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, 28.1.2026

Hello, I have made a few changes to the site. Unfortunately, I am not quite finished yet, but it should continue without interruption. I hope you find the changes useful. Stay tuned. Konrad

guska

“5 years a goose”

Five years ago i started publishing music on Bandcamp, so a small celebration seems to be appropriate. The tracks on this album are all made during the last five years, two tracks are reworked versions from two of my albums (“kleine stücke” and “Herbarium”), two tracks are inspired by the Beat Battles (formerly on metapop, now on discord, the rest have never been published before. The last track (“arctic goose”) is brand new.

Jazzaria

“Chronologically”

Tick, tock, goes the clock – chimes are on, then they’re not. Sometimes we observe a pause, yet it lacks a likely cause. Onwards too we tick ourselves, and someday tock right off the shelf.

Featuring orchestral strings, woodwinds, female choir, drum kit, synthesizer, upright bass, acoustic guitar, tenor saxophone, and piano.

[EEM065]

id

“lunetta”

Lunetta is a modular synthesizer built using mostly digital logic chips.

All of the Lunettas are unique and different, because they allow creative and irregular ways to patch them up, since they are mainly made out of CMOS chips and allow completely different ways of modulation compared to analog electronics.

Lunettas share their specific tonal character, which is a complex pulse modulation, rich in high frequency harmonics, making them sound alike. The differences come from individual design and the chosen chips resulting in sometimes quirky or unpredictable behaviour.

Lunetta’s nametag comes from Stanley Lunetta, who was a classical and experimental musician. He is thought to be the first one to bring cheap digital logic chips to the table for making electronic instruments usually used in avant-garde music.

This album is a compilation of home, studio and live performance recordings, with a home-made Lunetta synthesizer, sound effects and feedback loops.

Jazzaria – Discovery

Jazzaria

“Discovery”

Travel occurs for many reasons, yet a true journey implies discovery. Inherently uncertain, ambiguity can cause fear – but also excitement. What is discovered when one goes beyond the realms of prior exploration?

Featuring orchestral brass, strings, woodwinds, snare drum, piano, synth, choir, and upright bass.

Multiple Personality 3 – MUTATIONS

Multiple Personality 3 – MUTATIONS
[LCNLP170]

Multiple Personality 3

“MUTATIONS”

Recorded live the 17th July 2023 in the Cave Haven in Foucherans (france).
The same day than Orpheus Secret by REfugEEs From Beyond.
Well it was a very warm day of summer and we were very happy to play again together*…
Also this is perhaps the very last recording of Multiple Personality 3, that’s why it sounds sometime closer to PIRATE Tapes

*Halas it was a so small cellar to host five people like us inside without to be a total mess. It could be our worst improvisation session ! Like 5 elements unable to play together… till the last track when we remain only 3. I apologize I should have read first the combo name “Multiple Personality 3” and understand that to play in trio is the best line-up for us.

Loosely based on the Book Of Mutations…

Vincent Cardinaux : Drums
Alain Grille : Electric Guitar + FX
Psyché Pelik : Vox
Vèver Coub : Electric Bass Guitar

Jazzaria – Suspend Disbelief

Jazzaria – Suspend Disbelief

Jazzaria

“Suspend Disbelief”

Beliefs keep us grounded – contrariwise, they imply possession of the opposing disbelief. But there are times where we should suspend both extremes, and allow ourselves to float in between belief and disbelief. Like sand in a shaker, our temporary defiance of ideational gravity can enable us to express things beyond our conscious imaginings.

Featuring orchestral strings, choir, piano, shakers, synthesizers, brushed drums, flute, and bass.

Yoshiwaku

“Remembering The Comet”

The Necrophile Hummingbird netlabel presents Remembering The Comet by Yoshiwaku.
“Minimal Music for Serial Listeners”
This is the third part of the trilogy “Under the ground, inside the flesh & over the sky” including, in second Häxan Cult and in first Music To Burst In Tears. The tracks are really at the frontier between CorteX and Yoshiwaku.
Because I’m really fan of Terry Riley’s Serial Music the first 3 tracks are a blink eye to is “A Rainbow in Curved Air” album, but the music is not that much sounding like serialism, more the usual hypnotic improvised music I do.

Recorded between April and May 2023 at the Cave Haven In Foucherans.

Dedicated to all those who release free their dreams.

PIRATE Tapes – McClintic Sphere
[LCNLP162]

PIRATE Tapes

“McClintic Sphere”

The Necrophile Hummingbird Netlabel presents McClintic Sphere by PIRATE Tapes.
“Intuitive Music for Instrumental People”

Sometime words are useless, when they are right above the surface, whispering so loud that you can nearly catch them, that’s why we kept raw this improvisation session.
Music is universal because instead of our own words, you can let your one’s talk on this music.
What to say more… This has been recorded around one year before our common friend departure.
It’s not our usual psychedelic noise, it can be perturbing first, far further into the darkjazz neverland, but once you shift with it, you’ll reach this reality like a kind of parallel universe of Thomas Ruggles Pynchon novels. If Hum Antenna was the psychedelic side, here come the neo-noir.

Recorded the 29th June 2021 at Cave Haven in Foucherans (france).
Members :
Studio 112 (electric guitare and FX)
McClintic (electric guitare and percussions)
Ed End (kaossilator, turntable, sounds)
