It is the first NIN material to be independently released since leaving [[Interscope Records]] in 2007. The album is a four-volume, 2-disc release consisting of 36 [http://www.ninwiki.com/Category:NIN_Instrumentals instrumental tracks], featuring guest musicians. Deluxe and limited edition versions were sold through [[nin.com]]. Initial response was very positive, with heavy traffic causing servers to crash and all limited edition copies being sold in just over a day.
Reznor confirmed on May 6, 2010, during the [[Htda Questions|HTDA Q&A]], that more Ghosts volumes are to come, most likely featuring the Swarmatron that was present during the [[How To Destroy Angels (album)|How To Destroy Angels]] recording.
:Nine Inch Nails presents Ghosts I–IV, a brand new 36 track instrumental collection available right now. Almost two hours of new music composed and recorded over an intense ten week period last fall, Ghosts I - IV sprawls Nine Inch Nails across a variety of new terrain.
:Trent Reznor explains, "I've been considering and wanting to make this kind of record for years, but by its very nature it wouldn't have made sense until this point. This collection of music is the result of working from a very visual perspective - dressing imagined locations and scenarios with sound and texture; a soundtrack for daydreams. I'm very pleased with the result and the ability :to present it directly to you without interference. I hope you enjoy the first four volumes of Ghosts."
