Track 16, “Rectifier,” can be compared to a controlled storm it is a rigid, military-like piece building to a buzz of noise that has listeners anxious about the next turn of both the movie and the song. The more action involved, the more exceptional the songs. The soundtrack is noteworthy because of its individual tracks that mesmerize listeners – in short, the tracks that sound most typical of Daft Punk. Despite the confinement to a scripted story, however, “TRON: Legacy” is good enough to work as a stand-alone album, not just an accompaniment to another piece. The album is less explosive, moodier, building slowly to a crescendo as does the film each particular song reflects the intensity behind a single line of dialogue and enhances it, instead of attempting to create that feeling from the ground up. “TRON: Legacy” is first and foremost a soundtrack to a movie, and to expect the same never-ending intensity as a typical Daft Punk piece would be naïve. As the pair got older, their music get better, and “TRON: Legacy” is hardly an exception to the rule. The veteran duo leapt into the spotlight in the late 20th century and never looked back, with massive hits like “Technologic” and “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” on the radio and sampled in their contemporaries’ works. However, where amateurs might fail, Daft Punk manages to create an impressive album yet again, disregarding a few minor setbacks.ĭisney specifically recruited Daft Punk – real names Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter – for the soundtrack, which comes as no surprise. As an odd blend of two completely different fields – electronic and classical music – the soundtrack had the potential to fall completely flat. Like the movie of the same name, the album is an innovative piece of technical work in a growing field. In doubt? Listen to the “ TRON: Legacy ” soundtrack, composed by French duo Daft Punk.
