Daft Punk's 'Tron' soundtrack gets remixed in 'Tron: Legacy R3CONFIGUR3D'
Late last year, French duo Daft Punk released the Tron: Legacy Soundtrack (which earned 3 out of 5 Bottles of Awesome from us here at SKoA), the soundtrack to the somewhat underwhelming Wal Disney film. On April 5th, a remix version of the soundtrack will be released under the title Tron: Legacy R3CONFIGUR3D. Featured on the album are Moby, Pretty Lights, M83, The Crystal Method, Boys Noize and more. If you order the album on the Tron soundtrack website you have the option of purhcasing deluxe box sets that include a digital EP with unreleased tracks, a poster, or a DVD or Blu-ray copy of the movie.
You can check out the tracklisting for the album after the jump.
[Album Review] Daft Punk - Tron: Legacy Soundtrack
It's been five whole years since Daft Punk, the world's most iconic electronic duo, has released a true studio album, so can the Tron: Legacy Soundtrack be placed amongHomework, Discovery, and Human After All? It is difficult to say, but the key thing to remember is that it is a movie soundtrack. Sure, every little bit of Daft Punk goodness that has been trickled to the public has been eagerly eaten up by fans, as it should be, but ultimately the album is a movie companion and that hinders the insane potential of the groundbreaking duo. The leaps and bounds that Homem-Christo and Bangalter have made in electronic music has been awe-inspring, which leaves their work on the Tron: Legacy Soundtrack feeling a little underwhelming. Despite this, the music they have created for the soundtrack is still very solid.
