Tron Legacy – Daft Punk

Daft Punk consists of French musicians Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter and is known for house, techno, and electro music. They have also been known to wear masks to hide their faces during public appearances and photo shoots.

Daft Punk recorded the soundtrack for Tron Legacy and the music has proven so popular that a website was created so fans could hear the soundtrack. When you visit the Tron soundtrack page, click the logo in the middle of the screen for more information.

Daft Punk also has a cameo in Tron Legacy, playing  a couple of MP3s. Look for them during a club scene in the game.

Here’s Daft Punk performing “Stronger” with Kayne West during the 2008 Grammy Awards.  This song samples Daft Punk’s song “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.” Scroll to 2:48 if you want to specifically see Daft punk doing their thing. Their sound and their look = perfect for Tron.

You can learn more about on the Daft Punk official website or on Wikipedia.
