, a night-time provocateur with an eye on the dancefloor but something more than that too for there is a relentless spirit to the piece that sees it change its colours a couple of times over its running time.

It stands apart for its incessant frequency and there is currency in such things as it affords the listener a hypnotic hideaway as all other distractions are put in the shade.

The whole effect is quite inorganic as if it had been designed by the machines whose sole purpose is to take over but at the same time the rhythmic qualities meant we were quite consumed in a Malajube (or for that matter Air) kind of way.”

Ciya

“Fantasy”

In an attempt to get answers to unknown questions of things that are difficult to put into words, sacrifices were made to abstract gods along the way.
Among the narratively drawn accidents, which are tactile sounds that combine into forms, a detailed answer to the question “how are you?” is read between the lines.
Even if they ask such a question to the listener.

Попытка получить ответы на неизвестные вопросы сложно поддающихся словам вещей, по пути принесены жертвы абстрактным богам.
Среди повествовательно нарисованных случайностей, представляющих из себя тактильные звуки, объединяющиеся в формы, между строк читается подробный ответ на вопрос “как дела?”.
Даже если задают такой вопрос слушателю.
