Mix The Hand That Gives........

nine inch nails: current

Further to Lucretias mentions of the man Trent here's some more nuggets for anybody interested.

TheReznor (as nobody has ever called him) has now released lead single "The Hand That Feeds" in Apple's Garageband format, so fans can remix and deconstruct it to their liking. According to the readme file that comes with the .sit download, Reznor explains a few things:

"I've been interested in the idea of allowing you the ability to tinker around with my tracks - to create remixes, experiment, embellish or destroy what's there. I tried a few years ago to do this in shockwave with very limited results."

And here's info on what you can expect in the download:

"What I'm giving you in this file is the actual multi-track audio session for "the hand that feeds" in GarageBand format. This is the entire thing bounced over from the actual Pro Tools session we recorded it into. I imported and converted the tracks into AppleLoop format so the size would be reasonable and the tempo flexible."

So, although not a Mac user I have the tools to convert and will be starting work on an attempted remix, rehash or, more likely, tuneless unfinished lump over the weekend.
