Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross have become one of the most acclaimed and innovative composing teams in the contemporary film and television scoring landscape. Trent Reznor, famously known as the founder and primary creative force behind the industrial rock project Nine Inch Nails, has expanded his artistic range significantly since his debut in the late 1980s. Atticus Ross, a British composer, producer, and musician, began collaborating with Reznor in the mid-2000s, initially on NIN projects, before the duo ventured into film scoring. Their partnership officially turned into a critically acclaimed scoring force with the release of David Fincher's "The Social Network" in 2010, for which they won an Academy Award for Best Original Score.

Since then, Reznor and Ross have crafted a distinct sonic identity that merges electronic elements with traditional orchestration, creating immersive and emotionally resonant scores for a variety of projects. Their work spans a wide range of genres and themes, from the dark and troubling atmospheres of "Gone Girl" to the nuanced and complex soundscapes of "Watchmen." The duo's recent projects, as evidenced by their scores for "Mank," "Bones and All," and "Empire of Light," alongside their innovative contributions to series and films like "Watchmen" and "The Social Network," continue to push the boundaries of film composition, earning them critical acclaim and a growing collection of industry accolades. Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross's ability to meld technology with traditional compositions, alongside their knack for capturing the essence of the visual media they score, cements their status as pioneering figures in the realm of contemporary film music.
