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

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.

AARD – The Night over Arundel Gate

AARD – The Night over Arundel Gate
[pn175B]

AARD

“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…

[LCNLP116]

PIRATE Tapes

“Rose Bed On The Moon”

Listening Rose Bed On The Moon is like watching ghosts of Tuxedomoon waving goodbye to Genesis Breyer P-Orridge… in a lofi parralel universe.
Unvolontary full of our influences flavour with our own very improvised recipes,
well, pell out nostalgia skin to reach the delicious acid core.

Ingredients : pink flamingos, white rabbit, blue rosebud, in the mood for love, man on the moon, pink narcissus, trip/reset…

About the rapture of My Wagonnet Eretique Singer this is was not a joke !
But since that time he’s gone. For a better chonologic understanding it’s important to considere that this album is a kind of prequel, it has been done before Cosmic Hobos Cult.

Guilherme Darisbo + Peter Gossweiler

“Tocan el Blues”

Tocan el blues. Using the Blues patterns framework. Perhaps the best album by Gossweiler + Darisbo partnership. Recorded probably in 2013, it waited for several years for release. Whenever the two artists met, they remembered, “What about that blues record?” A vida tem dessas coisas. Hey yeah. Tell me what you gonna do.

PIRATE Tapes

“Cosmic Hobos Cult”

Cosmic Hobos Cult is above all another page in the logbook of our improvised sound adventures. In a world under control, rigid, where everything obeys objectives, preaching the flexibility of vagrancy seems really saving. Not trying to please is obviously an act of resistance. From Kerouac to Kaufman, from Henry David Thoreau to Eden Ahbez, wandering leads to transcendence. Taming the silence. Free yourself from certainties. The spirituality of experience emerges through encounters, communion with wild nature, revelations of extreme states. The realization that you can just be alive. That it makes no sense to worry about appearing when the mind can break through like the celestial tramps.

These songs are too long for those who don’t want to like them, without values ​​for those who want to miss them. Yet those who will not be put off by the filth and take this road far from the information superhighways … are already walking by our side.

Recorded at the Cave Haven Sunday 6th September 2020.
A musical dive into the celestial tramps poetry…
Thanks to Kerouac and all the Beat Generation for the inspiration.
This is improvised music… so we do not remove anything, that mean this isn’t formated for mainstream listeners… this is freewave.

Me In The Bath

“Last Before Jura”

This time, with guests, Me In The Bath recorded an acoustic album in full improvisation, in a busy afternoon of April 2018. Then, drums were patiently added during the two next years, for a release that looks toward Velvet Underground, somewhere between alternative acoustic rock and artrock, punk and poppunk.
