...existing music in games: much of its soundtrack was comprised of excerpts from Tchaikovsky’s “Swan Lake.”While innovations like this were initially confined to low-profile experiments, before long prominent studios got in on the action. Trent Reznor, mastermind of industrial group Nine Inch Nails, composed the entire soundtrack for id Software’s legendary 1996 shoot-em-up “Quake,” for instance.More recently, Harry Gregson-Williams, Hollywood music composer, scored the 2001 game “Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty...
...finer details of his production. He sees himself as an engineer of extreme realism, and has spent the past four years figuring out stuff like how to create the most realistic reflections in lightbulbs and what ominous splatters of blood look like on a tiled bathroom floor.

One way that rock bands keep their distance from respectability these days is by shouting "F___" a few dozen times on every album. (Or even "I wanna f___ you like an animal," as Trent Reznor famously offered on one of his Nine Inch Nails albums.)
