Resource for devs looking for custom sound

Hi there!
My name is Vince, I'm a composer and the creator of the site Indie Loop Garden which has recently launched, aimed at connecting game musicians with indie devs who may not know where to look.
The artists behind the site are experienced composers responsible for games like Fez, Aiko Isalnd,Soulcaster and Hydorah to name just a few. We've contributed to events like the Indie Game Music Bundle and the OCRemix 25yearlegend (Zelda) project.
We composers figure that for devs, trawling through forums can yield mixed results at best. Do you really want to leave the audio of your precious game in the hands of a first timer who will work for free? Probably not. Thats why we decided to make things easier by putting our portfolios and contact details together in one place. All you have to do is browse through by category and contact the musician that you like the sound of the most. We cover everything from orchestral to chiptunes.
Furthermore, we're gamers too and we love what we do. We will work hard to find a suitable price point so that we can get involved with your project.
As if all this wasn't enough, we've even provided some useful resources for new devs covering issues like pricing, copyright and licensing.
Feel free to check out our site, we'd really value your feedback and welcome any suggestions you might have! Say hi either here or on twitter (@indieloopgarden) or shoot me an email at vince@indieloopgarden.com if you have any questions. I'd also love to know where (if anywhere) do you devs go when you're looking for a composer, and how much do you think it matters having custom sound in your game?
Thanks for reading and happy gaming :)
Vince
