This is one of my favorite soundtracks of all time. RIght up there with Star Wars and Lord of the Rings. The entire TRON universe that Steve Lisberger created is CRIMINALLY underrated.
I think regardless as to whether or not you like the movie, it's hard to deny it was one of the most perfect combinations of film and soundtrack to ever exist.
I am amazed other filmmakers didnt rush to use Daft Punk on future projects after this phenomenal piece of work
They did but Daft Punk probably denied. They don't work for fame or money
I don't know if it was ever meant to be this deep, but the score perfectly reflects the movie, being that they both are about the coexistence between synthetic and organic. In the movie, organic life forms emerge in an environment designed for synthetic life. The score is the same but opposite. It Incorporates synthetic instruments into a genre that is "supposed" to be organic (acoustic).
My thoughts exactly. It is such a unique and beautiful blend of synthetic and organic sound. The sound track and the movie complement each other perfectly!
I listen to this soundtrack ALL THE TIME. I seriously think every song is criminally underrated. Solar Sailer is such a beautiful track and I listen to it before bed a lot of the time :)
Sameee!!!! Soooooo Good.
Sea of Simulation is right up there for me
Sunrise prelude is also good imo
Tron legacy is one of the most underrated movies of all time and the soundtrack that daft punk did for it is absolutely amazing.
The world still hasnt grown up to understand this masterpiece. The soundtrack, the visuals, the actors.....the legacy it has given to us. I always will be pleasured for joseph kosinski and daft punk for the world i can run away from the real world and let my emotions rise
This is by far one of my favorite soundtracks and it should have been nominated for and won an academy award. Adagio for Tron is absolutely beautiful.
This soundtrack is what made the movie so great. Real geniuses working together to accomplish a masterpiece. The synth pads are so warm and creamy and blend perfectly well with the strings and brass. It is remarkable!
Loved this movie, sad so many people didn't and we didn't get to see more. My favorite from the album has to be Rinzler, something about that buildup just gets me.
I still don't understand why this movie didn't do better. It really is a good movie.
Uncharasmatic lead - the guys that played Flynn's son was so bland.... If they had had a 'star' or someone that made you want more, it would have done better.
@@euphospug I get why people want someone who could've played a more "emotionally involved" role, but I think the Sam we got was just fine. The story isn't about him, it's about exploring this mystical world through his eyes and they achieved this with very few problems. Had the protagonist had "outbursts" that people love in drama movies it would have taken some of the attention away from the world. However, you are right in that someone who could've added some subtle details to the acting could've helped, especially in the scene where he sees his father again, they make it somewhat awkward which is natural, but it could've used something more
It still made 400m. Granted probably only a 50m in profit but still... this was 2010 whe. 400M for a movie was still a lot. Disney canceled the original sequel after Tomorrowland bombed.
Solar Sailer is also my favorite, so I really enjoyed your breakdown of the track. One of the things I especially like is that the electronic part eventually becomes the orchestral part. I think it symbolizes the actual transition from the digital to the real world.
Another group that's succeeded in the film world is Nine Inch Nails, or Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.
Totally agree with you
"Solar Sailer" is indeed a great encapsulation of Tron Legacy soundtrack's unique blend of electronic and orchestral music. I would add, "Sea of Simulation" is, in my opinion, the most complete thesis statement for the soundtrack as a whole.
Looks so professional, on par with other channels like Lessons from the Screenplay and Thomas Flight. I'm surprised you didn't mention C.L.U., that's probably my favorite soundtrack of them all, starts with a electronic arpeggio and takes off with a soaring orchestral score with thumping electronic baseline in the background, resonating with the action on screen.
Thats what I love about the soundtrack, everyone's favorites can be different because it's just that good
I guess I have weird tastes: I loved this movie in 2011 and I love it now (I can't believe it was panned). Daft Punk is an all-time favorite EDM duo, but the TRON 2.0 soundtrack is my all time favorite album of an all time favorite group (I can't believe it's slotted at the bottom of favorites lists), and it is one of the handful of albums I find worth downloading to my smartphone, when there's no service and there's nothing else to do but put on some music and think. It's great that others appreciate their obsessive approach to combining dance and orchestral music--its grandiose orchestral parts meet with EDM and hits me in the feels in a way that other music does not.
Thanks for highlighting all these amazing pieces, dissecting them, and highlighting what makes them such incredible compositions. Was wonderful hearing you walk through the track list, and then bringing special attention to Solar Sailer, an album favorite that I figured is not very popular or found to be noteworthy.
Thank you for putting together this content.
Its one of the few soundtracks I'll actually play just to listen to the music, I'm a TRON addict but, the music really stands out.
"arena" from the score is my personal favorite🎚️ that arpeggiated baseline 🎹 and then the filter opens up 🎛️ to make it the main Melody is majestic!🎧👌
One of the greatest scores ever put to screen.
I actually really like this. It doesn’t feel like a fanboy analysis and your cadence sounds professional.
Oh man, would definitely watch an hour long video about you discussing the whole Tron album or the remaining songs
This soundtrack is my favorite from any movie, and my single most listened album on Spotify. I never thought I’d find a video dedicated to it, so thank you for your amazing work.
Great score. M83 did a great job with the score to Oblivion too.
This is simply one of the greatest film scores of all time
Daft Punk nailed the aesthetic and I got goose bumps in the theater from it
Loved it from The Grid to Sunrise
It's a real shame that more people haven't seen and fallen in love with this movie
I love "The Game Has Changed" so much. Glad of not being alone.
Been a fan since I was kid and the movie came out. I’m glad more and more people are discovering this world. There’s a 3rd movie coming out, a new ride in Florida, and a new video game coming out too.
Every Grand Prix you watch on TV for that five years or so, has Daft Punks music from Tron:Legacy.
This album that is so underated, is one of the most influential soundtracks when it comes to what has inspired other soundtrack design, mood music, advertising,... it's bloody everywhere.
I honestly don’t remember why or when I subscribed to this channel, but boy am I glad I did! This is phenomenal. Also, I actually rank this album higher than both Human After All and Homework. But that might be because I listen to the songs on those albums almost exclusively through their Alive 2007 album. The mashups are just god tier!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The audio in the film is awesome the way all the sfx blend with the ambience and music is wonderful on the ears. Regarding the album, it's one of my favorites to drive to.
It's an instant classic without a doubt, it's arguably a classic before the movie/album released
One of my favorite movies of all time and the sound track is phenomenal. I love listening to it while driving at night and just letting my mind wander imagining myself on the grid. So glad they put the love of their work into this. Gave me new respect for Daft Punk.
I think its a masterpiece. It's a soundtrack I return to time and time again. The film is also massively underrated.
When I was watching in theaters, as soon as Son of Flynn came on in the scene where he was riding the motorcycle, I knew this was going to be the beginning of a soundtrack masterpiece. Indeed it did ;)
My FAVORITE MOVIE and my FAVORITE SOUNDTRACK. Both bring tears to my eyes when experienced. Magical. I really hope the new Tron: Ares is close to Tron: Legacy and the Daft Punk soundtrack
I GLADLY appreciate this video and plus 10 points for how you described solar Sailor. Def one of my favorite tracks, alongside my top being “father and son”, adagio for Tron, & son of flynn
Thank you for this video. This soundtrack really deserves more appreciation
I have met them with TRON movie and both the movie and Daft Punk became my favourite to this day.
An awe inspiring mix of synth, classical, funk, rock and punk. The best sci-fi soundtrack ever made.
Loooved Tron lagecy soundtrack I listened to this on my bike ride to work for months in a row. Then years later got around to watching the movie. Enjoyed it I'd guess 90% due to the score
Son of Flyyn is my favorite...just gives you chills.
Tron is my favorite movie. Everything I love: motorcycles, Daft Punk/electronic music, and technology.
I have some Heavy metal friends that were the first to tell me they loved this sound track.
I was 8 years old when this movie came out I am 22 yrs old right now. I vividly remember watching this film with my dad and I had no idea what tron was and who daft punk was. Watching this film i was transported into another world with unique visuals, and amazing music. When I got an iPod for Christmas I bought this soundtrack on iTunes I was amazed, this film and soundtrack has a big influence in the type of music I listen to and the movies I watch. This is one of my favorite movies of all time and the greatest film score of all time. Ive seen this movie 15 plus times and i still never get sick of it. It's unfortunate that daft punk disbanded but their legacy will live forever. For the upcoming tron movie I am cautiously optimistic but in no way will it compare to this film and especially the score.
I love Tron: Legacy! Daft Punk's score made it rewatchable for me! Though, as you know, Solar Sailor didn't make it into the final movie but rather Sea of Simulation was in its place. Anyway, I've heard the track Arena at least a million times, and I can't get enough of it; it's like a fanfare to announce that a sports event is just about to start! The track CLU is just as cool, and so is The Game has Changed and End of Line, and End Titles as well! Flynn Lives makes the final confrontation scene bittersweet to watch. Kevin Flynn sacrificing himself for Sam makes me bawl my eyes out; the music barely even helps at all. But all emotions aside, this movie needs and deserves more attention!
I love this film and music with all my heart
I've always loved Tron Legacy since the first time I saw it as a kid in terrible quality on DVD, to this day I consider it one of the most underrated films with an incredible soundtrack. I'm glad more people are rediscovering this film.
Man, i remember that i stop the movie at some point to check the soundtrack. Is perfect.
Love the soundtrack, love the movie. Totally agree about Solar Sailer.
this Is such a great vid, shocked it hasn't blown up!
Hands down my second most-played soundtrack ever, right behind bladerunner. It’s absolutely brilliant, and goosebumps guaranteed; that moment where the lead-melody of ‘end of line’ kicks in is just plain insane, as is the score that goes with Jeff Bridges’ intro narration.
I love this soundtrack as much as Prince's Batman back in 88! great info!
Your channel deservers so many more views, awesome video dude! One of my favourite Daft Punk records!
Whoa, thanks for the Super Thanks zelphion! Appreciate it, glad you enjoyed the video
Joseph Trapanese is the real hero here. All his work sounds like this, Oblivion was only a year later and Tron: Uprising a year later and it's all Trapanese. There are obvious Daft Punk tracks on the Tron: Legacy soundtrack but I'm surprised Trapanese got such little credit for this work it was a true collaboration.
I love this movie. It's fantastic.
i’m shocked that this channel doesn’t have more subs, it certainly deserves them
I appreciate that, just gotta keep putting stuff out and see what happens
Love Legacy and Solar Sailer, but it never played that track during the movie. It plays “Sea of Simulation” during the solar sailer scene.
I wish both tracks got the screen time they deserved, but I’ll still listen to it regularly.
i'm obsessed with these soundtrack backstory videos you're amazing!!!!
Thanks, glad you liked it!
I'm glad to have stumbled onto this channel. I was shocked to see the subscriber count, these videos are great. Keep making more please.
Thank you, glad you like the videos! More will coming soon for sure
this is my fav soundtrack ever! i never seen the movie yet.. but after this i wanna watch it and give it a chance!
Bro Solar sailor is def the most incredible song out of all of em, this notion of a peaceful ride through the universe has been executed perfectly on this one !!!
this was a great video! This ost is so good, holy cow
Thank you!
I love this album, the music conversation of symphonic and electronic is just fantastic and in this film it absolutely makes it feel like magic. The vinyl of this album comes with a great presentation as well
i may be biased as tron legacy has been my favorite movie since i was 10 but this sound track has to be one of the best ever made its so fucking good
Dudeeee I love solar sailor, that's my go to song wherever I'm feeling stressed or just overall wanna relax,is just beautiful track
Why is your channel so small?! The content is so concise and well-put together, as well as showing high production quality :O
Appreciate the compliment!
Coming home from watching Tron: Legacy in the theatre, I listened to the whole album twice in the middle of the night. It's a masterpiece!
I love Legacy. The visuals and the music keep me entertained every time i watch it. (story is so so, but good enough that im still entertained)
The soundtrack is what got me to explore more melodic forms of music like trance, rather than struggling to make out lyrics.
Great stuff. For me, this soundtrack was also a "gateway drug" into classical music. But I'm still searching for classical music with the same drama as in some of the Daft Punk Tron songs.
Great movie as well, and every time I play this album, I see parts of the movie in my mind.
Nothing in classical music sounds like movies' scores. But you should definitely check out the Fantastic Symphony by Berlioz (there's a story behind it it's cool to know it before listening).
Also Prokofiev, Smetana, Korsakov, basically any Russian composer. They put a lot of soul and grandeur in their pieces.
I also recommend Dvorak highly.
@@ponykelly Prokofiev and Dvorak I know, but not the others you mention. I'll certainly look them up, thanks!
Great vid analysis.
great video
Excellent content. Subscribed.
Welcome to the channel!
Good stuff. The video didn't overstay it's welcome, and it's clear you weren't trying to pad the video.
Adagio for Tron will always be my favorite from that soundtrack.
One of my favourite soundtracks of all time
End of line is such a great song
i LOVE this MOVIE so much i watched it many times and i still watch it but my Favorite is the Music for CLU i love this character
I know everyone has their favourite track, but mine was Disc Wars. That track is legendary
Love this soundtrack. I have stems from one of the songs, they held a remix contest when the film released.
Would you be willing to upload those onto something like Mega?
Have it on vinyl I love this album
This reminds me of when ToTo scored the music for the delorentis Dune.
Nocturne is a thing of beauty.
It's pretty sad they didn't put Solar Sailor in the film. Oh well, almost all the soundtracks in the film were already masterfully crafted
Yeah when I was making the video I knew it was too good to pass up even though it's only in the credits
4:19 Why is it that when Sam turns his stick into a bike for the first time, why does it suddenly remind me of a Toyota commercial? I am not knocking it, I love that bit of music.
By the way I love all of the tracks (The Son of Flynn is my ringtone) And Derezzed is a masterpiece hit no one can ignore that. End of the Line is also a hit. And all others are legend scores.
The Tron soundtrack is one of my favourite albums from Daft Punk. Every piece is so well thought out and executed. They were the perfect fit for creating this soundtrack and the created the atmosphere which make the film work. ❤
best OST ever made for me personally
Great Soundtrack for a great movie, I honestly think you can watch the movie with no dialog and just watch it with the soundtrack and still get what is going on.
I love both movie and soundtrack.
Who the hell said it was their worst album? Homework is the one that’s probably their least liked album, and even then it’s good.
It sucks they separated. I would have loved to see them compose a score for an action movie that’s is influenced by John Powells style
It's one of the best soundtracks of all time. Period.
Bangalter did soundtracks as solo artists as well
yup
I beg you to make such analysis vidoe on my favourite movie soundtrack from Captain America Winter Solider.
My favorite sound track than any other. That being over hanz zimmer
1:13 anyone else think this clip from the ad looks a lot similar to the opening of the film
nice
My personal favorite track is fall
daft punk do NOT miss
Digital jazz, man!
:31 I mean, who the hell bothers with or even entertains rotten tomatoes or any unknown critics? Like siskel & ebert with me - EVERY movie they said sucked, I knew it'd be good & that never failed.
Tron Legacy was basically a really long music video for this album 😂
