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.

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

[BSOG0074]

Tha Silent Partner

“Touchin’ Gummy Bears Inappropriately”

Last month, Tha Silent Partner celebrated the ten year Anniversary of his incredible Platters series with BLUNTEDSESH. Today, he kicks off the year long celebration with the first of four releases that’s set to drop each quarter this year! With a title like Touchin’ Gummy Bears Inappropriately: The beattape that was playing while your aunty was getting her pums smashed to bits, you have to know that this isn’t safe for work… and probably not safe for the young and people with heart conditions, too! However… it’s DOPE, so you should not sleep.

As always, many thanks goes out to Tha Silent Partner for delivering the funk!

Viktor Van River – Triumph Of Unconscious

[BSOG0073]

Viktor Van River

“Triumph Of Unconscious”

Today we welcome a great new addition to our humble little label… Viktor Van River. Fans of the terrific Bulgarian label Dusted Wax Kingdom will likely know the name and are probably already fans. With his debut full-length album, Viktor wanted to expand his sound a bit beyond the sound that Dusted Wax focuses on, so he followed in the footsteps of his buddy, Cutside, and came to blocSonic.

Ten songs deep, Triumph of Unconscious is a tightly focused album with a big sound. With the global political landscape and upheaval (especially that which we’re seeing happen in the US and UK), it’s no surprise that there are political themes running throughout.

Extra huge shout out to Viktor for being a part of what we do here. Welcome to the blocSonic fam!

KIN/LUCK

“Antithesis”

Today I’m happy to present to you, KIN/LUCK, another incredible project that finds BADLUCK partnering with a great new addition to blocSonic… Kin. Hailing from Burlington, Vermont, Kin delivers his own brand of lyrical dexterity. Together he and Luck deliver a stupendous new album, giving fans new and old that classic hip-hop… an embarassing backslap to the mainstream, no doubt.

“Antithesis” is BADLUCK’s 3rd project in as many months that finds him partnering with talents of such a high caliber and delivering hip-hop of such excellence, it’s simply mind-blowing. I hope it’s the first of many projects by KIN/LUCK.

Luck, you’re a hip-hop god in the making… you already know I’m a fan. Kin… incredible work… welcome to the blocSonic fam. I can’t wait to further introduce bloc’s listeners to your talent. Thanks also goes out to all producers and featured artists… you all shined immensely.

Tha Silent Partner – Platters, Act 7: Tha Anniversary Plate

[BSOG0068]

Tha Silent Partner

“Platters, Act 7: Tha Anniversary Plate”

On December 24th, 2007, Gregory “Tha Silent Partner” Davis released the first volume in what would become an enduring series of music release that altogether has accumulated an incredible 100,000+ downloads. In our little Creative Commons licensed / Netlabel sphere of music, those kinds of numbers are hard to come by. If, as an artist, you’re getting numbers like that, you’re doing something right. Of course, TSP is. It’s difficult for a music producer to develop “a sound”, yet, that’s exactly what he’s done.

Act 7 continues the legacy with ten solid grooves for funkin’… or whatever… download… turn it on… bump it loud… enjoy.

Ever since I first heard Act 1 on Jamendo and decided to include “No Mas” on “netBloc Volume 11 (The Raw and the Cooked)”, it was clear to me that Tha Silent Partner was a music artist that I wanted to keep up with. I was later thrilled when he showed interest in having his music being released at blocSonic It’s been a pleasure and an honor to be able to help spread the word about TSP over the years! It’s also incredible that it’s already going on ten years since he kicked off Platters the Platters series. I look forward to the next ten. TSP, thank you, sir!

Luck & Doc

“Take Time (Maxi Single)”

Today we’ve got something for you that, in a way, began back in 2016 when BADLUCK collaborated with C-Doc on “Freak of Nature” for the dope collaborative album DocSonic. Fast-forward to this year and both decided to join forces again to deliver more fresh hip-hop.

With Luck in the middle of a flurry of recording for multiple projects and C-Doc coming off of production work for Public Enemy’s new album (which has recently released for free online), it’s incredible that they both had the time to make such a collaboration happen!

Luck & Doc make such a great team and I can’t wait to share the album with you! However, for the time being, enjoy the first single… Take Time. The album, Live At The Wake, is scheduled for release on Netlabel Day, July 14th.

Mad props to BADLUCK & C-Doc for collaborating to deliver something special for hip-hop heads to enjoy. There’s so much to dislike about the internet these days, but collaborations such as this are an example of what’s so amazing about it.

Berg Dorf – Blow Cuts

[mfm17]

Berg Dorf

“Blow Cuts”

‘Blow Cuts’ is a collection of raw hip-hop beats with very little embellishment. They provide a blank canvas for imagination. Ideally, the listener should fill the gaps. The aim is to fuel a contemplative state of mind. These tracks were made effortlessly, during a state of flow, and it shows. Most of the samples used have been collected over the years from movies and various other sources. As an artist, Ι’m glad to have managed to produce something coherent in form and content. I enjoy visiting my Blow Cuts from time to time—when the mood is right—and Ι hope you will, too.

Torin Bell – Rain EP

[elyt10]

Torin Bell

“Rain EP”

Rain EP by alternative hip hop/electronica producer Torin Bell, is a collection of three short instrumentals filled with peace, tranquility and joy. The relaxed, unhurried pace of the music, playful melodies and unique chord progressions, definitely make you rest and catch the moment. Amazing tunes that stay with you long after listening.

“The project is centered around water and each track uses the rain within it’s backdrop to provide a soothing white noise alongside various synth waves to create the coming and going of the rain in the spring.
I wanted to create a atmosphere of peace and the rain usually helps in doing so.”(Torin Bell)

Enjoy!

“Alternative Facts (The EP)”

Today we’ve got, Alternative Facts, a dope new EP by Regenerated Headpiece’s own Headsnack! With the state of the U.S. being on most of our minds, whether we support Little Hands or not, it’s imperative that artists tackle the issues that arise because of this country’s political climate. Headsnack, with the help of the rest of RHP and a few other friends, tackles the Alternative Facts head on with the dope beats and rhymes.

Oh… and did I mention that this EP is packed with 11 dope cuts?

Xtra mega thanks to Headsnack, RHP and participating musicians and remixers! It’s super dope to finally get this out to listeners.

Graphic Antics – What Does It Mean?

[BSOG0064]

Graphic Antics

“What Does It Mean?”

In 2016 Ant The Symbol combined forces with fellow Richmond, VA (now Portland, Maine based) artist Graphic Melee to record and release an album. With Ant in control on the beats and Melee rockin’ the mic… Graphic Antics was born. Their first album Uh Oh… provided them with a strong base to build from… one which they would use to full effect this year.

Today we have the pleasure of releasing their sophomore album What Does It Mean? that blasts off from the first album’s base, finding Melee and Ant hitting their stride as a creative team, delivering something special to their fans and new listeners. With Ant’s dense textures and complex rhythms along with Melee’s strong delivery and lyrical content… there’s a lot here for heads to dig.

Many thanks to Graphic Melee and Ant The Symbol for delivering the best GA album yet as your first for the bloc! Melee… welcome to the blocSonic fam!
