The Punk are back ! I might go 2 see the film, not sure though tbh, but as long as Daft Punk produce a cool soundtrack, then i'm good.

I'm quite pecimistic about this stuff, I've head plenty of Daft Punk releases which have turned out to be fakes. I have to admit track 5 has a Rollin and Scratchin sound to it.

Just a soundtrack really. Nothing to get excited over in my opinion.

[rachbon]

a few of the songs sound really similar. 5 and 6 are alright.

no doubt it'll get slagged off. people need to remember though, that it's not a daft punk album, it's a soundtrack. so it has to be done in a style that suits the film.

Pasted from article:

As the Dec. 17 premiere of Disney’s “Tron: Legacy” approaches, The Robots are coming out of hibernation.

Daft Punk, the celebrated French duo who composed the film’s soundtrack and are expected to make a cameo appearance as themselves in the 3D sci-fi epic, will unveil the first new Daft Punk music since 2005’s “Human After All” with the November release of “Tron Soundtrack” and are plotting a series of public appearances in the weeks leading up the the film’s release. The duo is also actively designing and routing a 2011/2012 tour that will headline stadiums internationally.

Rob Light, Managing Partner and Head of Music of CAA, which represents Daft Punk, has said he expects the film soundtrack and tour will lead a dance music juggernaut worldwide. “This is going to be the biggest tour of next year,” he recently told the Daily Swarm.

The film’s soundtrack is due in November, although the exact release date remains undecided. A dedicated website for the soundtrack launched this week, and the registration confirmation reveals that the album is coming out through Universal (and not Daft Punk’s longtime distributor EMI). At least some of the distribution is going through Topspin, which suggests several collector’s editions and a vinyl release will be available (like the Beastie Boys reissue series). Several snippets of the new Daft Punk music can be heard on the film’s official site, while fake versions have plagued music and film blogs all summer.

Daft Punk are expected to make several in-person appearances in the lead-up to the film’s release: a series of surprise live sets at film screenings in major international cities, the group’s first ever live television performance (they performed with Kanye West on the Grammys in 2008), and a set at the film’s gala Hollywood premiere are all under consideration.

The group may also make several appearances will not, however, make any appearances (Daily Swarm sources have debunked this rumor) at “ElecTRONica”—what Disney is promoting as “the greatest nighttime dance party to ever rock Disney California Adventure park.” Set to open Oct. 8 on the Hollywood Studio backlot, “ElecTRONica” will have a food court, open air dance club, a recreation of the “Flynn’s Arcade” set from the film, and promises “live entertainers, complete with lasers, glow accessories and the hottest music ever to rock the grid.”

But Daft Punk are not planning a full scale tour until 2011, and according to Daily Swarm sources, the new production isn’t likely to be ready until late next summer at the earliest. The group debuted its iconic pyramid stage and light show at the 2006 Coachella music festival and toured festivals and amphitheaters on and off for the next 18 months, ending with a 5-date trek through Japan and Australia in Dec. 2007.

It remains unclear whether or not Daft Punk will release further new music prior to the tour, and if the “Tron” theme will carry over into the tour’s production.

Well this pretty much rules them out of Rockness next year but at least they are touring. I'll believe it when I see it from the right channels i.e. Daft Punk.

[rexclark]

I really hope we get a Scottish date on the tour and not just London (although I would happily travel)

I can't view the link.

What are the suggested dates?

[Poleski]

There aren't any but I'd imagine they'll only do a couple of dates in Britain and I recon they'd both be in England.

[dominofive]

There's a rumour doing the rounds on the Daft Punk fan boards that they might be plaring Rock En Seine in Paris next year.

That's at the end of August and combined with the speculation that there new stage show wont be ready till late summer, kinda rules out Rockness

But it's all speculation at the minute. At least it looks like something's happening in 2011

[preacherman_1]

there is rumours and has been for a few months that Soma have or are trying to book them for next year to celebrate their 20th anniversary year.

That could either mean massive one off gig somwhere in/around Glasgow, Pressure @ The Arches(which would be far far too good) or the Slam Tent at T... or that it is just all a rumour that doesnt come to anything

[rexclark]

Either way if it's 2 in England surely the other one would be Manchester?

Much more affordable for us Scots to travel there anyway.

No way will Daft Punk ever play Pressure or The Slam. It would be chaos. Daft Punk may have a slight loyalty to the Slam promoters but Daft Punk are a big business, after the Tron Soundtrack this will escalate further.

I really hope Daft Punk do either Rockness or TITP but I feel that neither fest will offer a deal that they'd want, but If they were to do one I'd recon Rockness would offer the best deal.

[blackg1000]

If they're not already the most talked about band in the world at the moment, they will be very soon. This is a taste of the new Tron Soundtrack and even though it is 90 seconds long, it's incredible. Soundtrack is out December 6th.
