Daft Punk, Touring, Tron, And The New Lightcycle

Daft Punk has recorded at least 24 new tracks for the upcoming Tron film (now called Tron Legacy, formerly TRON 2, TR2N, etc…). You can read the initial announcement of that here.

You already knew that much.

The big update comes from Comic-Con 2009, where the new Tron Lightcycle was revealed. Listen to the music in the background, it just may well be one of the new Daft Punk tracks cut to appear in the new film.

There are rumors flying around that the french duo will be touring in support of the new material as well, though director Joseph Kosinski simply stated that there would be some Tron-themed events for Daft Punk on the horizon. Whether that’s touring our not is yet to be seen.

And about the Lightcycle: I want one.

Geek out.
