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

Sambarnyawa – Hutan dan Teriakan

Sambarnyawa – Hutan dan Teriakan

Sambarnyawa

“Hutan dan Teriakan”

Hutan hampir selalu menjadi referensi bagi kesunyian, meski sunyi tidak pernah benar-benar ada. Ranting-ranting bergoyang terhempas angin, diiringi daun-daun yang berguguran. Lalu, bunyi-bunyi gesekan, terkadang mendesis, mendesau, dan menderu, silih berganti mengisi celah-celah pepohonan. Lebih seksama lagi, sayup-sayup suara burung atau fauna lainnya bersahut-sahutan. Dan hutan, kita tahu, menjadi penopang kehidupan semesta: menjaga keseimbangan, tempat bagi air dan udara bereproduksi, menyimpan ragam sumber daya yang melimpah. Di beberapa masyarakat non-urban, keberadaannya disakralkan. Mitos membalutnya dan diimani orang-orang yang hidup di sekelilingnya. Hutan disucikan, sekaligus ditakuti, angker, wingit.

Tapi, hutan juga menyimpan teriakan-teriakan. Sebelum pemukiman menjalar liar, hutan adalah medan laga pertempuran. Pangeran Sambernyawa bertahan dari gempuran tentara gabungan Kompeni dan Mataram di hutan Sitakepyak. Atau, taktik perang gerilya yang menjadikan hutan tempat persembunyian, seperti saat Perang Revolusi Indonesia dan Perang Vietnam. Di hutan pula, pembantaian sering terjadi. Berita-berita acap kali mengabarkan penemuan jasad pembunuhan. Ada juga kisah tentang pembantaian besar, seperti di Indonesia paska 1965. Mereka yang simpatisan atau dituduh penganut paham kiri, banyak yang dibunuh di dalam hutan, menyisakan lubang-lubang kuburan massal.

Ultramerda – Plastika

Ultramerda – Plastika
[IYE35]

Ultramerda

“Plastika”

The parental advisory’s warning, is no longer used today. the language of everyday life has broken the glass of censorship in the face of mothers against rock.

However Plastika would not need any stamp: your ears are ready to swallow this poet ante litteram that chews digital hardcore, cantautore and do it yourself. Proudly self-produced in everything from texts to recording.

Plastika are 12 tracks of a continuous loading and unloading of energy, in the form of syncopated shots and more intimate and rarefied passages.

Approved with the stamp by In Your Ears Netlabel.

Lately Kind Of Yeah – Gastr

Lately Kind Of Yeah – Gastr

Lately Kind Of Yeah

“Gastr”

Part of the Lately Kind of Yeah archive series.

Gastr is yet another short but sweet EP offering from Lately Kind of Yeah. Fully in his element of noise / pop master craftsmanship and containing some of my favorite tracks from him, “Where is My Jaw” and “Meditate”. A fine place to begin with LKOY if you are just beginning to explore his archive.

Words from the artist:

“Sometime in 2014, an original B.C. Rich Warlock was gifted to me by one of my dad’s old buddies. I took it as a sign that out in the ether, my dad was still listening and encouraging me to keep writing music. The Warlock has since become a phenomenal inspiration with all of its quirks and issues, leading my writing towards a darker and more abrasive sound. Gastr came together quickly as our ‘getting to know each other’ exercise, influenced by the many noise and pop bands I was listening to, and the Warlock itself.”

Sans Libertas

“Sans Libertas”

Tras 11 años de haberse formado, esta es la carta de presentación de Sans Libertas, donde se dieron tiempo para recrear y grabar su haber, conservando una forma de hacer punk muy al estilo de los 80’s y 90’s: un punk sucio, pero digerible y entendible.
