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 Miro, 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

Joan’s Diary

“Vargtimmen”

Born in 2011, JOAN’S DIARY made their debut with the ep HYSTERIA for Toten Schwan Records, followed by the album AND OR NOT (Toten Schwan / ® esisto) and HELLO, BLOODY SISTER also on Toten Schwan (which will make use of graphic works by the master Sergio Padovani) and in 2015 TSUCHIGUMO (latest release for Toten Schwan Records).

They partecipate in several compilations and a 4 way split with Luciferi, OV Temple and Inghippo. The latest album was called SINDROME VAUCANSON and was released on Tu-Fa Records in Palermo. The group is made up of Davide Rossi, Luca Rossi and Eleonora Frascatore.

This is a tribute to the memory of DAVIDE ROSSI who in September of the year 2019 had decided to end his existence by giving us an appointment somewhere else.

The tracks that make up this album are drafts of what could have been something new for JOAN’S DIARY and which I found in a forgotten folder on my computer.

I completed them myself, trying to keep faith with Davide’s approach, as far as I could. They represent one of the many ways that I put in place not to forget him and to alleviate the pain still alive for his silent escape.
If he had had them in his hands they would certainly have been different, probably better, but I am not and will never be like him, so take them like this, as they came out.

It is an album that does not seek glory or complacency, but which only aims to keep his memory alive.

Many Thanks to Marco Valente of Toten Schwain Records, and Anime Nere.

Noise Ladder

“Noise is color in silence #01”

In a noisy and chaotic world, many of us are looking for calmness or emptiness. And when we finally find some pieces of silence, we understand that they are not empty at all.

Nicolas Lafay aka Noise Ladder presents “Noise is color in silence”. Behind this name, there is a series of releases, each of them consists of a cassette tape with original artwork and a digital version. For every new release, a new artist is invited to propose a visual universe for the music of Noise Ladder.

Jeanne Van Monckhoven, a French artist from Bordeaux, has drawn 4 gorgeous cassette covers for the first issue, so 4 copies of the tape are available.

The music is downloadable for free.

Nurses With Knives & Pirtek – Cognitive Dissonance – The Remastered Edition

Nurses With Knives & Pirtek – Cognitive Dissonance – The Remastered Edition
[earS094]

Nurses With Knives & Pirtek

“Cognitive Dissonance – The Remastered Edition”

Originally released in 2014, Cognitive Dissonance (“the mental discomfort also known as psychological stress experienced by a person who holds two or more contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values.”) is a calloborative work between noise musician Nurses With Knives and Extratone/Noisecore artist Pirtek from Derby, UK. The two originally met in 2009 from a former project between the two and had moved to further harder territory. their first input was “Structural Defects” release on 1000+ (much to NWK’s dismay at the time) in which Pirtek provided drum programming and NWK added sounds/samples/noises. Cognitive Dissonance is different in this aspect as NWK provided original material to be remixed and reworked by Pirtek, thus making them a more harsher, noiser output. The duo would later part after this release in 2014 and are still in touch over music and collaborative ideas to this day.

Oscar Santis – Tercer Vertice

Oscar Santis – Tercer Vertice
[pn147]

Oscar Santis

“Tercer Vertice”

OVERVIEW:

The album “Tercer Vértice” (Third Vertex) is the closing of a trilogy started with “Desde la Caja” (From the Box)
which was released by Pueblo Nuevo in 2016. The second part “Tides of Continental Plate” was published in 2017 by the Canadian label Oral records under the management of Eric Mattson.

These three works are a gradual evolution from the preferential use of digital tools and the computer to a generation of sound dominated by analog elements, even though both of these worlds remain present. They were recorded in a relatively consecutive period of time, although during a period of change in sonic conception. They are three ways of looking at the same place with varying the point of views.

Baltazar – Abstrakthas

Baltazar – Abstrakthas
[pn146]

Baltazar

“Abstrakthas”

“‘Abstrakthas’ by the Cuban artist Baltazár, is a work that was published independently in 2009, and which now
sees the light of a label release for the first time.

A mix between the classical, the digital, music concréte, architecture, voices and endless possibilities, all of
them modulated by infinite reverberations that merge as the tracks develop, with sounds that oscillate in all
directions while delivering an overwhelming listening experience.

In its composition, the album ‘Abstrakthas’ uses the violin as a conductive thread that pulls the different
works of the publication together into a melancholic story that, in some way or another, incites a deep
reflection on the various sounds that are revealed as the work progresses, playing with the mood perception and
delivering a wide range of sensations.

Recorded mostly as independent stereo tracks, which are subsequently superimposed with the purpose of realizing
a maticulous and patient sonic construction, based on the sonic blocks resulting from these recordings,
‘Abstrakthas’ is also the first chapter of the larger work ‘bordermuzak’, which collects all the artist’s
works from 1999 to 2016. It should be noted, however, that ‘bordermuzak’ does not compile the works
chronologically but rather as chapters of a novel written over the years.”

Lately Kind Of Yeah – Gastr

Lately Kind Of Yeah – Gastr

Lately Kind Of Yeah

“Gastr”

Part of the Lately Kind of Yeah archive series.

Gastr is yet another short but sweet EP offering from Lately Kind of Yeah. Fully in his element of noise / pop master craftsmanship and containing some of my favorite tracks from him, “Where is My Jaw” and “Meditate”. A fine place to begin with LKOY if you are just beginning to explore his archive.

Words from the artist:

“Sometime in 2014, an original B.C. Rich Warlock was gifted to me by one of my dad’s old buddies. I took it as a sign that out in the ether, my dad was still listening and encouraging me to keep writing music. The Warlock has since become a phenomenal inspiration with all of its quirks and issues, leading my writing towards a darker and more abrasive sound. Gastr came together quickly as our ‘getting to know each other’ exercise, influenced by the many noise and pop bands I was listening to, and the Warlock itself.”
