"Mid90s (Original Music from the Motion Picture)" is a soundtrack EP by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross for Jonah Hill's film of the same name. Released digitally on October 19, 2018, through Reznor's label The Null Corporation, it peaked at number 41 on the Billboard Independent Albums chart.
The film features a selection of songs from the 1990s, particularly hip hop, which were supervised by Hill.
Reznor and Ross agreed to score Mid90s after Jonah Hill contacted them through producer Scott Rudin, despite the film's very low budget. Their communication was done solely via Skype. Hill wanted them to capture the "sound of the elation and the confusion and the pain of childhood," a theme that intrigued Reznor as it was something he hadn't explored with Nine Inch Nails. He chose the duo to see their interpretation of "warmth," contrasting it with the "coldness and lack of connection" found in their previous soundtracks.
The scoring took place in hotel rooms and backstages during Nine Inch Nails' 2018 European tour. Reznor recalled finishing the closing credits cue at the Royal Albert Hall before going on stage.
