A few new quotes from Trent on the making of Clint Mansell's score for "Requiem For A Dream":
https://www.npr.org/2020/10/16/92394...und-of-sadness
Requiem was only the composer's second film score, and he says he felt way out of his depth. A self-taught guitar player from the industrial town of Stourbridge, 100 miles north of London, Mansell formed the band Pop Will Eat Itself when he was 19. The group's sample-heavy style — a mashup of post-punk, rock and hip-hop — was dubbed "grebo." They didn't garner any big hits, but "like the best music of that time, you felt like you were in a club," Reznor says. "If you saw other people at that rack in the record store, or wearing a t-shirt, you shared some common insight and secret society vibe. [The band] felt like a refreshing breath of truth. It wasn't concerned about political correctness or anything else. It just felt like an interesting collage of music and presentation. It just felt alive."
Reznor liked PWEI so much that he signed the band to his label, Nothing Records. He says that in his New Orleans base of operations at the time, "We had a big studio with a lot of rooms for people to hang out, and it also had two separate apartments attached to the building. At some point, after we had toured together and Clint and I had become friends and drinking buddies and kind of comrades, I vaguely remember he was in some form of crisis in his life, and was living in New York and needed to get away. And I said, 'Well, there's an apartment here. Anytime, you know — indefinitely — if you want to stay there, there's nobody living there.' "
Mansell was transitioning out of PWEI, and had just written an electronic score for Aronofsky's first feature, Pi. He moved into one of the apartments, and Reznor bought him his first Apple computer and Pro Tools setup. "I remember him working super hard, and my recollection is it taking quite a bit of time, and just hearing peripherally about the frustrations and the learning curve — but a real excitement," he says. "And to my amazement, this incredible film pops out, with this incredible soundtrack. I was really happy for him. And suddenly he's a big film composer."
Though Reznor says Mansell didn't directly inspire his own evolution into a film composer 10 years later with The Social Network, he adds: "Clint would have given me the confidence to feel like it could be done. You know, it's not an impossible thing. He's proven you can do that, without 20 years of university studies and degrees."
I know it’s not technically NIN but there’s a Mank website out.

plus a more in depth trailer with some big band music

Also somebody on twitter put this great Zoom pic of them all working on the score, no idea where you’d get that from. The website just seems like daily black & white shots of working on the film day by day

I went to a Grunge article entitled "The Real Reason NIN is Being Inducted into the Hall of Fame," and found this gem:
"Perhaps it's Trent Reznor's affinity for high concept work, such as recording in the house where the Tate murders occurred, or as he told Blabbermouth, the original but discarded idea behind the 2005 album White Teeth"
Wave Goodbye, to yellow teeth...
Gotta say it out loud. :-)
Was this a secret popup show or something?

I'm 99,99% sure this is a version from Woodstock and therefore fake. Description says the video was auto-generated by Youtube via some algorhythm, not really uploaded by NIN.
A hint: whenever you see a description like Legendary FM Broadcasts/Transmissions, it's a dead giveaway of a bootleg of otherwise freely-available material. These things flooded the market in last few years.
NIN never played with Foos together, they did play once or twice as a double-headlining act in 2007, but the sets didn't overlap (like on the Bowie tour) and there weren't any guest appearances.
The closest thing to a live collaboration was Dave playing drums for NIN at the Grammys.

Would You pay for a NIN's streaming concert?
would you like one?
I would say yes but with some specifications
It has to be something new, new songs, or never played before songs, new arregments, maybe a crazy setlist made by fans, something special.
Kanye mentions the "Closer" video being among his favorites in the latest Joe Rogan Podcast @29:37-29:41 (the version with ads, if you're watching on youtube subtract 6.5 minutes).
Double yikes. Thanks for taking one for the team, @Jon .
Yeah I was just curious, I thought that maybe it being linked to the actual NiN channel meant the uploads would be legit. Unless that's just what the '.. - Topic' channels look like now regardless.
Edit: Yeah comparing it to the Woodstock version you can hear the very tail end of the shrieking guitar at the beginning.

It's apparently licensed to "Turnstile". Can just any fool download shit from torrents and profit off it? Seems so.

I'm intrigued, but I gotta admit, I only want to see Trent so I'm not sure if it's worth 20 bucks right now.
Can't see TR performing LOM? with vocals, tbh... But I can totally imagine yet another rework of I Can't Give... and some other songs of David's that TR hadn't perform yet. Like Always Crushing in the Same Car, a song Trent wish he'd write?
Somebody better reign Billy Corgan in before we get an 8 hour synth interpretation of Space Oddity
Got my ticket
Songs he could potentially play (and ones I'd like to see him play):
• Life on Mars?
• I Can't Give Everything Away (Farewell Mix)
• I'm Afraid of Americans (v1)
• The Heart's Filthy Lesson (Alt. Mix)
• I'm Deranged
• Subterraneans
• Scary Monsters
• Hallo Spaceboy
Maybe he could play these, stating how Bowie inspired them:
• A Warm Place
• This Isn't the Place
• God Break Down the Door
• Over and Out
And since Mike Garson is the one putting it on, maybe tracks he's played on:
• Just Like You Imagined
• The Way Out is Through
• Ripe (With Decay)
• Just Like You
• Trust in the Law

William Patrick Corgan AND Trent Reznor!
YES!
I had the awesome opportunity to see Trent do a cover (not Bowie, but Bowie-related) in a virtual performance during the early months of lockdown. Not only was it awesome, it showed how good a virtual concert can be. Very excited for this.

Many artists speak fondly of revelry and revelations that come with a trip to our continent, and John Frusciante is one of them.
"I remember when we toured with Nine Inch Nails at the Big Day Out," the Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist tells Double J's Tim Shiel about his band's 2000 headline set at the revered festival.
"I got to meet [NIN touring members] Danny Lohner and Charlie Clouser, who both wound up being friends and also helped me get started developing as an electronic musician.
"I think Danny Lohner was the first person to explain to me how you would have a drum machine playing a synthesizer, and Charlie Clouser taught me how to use a modular synthesizer.
"That was nice, being on tour with them. I was a big fan of them at the time and it was cool to be able to talk to people who knew what they were talking about."
Brian Redban wore a shirt on JRE the other day that i haven't seen before.
