TRON: LEGACY Vinyl Edition Motion Picture Soundtrack.

When TRON: Legacy premiered in 2010, Daft Punk stepped up to take Carlos’ spot, crafting their first and only film score. The original soundtrack comes on standard black vinyl, and also features Journey’s cult classic contributions, “1990’s Theme” and “Only Solutions.” In keeping with the film’s sci-fi theme, Carlos - who had previously composed the scores to A Clockwork Orange and The Shining - collaborated with Annemarie Franklin in mixing an analog Moog synthesizer, a GDS digital synthesizer, and non-electronic pieces performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Composed by Daft Punk and arranged and orchestrated by Joseph Trapanese, the score for TRON: LEGACY took over two years to complete in a purpose-built studio created by Disney for the iconic duo.

The release marks the first one-disc heavyweight vinyl pressing of Wendy Carlos’ original TRON soundtrack. All three arrive on heavyweight vinyl on May 27th via UMC/Walt Disney Records. This includes the soundtracks to 1982’s TRON and 2010’s TRON: Legacy, as well as the 2011 remix album, TRON: Legacy Reconfigured. In celebration of the 40th anniversary of the original TRON movie, Disney has announced new vinyl pressings of all the franchise’s soundtrack albums.
