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.”

presque papegaai

“dusty dawn”

Two autocomplete junkies with two cyberdecks hooked up over midi and
adat, fueled by two glasses on continious refill rotation, and the
occasional psychedelic nightcap. A quiet room, with quiet clicks, plucks
and taps over muffled looped up weirdness leaking out of headphones.
Homebrewed beer, hardware and software, all very much alpha stage. Ten
hours of backlog, edited down to thirty minutes of almost music. Staged,
committed and mixed down to a beta version. Served to you over TCP/IP
for your real world enjoyment.

Bass, Kalimba, PureData: nonkel waldek

Lately Kind of Yeah – Motor Grown-up

Lately Kind of Yeah – Motor Grown-up

Lately Kind of Yeah

“Motor Grown-up”

For my ears, Lately Kind of Yeah and evocations of nature come packaged as one, accompanying or even transcending literal lyrical interpretations or impressions one might scoop from track titles. Melodies plod like footsteps on dunes; guitar riffs swirl through crunching distortion like leaves in a windstorm. Looping vocals become the benevolent mantra of waves rolling against the shore, especially notable in the release’s centerpiece, “Zones” — let it wash over you.

der analoge mann

AngstTräumerInferno

2017 begann die Reise des AngstTräumerInferno mit einem Aneinanderreihen von Worten für die Titel und dem Konzept, aus bestimmten Instrumenten eine minimalistische Struktur aufzubauen und diese recht schnell und
überwiegend im First-Take aufzunehmen. 2021 schrieb ich die Texte, welche ich mit Ideen aus den Titeln ebenso im First-Take erdachte, und vollendete die Aufnahmen.

Zum Einsatz kamen die Volcas Beats und Keys, eine Bassgitarre und der Waldorf Rocket. Ergänzt bei einigen Liedern vom Korg Minilogue. Die Aufnahmen begannen im Cubase SX3 und endeten im Studio One 5.

So wenig wie möglich, so viel des Guten.

Mögliche Ähnlichkeiten mit lebenden Personen sind rein zufällig und meine Gedanken keine der möglichen Realitäten zuzuordnen.
