To give a helping hand to amateur filmmakers, prominent electronic music artist, Moby, has decided to allow them to use his music in their films – however they see fit.
Moby is a musician whose scores are frequently licensed for commercial use. His 1999 album Play was the first album ever to have all of its 18 tracks licensed for use in movies, TV shows and commercials – which was a major contributor to the album’s success.
On his website he wrote: "Independent and non-profit filmmakers, film students, and anyone in need of free music for their independent, non-profit film, video, or short… listen to the available music and download whatever you want to use in your film or video or short.
"The music is free as long as it’s being used in a non-commercial or non-profit film, video, or short. If you want to use it in a commercial film or short then you can apply for an easy license, with any money that’s generated being given to the humane society. I hope that you find what you’re looking for."
