Daft Punk’s Tron Score Struggles | Music News

Daft Punk’s Thomas Bangalter reveals the surprisingly grim reality behind scoring Tron: Legacy—a sci-fi blockbuster that turned out to be creatively stifling. Initially aiming for a full symphony orchestra to blend with Disney’s grandeur, they were forced to simplify their electronic sound due to clashes with dialogue frequencies. The experience taught them that sometimes innovation must yield to practicality.

Now, post-Daft Punk split, Bangalter’s focus has shifted, but their legacy endures, as seen when ‘One More Time’ became France’s World Cup anthem.
