Daft Punk Get Remixed On ‘TRON: Legacy R3CONFIGUR3D’

Wed Mar 2 2011 by Becky Bain
Daft Punk have scored the biggest hit of their careers in the U.S. with the Tron: Legacy soundtrack — interesting, since it barely qualifies as a typical Daft Punk album with its meloncholy, dancefloor-unfriendly vibe. Thankfully, the party can officially get started with Tron: Legacy R3C0NF1GUR3D (out April 4), featuring remixes of cuts from the soundtrack. We're disappointed that the French duo aren't remixing their own tracks, but we'll assume leaving the remixing to others gives them ample time to produce another awesome album. Track list below.

Daft Punk’s Anonymity Stays Intact At The ‘TRON: Legacy’ Premiere

Mon Dec 13 2010 by Becky Bain
Do you ever think the members of Daft Punk yearn to reveal their faces just so they can get a breath of fresh air? The French duo's helmets are the second coolest thing about them (the first is obviously their music, including the new TRON: Legacy soundtrack), but Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter must be sweltering under there, especially while making the long walk down the red carpet at their film's Hollywood premiere. Of course, we already know what they look like under that sleek headgear. One more photo of the clandestine pair making a rare public appearance after the jump. More »

‘Tron: Legacy’ Soundtrack — Most Depressing Daft Punk Album Yet

Tue Nov 23 2010 by Becky Bain
It would be a fantastic understatement to say that we've been looking forward to hearing Daft Punk's Tron: Legacy soundtrack since the project was announced last year. So there was no way we were skipping a listening party and Q&A with Tron: Legacy director Joseph Kosinski (moderated by the film's music supervisor and KCRW Music Director Jason Bentley), co-presented by KCRW and Disney at Apogee Studio in Santa Monica. The French electro duo was not in attendance, though they could have been there without their helmets on, for all we know. Jump below for highlights from the hour-long discussion and music clips from the most highly anticipated soundtrack of 2010. (Sorry, Burlesque.) More »

Daft Punk To Bring The Music Of “Tron Legacy” To A Venue Near You

Thu Jul 23 2009 by Maura

Fresh from San Diego Comic-Con, here are a few bits on the Daft Punk-helmed soundtrack for Tron 2.0—now called Tron Legacy—and how it came about: “Tron Legacy director Joseph Kosinski described his meeting with Daft Punk as being a ‘mysterious pancake breakfast in L.A.’ And yes, they were wearing the helmets. Asked if they tour in support of the soundtrack, he said there would definitely be Daft Punk Tron-themed events on the horizon.” Wait, wait… how did they get pancakes through those helmets? We need more details! [Movieline] More »
