Musician Moby has relaunched his free music resource for independent filmmakers, Mobygratis.
The site includes an extensive archive of free tracks for use by non-profit, student and indie filmmakers. The music includes Moby’s own unreleased music and remixes.
The revamped site also includes a community area for the 150,000 registered users in 212 different countries.
If a film project using the tracks becomes profitable, Moby’s licence fee is donated to animal charity the Humane Society.
Filmmaker Lucy Walker said: “I love Mobygratis! It provides a fantastic resource for independent and not-for-profit filmmakers. The music for a movie is the most vital, integral part of a film’s mood, emotion, and impact, but a decent soundtrack can often end up being unaffordable by anyone except big budget studio films. It’s amazing that Moby has created this archive of fantastic, soundtrack-suitable film for filmmakers to use completely for free. If a project becomes commercially successful then Moby’s preferred charity just benefits too, so it’s a win-win great project all round.”
