Moby offers free music for filmmakers

If there was one artist who you’d have thought would get involved with music rights in the current climate it’s Moby. Although not acting directly for the benefit of music fans, Moby’s latest move is a bold step.

After listening to complaints from his buddies in the movie industry about how difficult and expensive it is to get permission from record labels to use music, Moby took matter into his own hands and is offering up a selection of tracks for free.

The free music comprises tracks from the albums Play, 18 and a number of unreleased pieces of typical Moby music.

The tracks are available for free from mobygratis.com. Moby has asked that filmmakers donate some money to charity if their films get distribution deals. Moby has also made it so that there is no way he can profit from this venture. He really is giving away his music for free.

All this comes just a few months before Moby’s next studio album is due for release. Expect it in stores March 2008.
