Daft Punk to score Tron Legacy

As a fan of Daft Punk and Tron (arguably Disney’s most provocative film), the inner geek in me jumped for joy when I heard reports that the robotic duo were teaming with Disney to score Tron Legacy (slated for release in 2011). If you haven’t seen it yet, here’s a trailer for the film, which looks incredible:

Eager to hear what Daft Punk was cooking up musically for Tron Legacy, I started seeking out viral clips that might offer some insight.  Just yesterday I found this hand shot Youtube clip that I’d be willing to bet my first born is Daft Punk’s theme for Tron Legacy:

Needless to say the anticipation for this film is massive in the electronic music community.  Not only did most EDM heads grow up watching Tron and playing the video game, but Daft Punk is arguably the most influential electronic music group in history.  Never thought I’d being saying this, but way to go Disney!
