TRON: Legacy Soundtrack Leaked? - G4 Exclusive Video

First Tron Legacy Image & Poster Unveiled

The interwebs were buzzing like a Bit without its Program this morning, after Cinemablend posted an article with purported leaked tracks from the the upcoming TRON: Legacy soundtrack, composed by electronic music stars, Daft Punk.  The article linked to a series of YouTube-hosted videos that featured the film's logo backed by electronic music.  A short while later, Cinematical posted a denial, saying "all of the tracks posted are fakes and fan created."

However, The Feed has exclusive video after the jump that might make you think otherwise.

Last week at Comic-Con, G4 was the exclusive TV outlet to be invited to shoot the TRON: Legacy party, held for the hard working, ARG-playing fans of the film. (Slight spolier ahead) It was held in a room behind Flynn's Arcade.  Actually, it was held in an incredible recreation of the End of The Line club from TRON: Legacy.  While there, G4's cameras shot this piece of video.  As you listen to it, you can hear the music in the background is identical to the very first YouTube video from the article which set off this debate, and was subsequently denied to be real.  This is raw, unedited video straight from our cameras.

 

TRON: Legacy Press Event From Comic-Con 2010 »


And here is the original track from YouTube. No telling when this might get pulled, so your YMMV.

 

Now TheFeed isn't necessarily making a confirmation about this being actual Daft Punk music from TRON: Legacy, however, it does make a compelling argument that what is being called a fake was actually playing at this particular event.  What do you say TRON fans? Genuine Daft Punkage or rogue programs from a dark part of the Game Grid? Tell us below in the Comments.

    While I do like Daft Punk to an extent, I hope they realize the shoes they are trying to fill following a Wendy Carlos soundtrack. She wrote the original soundtrack for Tron and it is one of the most amazing pieces of music ever put to cinema. Not to mention, all the other's she has done. I just hope some of these kids give her proper endorsement for her creation, and don't just butcher it like so many other sequels seem to love to do, over, and over, and over... With 150M, I would hope they can do something more interesting than a bunch of crappy CG and techno beats with lots of bass.

    Close the account for the "lixing" fool above me. He's been spamming almost every article I read. Come on G4 mod squad, don't you guys keep track of post from people who paste the same advertisement over and over?

    This fake has been around for months.

    The only real music is featured on the movie's website.

    I luv that Tron trailer 2 music. It blew my ear while I was in theater and it's been a while since my blood rushes. Sadly, it's only 4 the trailer or correct me if I'm wrong.

    The album might be interesting if the rest of the songs sound just like the Tron: Legacy trailer intro song. So far im having high hopes for this classic movie...

    Viral marketing.

    Post the real thing on youtube. Deny it is the real thing. Let people listen to it for a day or two then remove it. Profit in December.

    Buzz buzz buzz.
