No matter how many other soundtracks we’ve covered on the site during the past year, there is no other soundtrack people care about more than the upcoming Tron Legacy soundtrack. Not only is this sequel to the 1982 film going to be massive in itself but it managed to get the perfect composers to score a film that’s so futuristic. Yes, we know you know. Daft Punk! It’s a match made in heaven. (Come on. Daft Punk + Tron seems way more fitting than indie ballads + vampires + werewolves.)
Well, now we have some news for you. It’s not much but at least it’s something. The Tron Legacy soundtrack which Daft Punk will be supporting on tour is set to drop on…

As if we weren’t excited enough about both the film, Tron Legacy, and its soundtrack by French duo, Daft Punk, super fans have another treat coming their way in terms of new material from the musicians. However, this time, it’s just one half of the band – Thomas Bangalter, specifically, and it involves another film. It sounds like films are in need of some good electronica music these days…

Ever since Comic Con earlier this year, film and music buffs have been hyperventilating at the thought of a trailer and some new music from electronic French duo Daft Punk in regards to Tron Legacy which is due out December 2010. However, as we’ve previously mentioned Daft Punk fans may be just a bit more psyched for the score than for the actual movie. Not only will the band be making cameos in the film, but they will also be touring in support of the Tron Legacy soundtrack.
After numerous teases with fake new Daft Punk and Tron Legacy-related songs over the last few months (including this one) as well as fake tour dates, we finally have a taste of some new material. It can be heard in the last half of the trailer which you can watch below.

It looks like some fans have done some heavy digging and found a leaked track from the film entitled, “Fragile.” Could this be the first jam to lead the futuristic inspired soundtrack?

We previously announced that Daft Punk would be going on tour in support of the Tron Legacy soundtrack, but what internet geeks and music lovers found on message boards in the past month was a complete lie.
The dates for the upcoming Daft Punk 2010 tour dates were supposedly “leaked,” and larger publications such as NME even started to announce them on their site. We at BeatCrave did not publish these dates and we’re glad we didn’t because they are fake! It turns out those dates were just a mere rumor, but don’t worry – Daft Punk WILL be going on tour soon.

First, we found out that Daft Punk was going to score the film, Tron Legacy (slated for release in December 2010). Then we found out that they would be touring in support of the film’s soundtrack. Well, NOW, we’ve got word that the electronic duo will appear as themselves in the actual film!
Of course, no one is saying that Daft Punk are actually any supporting characters, but they will be making a cameo according to leading star, Olivia Wilde. In an interview with MTV.com, she let slip out that the duo “were in the movie,” (meaning that it’s already been done) and that the franchise has “some ideas in the works about how to incorporate them into a Comic-Con event.”

If you can have a Guitar Hero why not a DJ Hero? FreeStyle games have created just that and it will be published by Activision this fall. In an extremely smart move the company decided to tap into the club hopping, DJ fan base that has gotten ignored with Guitar Hero and Rockband.

Hey, all you hardcore Daft Punk fans! We’ve got some awesome news for you even if you’re not into the whole Comic-Con craze that’s going on right now.
Remember when we reported that Daft Punk was hired by Disney to score Tron 2.0 – now called Tron Legacy – back in May? Well according to Movieline, while Director Joseph Kosinski was at Comic-Con earlier today, he stated that Daft Punk will, in fact, be touring with the soundtrack! Now that’s exciting because it’s rare for a band to tour in support of a mere soundtrack and even better when it’s one of the most famous electronic acts in the world doing it.
