This is HUGE! At least to me…
Moby has revamped his website (looks very cool by the way) and is starting a new feature called, “film music.”
and here’s the biggie(well, at least i think so)…there’s a new part of moby.com called ‘film music’. it’s essentially a function that allows independent and non-profit filmmakers to download and use my music for free. we’re starting with about 60 pieces of eclectic, unreleased, film music, but over-time i’ll continue to update it and add more music.
these 60 pieces of music can be downloaded and used for free by student filmmakers and indie filmmakers and, basically, anyone making a non-commercial* film, be it 2 minutes long or 400 minutes long.
if you’re a filmmaker(or are in need of free music for a non-commercial film or video)you can sign up and download and use this music for free.
i have a lot of friends in the independent film world, and their biggest complaint is that it’s either expensive or onerous to license music for their films.
so that’s why i’m making a lot of my music available for free use for non-profit, independent films.
i hope you find it useful.
i hope you enjoy the new moby.com.
please look below for the *.

*-yup, the asterisk. the music in the film-music part of moby.com is available for free use for student films and independent films and non-profit films and shorts and etc. the music is available so long as these films are not used for commercial(i.e-making money)purposes.
if you use the music in your film and your film goes on to make money: great, and congratulations.
before your film makes money, though, you’ll have to apply for a commercial license for the music. i PROMISE that the commercial licenses won’t be expensive or difficult to obtain.
and any money that this music generates from commercial licenses will be given to a charity.
this year that charity will be the humane society.
ok, i hope that’s clear. thanks.
Looks like encounter will be hearing a lot more Moby for the films/videos I make for Sunday morning. 🙂
