I look at Trent as the kind of man who is his harshest critic. Some people, even when they are great at something, even exceptional, they still feel like they aren't good enough, or what they do isn't good enough. It kinda falls in with the Imposter Syndrome, but the most successful and creative people come from that driving force, to prove to themselves that they are good enough, and in that effort, push the boundaries.

Imagine if Trent did audio books, especially horror or post ap type books. Would be intense.

Trent Reznor was such an influential artist for me. I remember listening to his music like a scientist studies something under the microscope. I had some medical condition that caused depression and I was so disturbed by the fact that what I was upset was not real. But when I was in the mental doctors office he had a photo of Trent Reznor on the wall. And he said that Trent Reznor was an artist that overcame depression to make wonderful. And if he can have a successful life in spite of depression that I can too.

Thanksgiving holiday, 1989. Before the internet... I was buying music the way you used to. A bit of luck and intuition was involved. You often couldn't listen, so you had to take note of the artwork, pictures, song titles.. etc to give you a better chance of finding something good. God tossed me a bone that day. I stumbled upon Pretty Hate Machine.Tile ✔ Flipped it over, saw Trent kneeling in pain, was a black and white picture. Picture ✔ Then I read the track list. Track list ✔lol. Completely unaware of what I had stumbled upon, I left the record store with my Aunt. Trent and I were united, my world forever changed. For years, Trent voiced and expressed what I could not, until I found my own. This helped keep me here... alive... knowing that other people feel the same.... Even if it didn't, this music altered my life for the better. I was sitting in a 1987 blue Buick Electra, (fake wood panel option) in a mall parking garage in Minnesota. Portable CD to tape converter cable lol. Then it happened. Something I Can Never Have... That was the first NIN I ever heard. I gave me the chills... Thanks power higher than me.

Trent Reznor is a 'True' genius. His music is timeless yet completely in the moment and very "now' feeling. He's been an inspiration to me since I was a kid and I heard Pretty Hate Machine and it spoke to me both musically and lyrically. I would love to be a fly on the wall during the making of one of his albums or scores. Just to see his (as well as Atticus's) approach first hand would be life changing. I just really hope he continues to make music for as long as possible. I know that's a selfish request but his music is just so important to me and I know i'm not the only one. Thanks to Moog for helping him find that feeling/sound when he needs it because it translates to greatness.

Trent is such a huge inspiration to many of us for so many reasons. Thank you Moog and Trent.

The man, the myth, the legend: Trent Reznor. A musical mastermind genius who I have always had great respect for.

Oh shit. He's just as articulate and intelligent as I was afraid he was. The swatches of sound this guy lays down together is just mind blowing. By the way, the interviewer did a great job. Trent started out like, "Ok, how honest am I going to be with this guy..." ( or woman) Whatever an interviewer does to stay out of the way and draw out his subject, this guy did.

What an incredibly articulate and insightful man. This is also the best homage to the Moog synthesizer that I have ever seen. The creepy music in the background just added such a dramatic effect to the dialog.

He did the scoring for Gone Girl, just amazing stuff. Truly elevated the movie.

That synth room looks amazing. Trent is an incredible talent. Discovered Nine Inch Nails in 1994

I don't play an instrument or care about synthesizers, but I was hanging on every word.

What an articulate, down to earth real human being. Easy to see why Charlie Clouser has so much praise for him.

Trent is a genius, his music is beyond any other music in this world.

My husband and I became huge Reznor fans after we saw a NIN concert with our 16 year old daughter and her friends in 1995. She and her high school sweetheart were such huge fans they named their son Trent (middle name). When our grandson was a baby, we would watch him when they would fly to various cities to see NIN. My son-in-law spotted Reznor one morning in the airport and actually spoke to him, telling him he’s a huge fan. Our daughter was too much in awe that she retreated and couldn’t say a word. They said Trent was sweet and gracious and just authentically nice. He may not know this but he also has fans who are grandparents in their sixties.....our favorite concert was Bowie and NIN. “Burn” for the movie “Natural Born Killers” was pure genius, as are all of his masterpieces.

Love the way he points out personality in each piece of equipment. True musician.

The music backing the interview makes it sound like some horror movie and he's about to reveal some really crazy twist that's gonna blow everyone's mind.

I was the roadie for a garage band in late 70's that placed a classified ad for a keyboard player and Trent showed up for the audition and IIRC he was too young to drive at that time and he was dropped off by his grandparent. In short order the lead singer was gone and Trent was fronting it. I remember the time when he showed up with the Prodigy and said "listen to this". Over the next few years Trent and the band spent countless hours in my basement studio making demos on a 4-channel Teac open-reel. We were so poor that we'd spend weeks making some songs on the sole 10.5" master tape and then dump them to cassettes for our cars and THEN overwrite the master tape with new recordings. Neither I nor the other band mates can find a single cassette because they are forever buried in the glove compartments of old Chevy Novas and other POS junkers. They would have made a killer NIN "basement tapes" triple album. Oh well. BTW, the talent was obvious on the first day he auditioned in Pat's (bass player) garage.

Unique, Tren Reznor is a person that i look up to as a muscisian since the 90s. I don't get whta's to dislike when someone like him is sharing knowledge and experiences. Greetings from Mexico.

Trent is a true inspiration for me, he got me into creating an industrial sound, mixing rock/metal with electronic music is my dream genre to make

I don’t know where I’d be without Trent’s talent. Never disappoints and just keeps getting better and better. His music has made a huge impact on me over the years and helped me out of some pretty dark spaces in the corners of my head.

Trent is a master producer and composer of dark sounds. Also like the brooding soundscapes of other artists like Massive Attack, Portishead, Unkle, Gary Numan, Tricky, Atoms For Peace, Allflaws

Trent struggled so much with addiction and depression ..he’s my hero. He seems at peace, he has a beautiful family, and he continues to create amazing work.

Trent’s communication skills are way above average. I could have sat for a couple hours listening to him talk about something he’s passionate and knowledgeable of.

I'd love to see more collaborations with Trent Reznor.

I can remember being a little kid sneaking to stay up late so I could watch headbangers ball, back when I was just starting to figure out what kind of music I liked as opposed to what my parents played. I can remember the very first time I ever saw the video to head like a hole and at that moment I knew that this was the coolest shit I had ever seen in my life.

This is fantastic. I watched a documentary once about Bob Moog and he was describing the elaborate circuitry he designs inside his synyhs by comparing it to tending to his flower garden. I remember thinking, "Wow, this guy is such a genius complex circuits and gardening have similarities." It was hard for me to wrap my head around but I thought it was the coolest way I've ever heard a scientist describe his process in such an organic way.

the music in the background remember me the "Quake" score he made more than 20 years ago. very good electronic musician.

Most intense 11 minutes and 28 seconds of my life. JEEZ!

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched this..

The dude's ah genius, hearing him articulate here then mash-up that with all the concerts I've attended, just bloody brilliant.

I still can’t wrap my mind around the fact that we use electricity to produce these amazing sounds. It’s so fascinating to me.

The entire time he spoke with the bass line and sfx over his voice, I counted down the measure when the drum and kick would come in. Jokes aside, very inspirational

Extremely intelligent, creative musician. Saw NIN back in early 2000 and was totally amazed the effort he places into his music.Debut NIN and Ghosts are truly works of art.

PURE GOLD! Thank You Trent! Your thoughts have generated So Many ideas.

Whenever I go back to listening to pretty hate machine, I'm always astounded by Trents music production prowess. He uses every production trick in the book on that album. Not only that, but the crazy thing is, the album has a strange almost pop sensibility to it. How can I put it? Its catchy as hell! Much respect to this massively talented man from one fellow synth head to another.

I love it when he says I'm Trent Reznor and I'm NIN.

Imagine being able to say "Im Trent Reznor"

Wow, thanks for the fantastic video, Moog! Definitely the best interview I've ever seen or read with Trent with regards to the instrumental side of his music creation. Not to mention all the gear eye-candy; my gosh, what a collection! And as if I didn't already want a Minimoog badly enough, to then hear Trent refer to it as having been _indispensable_ to him since the beginning!

Absolutely loved this interview. This man is in command of his creativity and knowledge of his instruments. What an example to any artist.

I feel like Trent and I were big chillin in some medieval monestary, somewhere, composing the f out of some ethereally hard gregorian duets ❤🙏🏽💥

always loved Trent. genius.

By far the humblest interview I believe I've ever watched. But being a similar electronics nut, love the revealing of his attachments and reasoning to specific instruments and how to evoke emotional responses based on their capabilities as you master each instrument. That is an excellent teaching point.

Trent’s grandparents should get a fucking Grammy for buying him that synthesizer. I love you, Mr and Mrs Reznor.

Reznor for president

+Matthew Paluch I think he's very highly rated. One of the best musicians we've seen. I think a better term would be "underexposed". Almost nobody knows who he is. There's too much shitty music in the mainstream for the public to discover his greatness.

+Matthew Paluch I think he's one of the best musicians out there today, but I can hardly consider him underrated. Everyone knows he's one of the best.

Love you so much, Trent Reznor. Fantastic video.

Not a single thought or emotion can get past Trent’s intellect without it being fully broken down and expressed to the very core of its meaning and expressed with effortless eloquence. All within a single sentence. His words are almost literal music compositions…….🤯

Holy fuck, Thank you Moog for uploading this, i never listened to NiN, but Mr Reznor just said something that has helped me more than any advice I've received in my life. Thank you !!!! Now I need to go make something on my moog voyager XL :D

Trent Reznor!!! Interview! Yes please and thank you! 🙏His music got me through years of stuff...he is timeless and his music is in my top 5. Period. Years later I still go back to listen to his stuff, depending on what I am going through or feeling. Let the music have the darkness and lift that weight off your back...and smile with the good stuff and let it intensify that good feeling. Everything has its reason for existing. Love #NIN.

Trent you're an amazing legend. thanks for sharing. great work.
