This is excellent ambient noise for hacking BTW.

  100%, The Social Network soundtrack that was Reznor and Atticus Ross project is my go to for deep focus work.

Didn't notice this before but their branding is actually pretty slick. Sweet domain name and the logo is great too The fact that they release music for free is cool too

  Trent Reznor is a treasure and all around great guy.

    I remember he could be a real butt head before getting clean. But he is undoubtedly awesome.

      Getting clean and finding happiness always helps.

  He went to study CS in college, so he gets the concepts of the software industry (open-source, having a great website...).

I love this one: "Back in 2007, Trent Reznor did something a little different with the release of "Year Zero". He essentially created a game...a mystery...a unique marketing campaign. This was an incredibly complex campaign with clues buried all over the world.

NIN / Trent Reznor has done some incredibly cool stuff around their releases before, for anyone interested I recommend checking out this talk from MIDEM a while back https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Njuo1puB1lg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Njuo1puB1lg

Came here to mention that these are two follow-up albums to Nine Inch Nail's original release of Ghosts I-IV, almost 12 years ago. The Ghosts album marks the first time Nine Inch Nails released an album under Creative Commons, as they decided to go fully independent with publishing their music at this point (after a fight with Interscope). Since then they still manage to produce and publish their own music to much success and go on tours. After listening to Ghosts V-VI, I definitely prefer VI myself as it's much more dark and chaotic while at times being peaceful and melodic. Glad to see Trent and his friends create another great addition to the Ghosts collection.
