Daft Punk is best known for its house and dance music, so I was quite curious to how the duo would fare in the soundtrack world. The verdict? The soundtrack is good, but they should stick to electronic music.
TRON: Legacy's soundtrack is half electronic music and half instrumental. Most tracks have both. The best tracks though, are the pure electronic ones with the low, cracking beat in them. Yes, I'm talking about "The Game Has Changed", and possibly "Fall". That's what Daft Punk is really good at.
Some tracks are more towards the instrumental side, though. It works sometimes, like in "Adagio for TRON", but instrumental music doesn't allow for as much repetition as electronic music. That's where Daft Punk makes the mistake, as can be heard in the second minute of "C.L.U.".
In general though, the soundtrack is really awesome. Very masculine. It has attracted many people to the movie, especially those of the target audience; including me.

I love electronic music, but was never much of a fan of Daft Punk really. That has changed... I believe they have found their true calling. This entire score is so incredible a few words cannot do it justice. This is one of those that I am glad I bought the whole album on iTunes.
Hanz Zimmer's influence and guidance are recognized in a few songs. In fact, it often sound like the hauntingly beautiful score of inception (Recognizer), but more... epic.
Daft Punk and the film maker both had a vision of mixing electronic, because of the nature of the movie, and classical and it worked perfectly. The music REALLY contributes to the mood and movement of the film. In fact, it is what made the difference between simply a cool sequel with awesome action scenes and mesmerizing special effects and a great enjoyable movie.
For the more electronic dance flavor, check out Derezzed. It even mixes in the sound of someone getting derezzed from the original film. And it is an energetic groove. I dare you to try and listen without at least bobbing your head.
The one that is most like a classical flavor is Adagio... breath taking.
Disc Wars is a repetitive harmony with a progressive build up of instruments that will blow you away at the climax.
Apart from these mentioned, I enjoy the entire score, but Arena, Rinzler, Outlands, and End of Line are probably my other favorites.
All in all, I thought it was the score of the year.
