Alice's Nine Inch Nails

Posted on Thursday, 12 October 2000 by CoBraLorD, source: Fragland
Gameslice continue their Alice-week, today talking to Nine Inch Nails' Chris Vrenna who made the music for the game[BLOCK]Chris: I have collected six or seven or eight toy pianos, two toy accordions, penny whistles, autoharps, zithers, fifteen or sixteen wind-up musical boxes, and toy drums. I augmented all that with some of the strings and creepy ambient background sounds. [American] wanted rhythms to be built organically, something I like to do. Alice has a lot of cogs and wheels and wood and doors and puzzles and things of that nature, so I'm building all the rhythms out of clock samples – just grandfather clocks or coo coo clocks or just the ticking, and everything, timing it so its a loop and creates a bit of a rhythm. And I've been building them out of ratchet sounds and door thuds and thound sounds and timing them all so they create a rhythmic bed, so once again there is no modern electronic drum or modern rock element to it[/BLOCK]You can also download some videoclips and see Chris Vrenna anwsering the questions :)
