TRON: Legacy

I was very disappointed by this album. I'm a big fan of Daft Punk and like a good and original soundtrack album. I expected a Daft Punk electronic and bleepy variation on a soundtrack album, but most of the tracks are the default Hans Zimmer way of making a soundtrack: big orchestral pieces with a log of big gestures and cheap emotions and lots of bombast. The occasional electronic tracks (especially "Derezzed" and "Troy Legacy (End Titles)") are great and really stand out. Of course these few songs can't save this album from mediocracy.

I knew this soundtrack and liked it back when it was new. It’s very interesting, though, listening to it now. Several months ago I saw Daft Punk’s Interstella 5555 movie release in the theatre and was enthralled at the colorful animation and music. TRON: Legacy is a very different thing. Daft Punk shows incredible versatility creating an orchestral, dramatic, and suprisingly dark soundtrack. I happened to have the opportunity to listen to this on a night-time drive and it was perfect for the occasion. So many great moments that gave me goosebumps - and other moments that felt almost out of a horror movie soundtrack. Such a contrast to their other work. Great selection… a surprise because I would never have thought to nominate this.

I think the 2010 Tron movie would not have been made if Daft Punk hadn't existed. It was just a perfect blend of visuals and sound that had to happen. Very cool.

Rating: 8/10 Best songs: End of line, Derezzed, Disc wars, Tron legacy end titles

Epic. Much better than I expected. 4 stars.

Real good

It's fine

Listened to this before, but it's just not enough I need at least ONE leitmotif from this album 3

Inte dåligt men kanske inte jättespännande med filmmusik. Daft Punk har dessutom något album för mycket på den här listan.

Film score, orchestra, synthesizer music, electronic. Me ha aburrido. Un 2.
