I always enjoy reading interviews with musicians I enjoy, especially when they talk about gear. Native Instruments, the makers of my favorite soft synth package, Reaktor, have just posted an interview with Trent Reznor that talks about his infatuation with their products. Not surprisingly, it comes across as an advertisement at times, but there’s some insight into his songwriting process and his thoughts on his recent experiment with remixable tracks.

The tech talk section at N.I. has tons of other interviews including The Crystal Method, Deepsky, and Junkie XL.
