Maybe deadmau5 could do it?

AriesT Wrote:This masterpiece trilogy had an amazing, already classic main theme and great song decisions, yeah. Almost everyone who grew up in the late 80s / early 90s will tell you that. The melody is still present to everyone who knows the movies. You cannot say that from... let's say The Dark Knight or most other modern Hans Zimmer (and his students') works. Newer film scores mostly are just made for supporting the scene, not being unique or having a remarkable melody for ages. And along came Legacy, which scores with the unique DP style of mixing House and Orchestra.

Let John Williams do it if melody is paramount. I don't know if anyone can argue that any other composer has churned out more memorable tunes. If DP should work with another composer in the future, it's him.

From where I see it, DP is just about the best choice for Tron. It worries me that some people think other musicians may do a better or more appropriate job for Tron 3, given that I believe it only gets worse from here on. IMO Daft Punk was a once in a generation occurrence - any attempt to make lightning strike twice will be invariably met with disappointment.

I'm going to reply to a few different posts:

I love the BTTF soundtrack/score!
I see what you are saying about how a lot of scores these days(like say Hans Zimmer) are good at accompanying a scene but not particularly memorable. I actually have been less and less impressed by Hans Zimmer, his music is often simplistic and Philip Glass-ish.
At least John Williams and Danny Elfman have done some particularly amazing scores in recent memory. I think Howard Shore's music for Lord of the RIngs was good but at the same time I'm not crazy about it.. it felt a little too fluffy at times for my tastes.

Somebody made a comment about how wouldn't want some random DJ doing the music, and I assure you we aren't talking about anything like that. The artists who we have mentioned so far are in a similar field of music as Daft Punk. Besides the T:L soundtrack, DP are basically a synthesizer/sampler dance-pop band, which is what Justice does, and also Amon Tobin's early works were sampler/computer based. Now Amon Tobin is more of an electronic composer, not using samples from previous music but generating his own sounds. He has done a few soundtracks for film and video games which have had different approaches, and he's referenced influence by the wonderful Ennio Morricone. Also Deadmau5 has come up, I don't know his music super well but he's more of an electronic composer than a DJ or sampling-artist.

Kaisergrendel, in response to your comment, I believe it is possible that another artist could do something as great as DP. When they first announced DP was doing the soundtrack, I had mixed feelings because on one hand I was hoping for something more esoteric and electroacoustic, but then I am fond of DP so I was excited to see what they came up with. And the result to me was a revelation, and I agree they nailed it. It's one of my favourite soundtracks.
So.. my hope, is to have another awesome revelation like that, and I am optimistic about this.
If DP comes back for another one, that's awesome too.

I'm sorry if this is a touchy subject, I don't mean to downplay the greatness of the T:L soundtrack. I've been listening to it a bunch lately, and also I have seen Amon Tobin a few times recently and at his shows, I felt like I was in a Tron movie at times, so that's what inspired the thought. Since I am having a big Amon Tobin phase lately, i will share another track of his, which I think shows potential for being appropriate for Tron:

I'll stop pushing the issue now

I do not think Tobin fits for a TRON movie. His style is way to experimental for a "normal" sci-fi blockbuster movie. Deadmau5 could not achieve the quality of DP, too. He is good but his style is always the same, kind of. Plus, he is not very good in creating melodies.

However, DP are also no melody gods.

Nevertheless, I still prefer Daft Punk, so does everyone else here.

I'd like to see Daft Punk do a collaboration with BT. BT has shown he can do film scores and I'm sure he can adapt his style to work well with DP. But, whoever works on the third movie, I hope DP is still composing the score.

I'm not saying I think it is out of the question that they'd return, I just think it is still quite possible that they won't. Just as there are many franchises that keep the same composer(Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Indiana Jones, etc), there are many that have switched from movie to movie(Harry Potter, James Bond, Star Trek, and.. Tron - thus far). Anyway, I guess we'll just have to wait and wonder for now.

You have my answer - if DP doesn't return, the result will probably be inferior. Just about everyone agrees it'd be a stupid decision not to re-hire them. That said, I also think Tobin may be a worthy replacement - just not as good.

NUKEer Wrote:Its should be Daft Punk anyway, they ve made a great OST in legacy so why change it in TR3N?

I know right, and this is far from a case of "if it ain't broke don't fix it".abortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

seelbach Wrote:I wonder if Daft Punk would want to do another.. that's something I wouldn't count on. This might've been a one-off for them, for various reasons. I could see them wanting to return to working on their own albums or something. Being a fairly pop band they might not want to become too strongly associated with a franchise. Doesn't anyone see this as a possibility? I do and so I thought it'd be nice to discuss what some other good musicians would be for Tron. I'm not saying we need to fix something broken, like I'm not saying who would have done a better job on Tron Legacy. I'm surprised at how up in arms you guys are getting, this is not a consequential conversation. It's just for fun.

Please don't feel like we're attacking you, however your OP kind of set the tone for discussing whether or not DP should be replaced. I respect that you can change your mind, but what you're saying here is not what you said there.

I'm sure all of us know there's a chance DP won't agree to score a second movie. We also know there's a chance they won't be approached to do a second movie, but I'd have grave doubts about a Tron production that dropped DP because of money.

While we're discussing who should score Tr3n IF AND ONLY IF DP doesn't return, I will echo your vote for Tobin, as well as throw in my vote for Skrillex, a dubstep artist. His attention to melody and rythm and compositional depth makes him an obvious choice for me.

seelbach Wrote:I stick by my OP, and following comments. No change of heart. recap: I love the DP score. I would like to see more musicians brought into this world. I think there are lots of great composers who would fit into the esthetic. I would be pleased if DP did another Tron, but since I don't count on it, I think it's fitting to consider the possibilities.

That's fair enough, but this was not apparent in your OP, just saying.

Many of us also think letting any other musician/band score this would be a mistake. While you mentioned you think it'd be nice to have other musicians score Tr3n, we responded by saying we don't think it's a good idea. I hope you understand how this fits into the discussion.where to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill online

Yea I understand and all. I added to the subject the idea of "if DP aren't an option" to try to get over the hurdle of basically everyone viewing it as DP vs whoever. Cause I get it loud and clear that everyone but me agrees DP is the only group/composer out there who is adequate/appropriate. I'm sorry for kicking a dead horse around, and I may be achieving the opposite of what I am trying to do with all the explaining, but I'm trying to demonstrate that I'm not a jerk or unreasonable, just trying to discuss.

In response to the suggestion of Danny Elfman-
That's an interesting suggestion because he is a good composer for symphony and I think he has a good grasp on electronic production... well I can't remember for sure now that I think of it, but I feel like I've heard electronic instruments in his scores. Like for paying tribute to old sci-fi scores with Theremin and/or Ondes Martenot. His Planet of the Apes score had a heavy electronic feel in the opening titles, but it maybe have been instrumental, not unlike Hans Zimmer's Inception. Anyway.. he's definitely one of my favourite composers. He does epic themes, Batman stands out to me as one of the great ones. I know he may be associated with kooky spooky stuff, due to Tim Burton, but I think he's caple of a wide range. And he is someone who could really pull off a Wendy Carlos homage.
