[[Image:Quake_Soundtrack.jpg|thumb|''Quake'']]'''Quake''' is a video game by id Software released on June 22, 1996, which features music composed by [[Trent Reznor]]. The PC version Most versions of the game included 10 audio tracks from the game as standard CD-Audio files, so the game disc could be played in a CD player with the first track reserved for game data (which can not cannot be read by a CD player), and 10 additional tracks of music. Some versions of the game include shortened edits of the music tracks.
Other members of [[Nine Inch Nails]] also helped to create the music.[https://www.quaddicted.com/interviews/americanmcgee] Reznor was also responsible for the game's sound effects. It is notable that this soundtrack contains [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_music ambient music], which Reznor went on to explore further on ''[[Ghosts I-IV]]'' and the soundtracks for ''[[The Social Network]]'', ''[[The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo]]'' and ''[[Gone Girl]]''. ==Track Listing==#game data#"[[Quake soundtrack - Track 1]]" - 5:05#"[[Quake soundtrack - Track 2]]" - 2:23#"[[Quake soundtrack - Track 3]]" - 8:18#"[[Quake soundtrack - Track 4]]" - 6:02#"[[Quake soundtrack - Track 5]]" - 7:20#"[[Quake soundtrack - Track 6]]" - 8:35#"[[Quake soundtrack - Track 7]]" - 5:33#"[[Quake soundtrack - Track 8]]" - 6:26#"[[Quake soundtrack - Track 9]]" - 3:30#"[[Quake soundtrack - Track 10]]" - 5:13 ===Alternate Track Titles===There are in fact no official names to for these tracks, as they remain untitled in the accompanying game literature. They are usually referred to either by the level they are initially played to, or by one of two fan created track listings[http://www.nincatalog.com/item. asp?key=01-90414] They can also be referred to by their track number, ; however, because the first audio track being placed on is the CD's second track (the first being reserved for the actual game data), this usually leads to confusion. As such, they can also be referred to in the format of ''Ghosts I-IV'' track titles (e.g. "02 Quake I"), numbers (e.g. "Quake 1"), sequenced untitled tracks, and so on.{| class=Alternatively, fan-made titles and game level names are often brought up when CD ripping/playing software looks up the information on the CDDB: #game data#"Persia Inversion", "Quake Theme" or "Main Theme"#"Aftermath", "The Life Beneath It All" or "Intermission"#"The Hall of Souls", "Conscience" or "Start/Whispers"#"It is Raped", "Freezing Vertigo" or "Grisly Grotto"#"Parallel Dimensions", "The Journey" or "Slipgate Complex"#"Life", "The Hammer" or "Underearth"#"Damnation", "Ice" or "Castle of the Damned"#"Focus", "Peace?" or "Necropolis"#"Falling", "Violence Inside" or "Ziggurat Vertigo"#"collapsible wikitable collapsedThe Reaction" style=, "width:80%;Death" align=or "leftGloom Keep"! align===In-game appearances=== {|border="center1" colspancellpadding="4" cellspacing="1"|+| ''Quake Original Soundtrack'Dimension of the Doomed''' Tracklistthe mystical past comes alive...|-Slipgate Complex(E1M1)"Track 5"|Castle of the Damned(E1M2)"Track 7"|The Necropolis(E1M3)"Track 8"|The Grisly Grotto(E1M4)"Track 4"|Gloom Keep(E1M5)"Track 10"|The Door to Chthon(E1M6)"Track 3"|The House of Chthon(E1M7)!

==Trivia==
[[Image:QuakeNailgunAmmo.jpg|thumb|right|Nailgun ammo.]]
A particular weapon in game play is the "nailgun" which can be reloaded by collecting ammo boxes decorated with the NIN logo. Also, Reznor was the original choice for sound design on id Software's ''Doom 3'', but circumstances halted his involvement. Former NIN member [[Chris Vrenna]] composed the game's theme song.
