Selling Music Meant for Game Mods?

Thoughts about this?
As an example, I wrote a blog post on my site the other day expressing interest in making Bandcamp releases of soundtracks for mods of games. The problem is how I can monetize the music AND abide the terms made by typical game developers.
The reason I wish to pursue this route of soundtracks: as much as I love composing, I've grown to realize how picky most upcoming game developers are when it comes to musical taste and whether it conflicts with the composer's ideas: of the offers I got for paid game music, only one of them let me go the direction I wanted to with the music.
