great initiative… although I can’t help but think that the idea of doing making your works available at no charge only ever seems to work for well established artists.
Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails has done this for half a year now, though he allows his music to be remixed and used by anyone, not just for film. He actually gives out the GarageBand files. (I’m a dancer and would love to have more music to play with for choreography, so I hope he thinks other artists’ use is okay, too.)
Swissmiss is an online garden Tina Roth Eisenberg started in 2005 and has lovingly tended to ever since.
Besides swissmiss, Tina founded and runs TeuxDeux, CreativeMornings and her Brooklyn based co-working community Friends Work Here. (She also started Tattly which was recently adopted by BIC)

Go Moby! That is an awesome idea! I too think that some karma points are in order. I wish I had an independent movie I needed music for right now.

i would agree that it only works for established artists, but in this case, i think that’s what makes it special.
we used one of the songs for a school competition earlier this semester. it was actually surprisingly easy to contact gratis and download the music:
