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

The Flying Blind – Azoora RMX.EP

[sec.084]

The Flying Blind

“Azoora RMX.EP”

The Flying Blind is an American band with a twist—the members all live in different cities, and work together mostly over the internet. Once or twice a year, they converge on a studio outside Chicago for a few weeks of high-octane debauchery and tracking.

In 2013 they released their self titled debut EP The Flying Blind. Now we are proud to present the remixed version, made by John Purcell / Azoora

Чокнутый Пропеллер – Миллиарды лет

[SCL151]

Чокнутый Пропеллер

“Миллиарды лет”

«Миллиарды лет» is an experimental
album by the band «Чокнутый Пропеллер». It was recorded to celebrate band’s ninth anniversary.
You won’t find any tracks like «Люди против ментов» or «We Wanna Rock», however there are many love songs. Electric guitars were replaced by acoustic, punk rock was replaced by country or Americana. In fact that sounds more like a radio-friendly record, but it’s important to notice that not many bands in Russia are able to record such music in their native language.

Pura Neurosi – Pura Neurosi

SE053

Pura Neurosi

“Pura Neurosi”

Questo progetto musicale affonda le sue radici nella musica elettronica, nel post-rock e nella shoegaze con influenze down-tempo. Voce, chitarre, sintetizzatori e suoni sporchi uniti in un suono unico e convincente. Il progetto Pura Neurosi è iniziato a Barcellona, nell’estate del 2010, e rappresenta la naturale evoluzione delle traiettorie musicali dei membri. Entrambi provengono da un passato rock classico ma negli ultimi anni si sono dedicati alla produzione e al djing di musica techno e minimal. Con riferimenti alla post-dubstep di Mount kimbie, Balam Acab e i suoni atmosferici ed inquietanti di Salem, Pura Neurosi ha fuso queste influenze dentro il suo stile alternativo.

Color Kings – Black Box

SCL146

Color Kings

“Black Box”

Sometimes you listen to the recording and think that it must be a big American band with a numerous team of producers and sound designers. And in many cases you are right because we are all familiar with some specific production peculiarities. But in some cases you are not. Our example today is a single by a Belarusian band «Color King». It’s called «Black Box».
They sound like a true British band and it’s not because of the engineer. Perhaps the key is the unique atmosphere of these songs.
When the openning track «Black Box» sounds like a polished garage rock, «Ghost of Love» seems to be a song written by a band like «Supergrass», which is more interesting. The perception may vary, however these guys create a cool British-like indie rock without that compulsive post-punk stuff.

Valery & The Greedies – Where’s Satan? (Re-edition 2014)

[SCL144]

Valery & The Greedies

“Where’s Satan? (Re-edition 2014)”

О Valery & The Greedies можно рассказать многое. Например то, что группа появилась в 2008 году. Начав играть гаражный панк, быстро сменили курс на, тогда еще только набирающий популярность в России пост панк-ревайвл. Долгое время они были очередными Joy Division, но
стоит отметить, что эпигонство было очень качественное. Ситуацию изменил вышедший в 2011 году первый полноформатный альбом «Where’s Satan?», который был насыщен нервной дрожью и фанком, правда, все портило неудачное продюсирование. В 2012 году вышел второй LP — «Sweet Karjala», ставший апогеем всего творчества коллектива и смешавший в себе афробит, фанк, ска и много чего другого. В 2013 году группа прекратила свое существование. Но все это не могло закончиться просто так. «Where’s Satan?» должен был стать вехой не только для Valery & The Greedies, но и для российской инди-сцены
в целом. Тогда неудачное продюсирование не позволило передать всех задумок, поэтому и возникла острая необходимость полностью переработать, пересвести и ремастеринговать материал, что и было сделано.
«Where’s Satan?» зазвучал новыми красками – стал ярче, громче, плотнее, и главное: стал более психоделичным и танцевальным. Ведь не под это ли, сейчас танцуют бесы на вечеринке у Сатаны? Кстати, а где Сатана?

Tigerberry – Spirit Kit

[SCL143]

Tigerberry

“Spirit Kit”

The first band’s full-length album was compiled from the original songs captured between 2009 and 2012. It depicts the development of their distinctive sound and the starting point. The title “Spirit Kit” shows the idea behind the recording: each song itself is a key to a particular spiritual mood. The soundscape was designed in a very spontaneous and natural way. Nobody planned to release this record, and yet it became the organic 8 track statement that had been gathered from a vast band’s catalogue of singles, outtakes and demos. Serious changes and re-recordings were excluded on purpose to deliver the purest feel and tension behind the music. Remastered by the wizard from Binomial Records. The beauty of layering and reserved power reveals itself in an unexpected way through repeated listening.

“Pride”

Когда человек начинает считать себя самым добрым, самым умным, тут и начинается гниль. Гордыня – худший из грехов, что бы ты ни создал.
Простите ребята, но эта песня не о той любви, с которой все свыклись. Pride – крик великого возмущения.

“Третий тайм”

The Moscow-based artist Fiord has released the third album. As compared to the previous long play “Квадроколесо”, the new record “Третий тайм” seems to sound less complicated musically however
the lyrics turn out to be more direct. Still the album develops the statement which has been claimed by its predecessors: mecanical parts, authentic vocals, unique harmonies and lyrics.

Гладилин-Булгаков-Самохин – Снопы Параной

[SCL136]

Гладилин-Булгаков-Самохин

“Снопы Параной”

«Снопы параной» – совместная работа «три на три». Три человека из трёх городов. Каждый принес с собой своё мироощущение, переживания, взгляды на жизнь и окружающую действительность. Астрахань, Москва и Чита. В обычной жизни, «по эту сторону реки, там, где боятся прыгнуть в прорубь или колодец», вряд ли что-то может так плотно связать эти города. Но в мире творческих экспериментов расстояния и различия в этногеографическом факторе сыграли на руку создателям альбома. Плотно нашпигованная музыкой, песнями и стихами, эта работа стала итогом годичного обдумывания, примерки и избавления от мундиров, снятия и обрастания чешуей.

Boiar – Sete Bóias A Boiar Ao Sábado

EdP067

Boiar

“Sete Bóias A Boiar Ao Sábado”

Peça concebida propositadamente para radiodifusão n’O Arranca Corações.

Este trabalho pretende agarrar o ouvinte para um desafio simples que poderá realizar a partir dum qualquer ponto sonoro exposto; conseguir o auditor desenvolver uma superconsciência auditiva que o leve a emigrar para fora do tempo/espaço usando como meio para tal fim a multiplicidade das formas auditivas expressas. Quanto mais se deixar absorver por elas mais depressa apreende o fluxo e o refluxo das ondas sonoras em presença, assim como a unidade intrínseca destas no todo consciente (superconsciente), a isto chama-se Boiar. Arte nobre hoje em dia quase esquecida e pouco praticada.

This work intends to grab the listener for a simple challenge that (s)he will be able to carry out from any exposed sound point; getting the listener to develop a superconsciousness hearing (awareness) that will lead her/him to emigrate out of time/space, using as a means to this end the multiplicity of hearing expressed forms. The more we let ourselves be absorbed by them the quicker we’ll apprehend the flow and reflow of the existing sound waves, as well as their intrinsic unity in the conscious whole, this is called Boiar, (Boiar is not “to Float”; Boiar is much more than simply floating). Noble art nearly forgotten today and rarely practiced.

Boiar is:

João Ricardo – Synthesizers, guitar, drums, laptop and fx (i.e. small toys difficult to specify);
João Santos – Acoustic bass, electric bass, traps, concertina, hornpipe, synthesised flute, laptop and fx;
José Soares – Keyboards, synthesizers, guitars, drums, cello, anything at hand, laptop and fx;
Paulo Santos – Voice, acoustic and electric guitar, keys, trumpet, percussion, laptop on/off.

Mess. – Lucky One

[SCL135]

Mess.

“Lucky One”

Garage-punk band from Moscow. Founded in 2007. The idea was just to play raw punk and rock-n-roll as we all heard on New York Dolls early demos. Andrey worked in music mag and played bass in friendly heavy metal band. And suddenly understood – he’s got something to say. Each song is a true story about streets, girls, drugs and so on. Mess. played lots of gigs in Moscow, St.-Petersburg, Kyiv, Vladimir, Nizhny Novgorod. Some of gigs they can hardly remember. In 2010 the band recorded 1-st LP ‘Mess’ and went on tour. After long pause they returned to the scene with saxophonist and new songs. LP ‘Lucky One’ was recorded at exellent ‘Music street studio’, which was later – destroyed by city government.

Константин Зед – Музыкальные Вибрации

SCL132

Константин Зед

“Музыкальные Вибрации”

It seems that only art-punk has acquired the national sound among all the rock genres performed in Russia. This sound is peculiar and is not recognized by the masses. So it is highly underestimated.

Here is an evident example of debut work by multiinstrumentalist Konstantin Zeda from St.Petersburg in collaboration with Anatoliy Nikulin as a sound producer. From the very first seconds of the recording it’s pretty understandable that the album doesn’t tend to be modern. The sound stylization roots back to the rock of 70s,to glam rock Roxy Music’s sort as well as music hall. Melody greatness is performed with high stage/theatrical emotionality and punk energy though moderate one. The album at whole has a concept, in spite of the absence of the connecting line between tracks. The imagination brings back the story lines from soviet musical film about the XVI-XVIII centures. The point is that it’s not because of the misic itself, but lyrics as well, as in “Veronika”, “Sladkiy son”, “Luchshiy den'”, “Korol” and especially “Prizrak”. Friendly speaking I don’t know anything about the author’s intention but the soviet film collection could fill up with one more nonexistent film.
