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

“2020 Compilation”

We round off a disturbing year to say the least with a new edition of the annual Atomnation compilation series. Across 10 essential tracks, this year’s selections touch on some of the best music released in the last 12 months as well as serving up some new tracks. Exclusive to download for free on Bandcamp for the next few days. Thank you for your support, stay safe all and take care of each other.

The exclusives on this year’s collection include ‘Off The Ground’ from Sky Civilian, the New Mexico artist who spans many musical worlds from pop to house to techno. Her track is a gorgeous ambient and classical fusion that washes over you like a dream. Another exclusive comes from dark disco innovators Bufi and the Mordisco duo, who between them have credits on labels like My Favorite Robot and Duro. Their ‘Los Pilares’ is a rugged, textured chugger with slapping hits and pixelated cosmic leads.

Leonardo Di Fiore aka NOCUI is a new Italian composer, producer, and sound designer whose exclusive ‘All Night’ is a breezy deep house groove with machine made soul and heart warming chords from the future. Lastly for the exclusives, Dutch duo Polynation are known for improvisational, spontaneous dynamic live performances. They capture that here with a freeform and jazzy synth style as they carry you away to the heavens on shimmering breakbeats with ‘Humming’.

Elsewhere, Applescal serves up the supple and melodic deep techno of ‘Cymbals Rush’, which is taken from his Diamond Skies album back in May, while Gidge also serve up ‘New Light’, a track taken from their album of the same name and one that is awash with heavenly vocal chants, melancholic chords and expansive post-pop beats. Add in tried and tested favourites from Millio, David Douglas, Sam Goku and boys be kko and you have another well-sequenced journey through many shades of electronic music that are all united by emotive feelings and great craft.

Luka Prinčič – ark​/​d, amorphic

Luka Prinčič – ark​/​d, amorphic

Luka Prinčič

“ark​/​d, amorphic”

“an uninterrupted journey of purely computer music, which moves through diverse sonic fields and eavesdrops on the darker aspects of contemporary human condition”

The newest work by the Slovenian intermedia artist Luka Prinčič, the continued piece ark/d, amorphic is somewhat minimal, but a complex composition and an example of computer music in the new decade. With SuperCollider and computer programming Prinčič has managed to use various sound-generating algorithms to form a lengthy non-linear sound story. Searching for the amorphousness in the absence of form, he programmed the sound generators and transformations using the programming language like a loom, sewing the code into repetitive pulsations and ambiental scenery that eavesdrops on the darker aspects of contemporary human condition.

Deliberately in small initials, the title ark/d, amorphic alludes to a minority philosophy that seeks a world in the shadows of the spectacle and activates against the domination of the majority and the megalomania of post-objectification.

Chapters of ark/d, amorphic:
· be back lighter
· gcdmod
· AKJ
· shippo
· wranglemel
· lcmnoi
· s1dist
· padme
· lorenzp

Source code to album is published free under conditions of Peer Production Licence – available as bonus material in the download, but also currently on this link: git.tmp.si/luka/ark_d.amorphic/src/branch/master/ark_d.scd

entropija – genealogija B: 2016-2018
[EEM060]

entropija

“genealogija B: 2016-2018”

Continuing on from “genealogija A”, this is the second instalment of a retrospective collection. Including sounds from even before the start of entropija project, the album timeline spans almost 2 years, between August 2016 and June 2018. In contrast to previous album‘s colorful dynamics, this is a document of a more abstract side of entropija‘s performative spectrum. Clusters and bits of sound engage in complex interactions, trying to morph into a cohesive body, but the form seems to escape each time just before solidifying. Hints of order or harmony are quickly overwhelmed, and by the end, completely buried under layers of intersecting accidents. If there was a genre label suitable for this record, “liquid noise” would probably be it.

Marcelo Espindola

“De un tiempo a esta parte”

The confluence of sound textures and the use of loops in the classic way of musique concrète are found in this long-playing music, an acousmatic bet by Marcelo Espíndola, who has long experience in this art. With a large musical background, Espíndola who is a percussionist and moves between contemporary music and funk,displays high claritypercussion sounds and spaces of various kinds through maintained materials(according to Schaeffer’s terminology). Timbre, its variations and its positioning in space through reverberation and location in the stereo panorama, enrich the sonic whole. Synthesis and sampling come together in a mixture of detailed sound craft that forms a journey that transits between the contemplative and an organic or a mechanical drive, all according to the type of repetitions and exposed materials.

Point – Human Music II

Point – Human Music II
[DigitalDiamonds081L]

Point

“Human Music II”

We are honoured to present Point’s latest full-length album, the sequel, Human Music II. Point (GER) continues to present his signature style at an incredibly high calibre. Call it a blend of 80’s-futuristic-space-electronica containing hints of progressive techno and house, if you will. His precision sound pallet consists of 808’s, retro-analog synths, fidgety percussion and lush, gravitating reverbs. He weaves these tone colours in a daring and delicate manner while leading you on an eluding quest to the centre of a multi-dimensional digital mirage. Plugin and feed yourself to this slow-burning soundtrack.

“Synphonica”

What happens when you give electronic artists orchestral sounds to create a track? The Synphonica EP. The challenge was to use the BBC Symphonic Orchestra ‘Discover’ (by Spitfire Audio) to create a track, only using sounds from the pack without any other external sounds.

We hope this album gives you a small moment of relaxation during this Christmas season, after the long year that 2020 has turned out to be.

Bon-Psy

“Borzoi”

A brief look into the past of Bon-Psy shows how far the young musician has come.

‘Borzoi’ is rough around the edges but undoubtedly a forward thinking tune showcasing Bon-Psy’ influences in the experimental beat making scene.

Resurrected from the vault, ‘Borzoi’ finally finds its way out into the world showing a glimpse of the sound ‘Bon-Psy’ was to develop.

“The Night over Arundel Gate”

AARD had an intense existence for three years, performing several electronic improv sessions, all recorded at the University of Sheffield Studios, also known as The Sound House, they also had several live presentations at various opportunities and spaces in the city of Sheffield.

These tracks correspond to rehearsal sessions for a concert given at the Foodhall, located in the city centre and which performs a great social work as community kitchen and public dining room.The title refers to a nearby avenue where the duo traveled numerous times in search of a concert or a few beers.This is a surrealistic dark journey into the night flying over an imaginary version of that avenue…
