Historically, there was confusion as to whether the [[Soundtracks|soundtrack]] was credited to NIN or [[Trent Reznor]]alone, but this was cleared up by id Software designer American McGee[https://www.quaddicted. Most versions of com/interviews/americanmcgee] and by the game included 10 audio tracks from 2020 vinyl edition. NIN was also responsible for the game as standard CD-Audio files's sound effects. It is notable that this soundtrack contains [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_music ambient music], so the game disc could be played in a CD player which Reznor went on to explore further with the first track reserved for game data (which cannot be read by a CD player), ''[[Ghosts]]'' series and 10 additional tracks of musicvarious scores created with [[Atticus Ross]]. Some versions It is also reminiscent of the game include shortened edits dark ambient music of the music tracks[[Coil]].

==Vinyl release==
On September 16th, 2020, it was announced that the ''Quake'' 12" 2xLP would be available for sale via the [[nin.com]] store. Per [[John Crawford]] on [[Echoing the Sound]], it was confirmed that the release has the [[Null numbers|Null]] 0.5 release number. The packaging credited the music to Trent Reznor and Nine Inch Nails, and listed [[Charlie Clouser]], [[Robin Finck]], [[Danny Lohner]], and [[Chris Vrenna]] as having been involved. The final, blank side of the vinyl is etched with program code from the game.
Reznor also posted the following, which was later removed:

==Trivia==
Reznor became involved as the result of mutual fandom between himself and developers at id Software. He was a big fan of ''Doom'' and had sent tickets and backstage passes to developers, expressing an interest in working on ''Quake''.[https://books.google.com/books?id=pw0EAAAAMBAJ&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false]
[[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 [[Logo History|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. The game's readme refers to [[Nothing Interactive]], an entity that has not been to referred to before or since.
