The first true soundtrack by the electronic trailblazers, the score combined the duo’s usual electronic noodling with full-bodied symphonic flourishes. But almost everybody agreed: the soundtrack was genuinely incredible. While many celebrated its arresting, innovative visuals, others criticized the storyline and characterizations (occasionally, some reviewers did both). But as an album, though, this one doesnt stand out significantly.When Tron Legacy was released a decade ago, it got a decidedly mixed reception. These are solid instrumental tracks that fit the theme and mood of the film, and somebodys high school orchestra is going to have amazing fun trying to play them at their spring concert. Other tracks are also enjoyable but ultimately dont make much of an impression ∺dagio for TRON and ∽isc Wars seem equally unlikely to appear at a Daft Punk concert or on a home playlist. Its a very capable soundtrack, but its hardly innovative. All the same adjectives apply to the scores of many modern action films, and Tron: Legacy is no exception. The soundtrack from The Dark Knight also comes to mind: orchestral, sweeping, moody, grand. This is in all likelihood simply a major, unfortunate coincidence, but its nonetheless hard to ignore. The most obvious of these moments comes on early track Recognizer, which, despite its electronic flavoring, bears a striking resemblance to a certain iconic track from Inception.
TRON LEGACY SOUNDTRACK HD MOVIE
Its got the epic sweep and dark moods that the score for a Tron movie ought to have, both in terms of paying homage to the original and fitting the current iteration, but it also sounds an awful lot like almost any other soundtrack youve heard recently. Daft Punks orchestral compositions are nothing short of beautiful, with deep, nuanced strings playing in and out of synth beats and ambient distortion.īut when the albums not knocking your socks off, its pretty forgettable. Nevertheless, when the album is good, it is very, very good: Witness the epic downward spirals of ∿all, the sharp sonic elbows of Rinzler, the popping, blurry dance beat of ∽erezzed (the video for which has already attracted significant internet buzz).
It stings worse, it seems, to be teased by a moment of good music than to lack it altogether. The brevity of the tracks is a major issue here many of the best pieces clock in at a scant minute and a half, leaving the listener almost more deprived than before. One of the main high-water marks for an album, though, is how often youll want to listen to it, and, to be honest, I cant see this being in heavy rotation. To be sure, the Tron: Legacy Soundtrack is very solid, and it even has moments of greatness. Its still Daft Punks first release in five years, desperately snatched up by their ravenous fans, but when considering its worth as stand-alone music, we must bear in mind that it was never truly meant to stand alone. This highly anticipated release–researched, leaked, and teased all over the internetis, in the end, a film score. However, the key word in the title is soundtrack.

Sure, its a full albums worth of Daft Punk music. The challenge with reviewing the Tron: Legacy Soundtrack is whether or not to call it a true Daft Punk album.
