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

Julien Palomo + Fabien Robbe – Miniatures

[mhrk410]

Julien Palomo + Fabien Robbe

“Miniatures”

Released September 21, 2024 as free (cc) download and beautiful limited edition digipak CD.

“This, our second album, is a collection of synthesized short pieces.

Whether you deem them abstractions due to their strange harmonic contents, or figurative of strange places, is up to you. The key word here is “atmosphere”. They convey no message, they were not created with any intent.

In saying what they’re not, we’re saying they are pure imagination at play. They deal with mental images and perceptions, before language creates order – and falsehoods – out of the plasma of free association.

During their making we never discussed them, bar a few technical points ; never defined them, never worded anything. We never ever mentioned we were actually “doing” them, and really discovered them afterwards.

Of course, we will never succeed in saying nothing. We’re subjects. And the very fact we have to write something about it is the heart of the paradox. But at least we can try. We all deserve a good vacation from meaning. There are other forces at play, like sound.”

Kevin Miller – initial concourse aftermath

Kevin Miller

“initial concourse aftermath”

The music heard on this recording consists of what the subtitle suggests; solo guitar improvisations from 7-24-24.
All of the music is completely improvised, and was recorded using a few different basic sound setups from virtual amp plugins.
The titles, for the most part, have nothing to do with the music on any level.

Sýček – IV

Sýček

“IV”

released September 17, 2024

Sýček je známý jako posel smrti, ale v české alternativní hudbě byl vždy přízviskem pro hudební antižánr krautrock, který tuzemské kapely do svých repertoárů zařazovali jen velmi sporadicky. Motorické bicí, hypnotické melodie, repetitivní struktury, minimalistické texty a heslo méně je více ale tuto kapelu charakterizovalo od prvních songů. Jejich debutové album „I” (vyšlo u NAAB) bylo v roce 2017 nadšeně přijato hudebními kritiky ( nominace na cenu Vinyla a zařazení do TOP10 českých desek za rok 2017 mezinárodního magazínu Beehype.) Po tom, co kapela hojně koncertovala a absolvovala i několik evropských tour, ale přišlo delší odmlčení zapříčiněné rozpadem původní jihočeské sestavy.

Sýček jako fénix vstává z popela v minulém roce, kdy frontman a zpěvák skupiny Libor Staněk II. společně s kytaristou Richardem Steinem (Pokora) do nové formace přizvali Jakuba Zháňala (ex Acute dose), Ambroze Šuleje (Krstní Otcovia) a Adama Křizovenského s Nataly Středovou (GRÜNT).

V současnosti už tedy česko-slovenská kapela Sýček na podzim 2024 vydává po sedmi letech druhou studiovou desku s lakonickým názvem „IV“. Nové uskupení se navrací tam odkud Sýček vzlétl poprvé: ke krautrockovému vzývání, které fanoušky uvádí do… more

Wahn – Drifted Vol. 2

[mhrk409]

Wahn

“Drifted Vol. 2”

Following the spectral echoes of “Drifted Vol. 1” (on AFTER AFFECTS REC, France), Wahn returns, debuting on Mahorka, with “Drifted Vol. 2”, a deeper plunge into the abyss where despair looms heavier, yet faint glimmers of hope still emerge like distant stars in an endless night. The soundscape is darker, more cinematic, with grainy textures crackling like fractured memories. Lush, slow-motion atmospheres stretch into the void, embracing the listener in a weighty melancholy, where piano keys occasionally pierce the darkness like fragile rays of light, offering fleeting moments of solace.

In this second chapter, Wahn pushes deeper into the balance between hopelessness and the persistence of light. Cinematic undertones weave through the tracks, amplifying the immersive sense of narrative. The sub-bass resonates like a rumble from the earth’s core, making the body itself an instrument in this journey, grounding the ethereal melodies with a tactile, visceral presence. The ambient realms are thicker, more haunting, yet at times they break open to reveal a brief but tender embrace of warmth. Each track unfolds like a slow, mournful exhale, drawing the listener deeper into an intimate dance of sorrow and fragile hope.

Join Wahn as he continues this odyssey, where textures grow darker, the light more elusive, and the journey more introspective. Drifted Vol. 2 is a cinematic exploration into the profound depths of despair, with sub-bass vibrations and fleeting moments of light that make the experience as physical as it is emotional.

Composed, produced and mastered by Wahn

Paul* Hermansen – act

Paul* Hermansen

“act”

Worked on this on and off for about 2 years, because I occasionally felt nostalgic for bass wobbles, wonky beats and lofi atmos.
This schizophrenic EP sits uncomfortably somewhere in between early 2000s UK dubstep and the kind of computer music I normally do.
The last tune is a “proper rinsin” dubstep banger, whereas the rest of the pieces of this EP refract the idiomatic timbres and rhythms of dubstep through an abstracting prism.
Although download is free, please consider paying something, because Saoirse and I are very poor, and in order to make music, we have to eat something.

LIVRE is the new album by M-PeX, a work that celebrates freedom and the essence of being free.

Released as part of the PRALAC artistic residency, with edition by Enough Records and artwork by Marco Madruga, this album is a reflection on the importance of freedom in artistic creation, in life, and in the world.

Cristiano Bocci & Smiltzo – SATOR AREPO TENET OPERA ROTAS

[zen295]

Cristiano Bocci & Smiltzo

“SATOR AREPO TENET OPERA ROTAS”

This is an album inspired by the “Sator square” (also known as “magic square”), a paleochristian inscription found in several places around Italy (the most famous is in Pompei), whose meaning is mysterious even today.

Five tracks; each one of those is a word of the square, and each one consists of five sonic ambients, which are the letters that make up the word itself. Each letter has its own melodic and harmonic content. In order to respect the palindrome pattern of the square, negative harmony was applied.

An instrumental concept album.

passenger – Train to Nowhere

passenger

“Train to Nowhere”

⚠️ 80% des profits faits grâce à l’achat de cet album seront renversés à une association ou cagnotte pour la palestine !

« Train to Nowhere » est une partie de la soundtrack de mon émission « OddTheater », que j’essaie sans succès de continuer et d’entretenir depuis presque deux ans maintenant. Ainsi, dans le cas où je décide d’abandonner la réalisation de vidéos sur internet, j’ai pris l’initiative de tout de même partager les musiques d’ambiante que j’ai composées et produites pour ladite émission, afin qu’elles ne pourissent pas dans mes dossiers, restant complètement inutiles.

Il n’y a pas de réel lien entre les différents morceaux. Ils peuvent être écoutés dans l’ordre de l’album, tout comme séparément.

Certains morceaux comme Detectives (2), Lost Files (6) ou The Lair (7) sont faits pour pouvoir être joués en boucle.
Par ailleurs, The Woods (4), Silent passenger (5), Lost Files (6), ou Red Hand (9) peuvent être séparés en deux parties chacun. Vous retrouverez en morceau bonus (en téléchargeant l’album), les morceaux 4, 6 et 9 séparés en deux parties. Le 2nd morceau étant divisé en cinq parties, ce serait franchement un peu chiant de toutes les séparer, donc flemme pour celui-là. (vous les séparerez vous-mêmes si vous êtes motivés, les distinctions entre parties ne sont pas si floues)

Enfin, une version acoustique d’Alleviated est disponible en morceau bonus avec le téléchargement de l’album. Celui-ci est entièrement gratuit mais si vous estimez que mon travail le mérite, un achat à prix libre est bien évidemment le bienvenu.

Stanley Hottek – Stupid Love

[HTK05]

Stanley Hottek

“Stupid Love”

At the beginning of the year, Sascha Müller (Psychocandies) asked me if I wanted to do my part for Netlabel Day and contribute a track. Full of enthusiasm, I immediately agreed, only to later realize that time was running out. Too much on my mind, too many projects at once – my problem again. At the last minute, I found a track that had been hidden in my infamous drawer since 2021. Since I recognized potential, I got to work on it, as always at the last minute, changing a few nuances here and there and giving my Waldorf Pulse a voice again.

The theme of the track is “Stupid Love” – ​​a reflection on how crazy love can sometimes be. Whether it’s the passion for music, the relationship with your better half or the incessant urge for toxic bonds and intense, physical music – love has many facets.

As always, you can download the track for free from my Bandcamp profile and from today you can also hear it somewhere in the vastness of this stream during the online stream for Netlabel Day.

Support is welcome, downloads are welcome, sharing is welcome.

WUSA – WUSA

[YESNO 112]

WUSA

“WUSA”

Wusa, formerly known as Band Zoo, has officially adopted its new name – a moniker inspired by the rich history and philosophical teachings of the Khawagaka tradition. Khawagaka itself is a doctrine inscribed on ancient manuscript leaves from the Samasthamarta civilization. The discovery of these Khawagaka manuscripts has unlocked a gateway to delve deeper into the history and traditions that gave rise to this profound teaching.

The Khawagaka doctrine, along with its spoken language and script, was first introduced in the band’s previous album. This latest release delves even further into the origins of Khawagaka teachings and the culture from which they emerged. It also explores the impact of knowledge industrialization and technological advancement on cultural values and traditions.

Wusa’s musical project is part of Rully Shabara’s long-term artistic endeavor centered around the Khawagaka manuscript, which encompasses language, script, belief systems, mythology, philosophy, history, and culture. This ambitious project operates under the auspices of the Khawagaka Historical and Cultural Archives Institute, an independent organization dedicated to tracking, excavating, preserving, and disseminating all findings related to Khawagaka history.

The Wusa music group functions as a division within the Rijmana Council, tasked with interpreting Khawagaka teachings and culture, and popularizing them among contemporary society through modern mediums such as music, film, and other formats. The names of the Zugrafi script and the Zufrasi spoken language were also coined by the Rijmana Council.
