  Tron (Blue Machine Mix) - O.N.O.

Today is the 26th anniversary of the ground-breaking film Tron that was produced by Disney in 1982. The film was one of the first film to be released by a major studio that heavily relied on computer graphics. It has gone on to become a cult classic due to its computer game plot and CGI.
"In the year it was released," says director Lisberger, "the Motion Picture Academy refused to nominate Tron for special effects because they said we 'cheated' when we used computers which, in the light of what happened, is just mind-boggling."
The song I have chosen to post today is a remix of the Tron soundtrack. I'm not too familiar with the score to this film so I can't really give you specifics. Maybe one of you can? Leave a comments!

The track is by O.N.O., a Japanese DJ who likes to be simplistic yet powerful and sensitive. I think this track is a good example of that. I also think that this track is very fitting due to the heavy use of computers to do the remixing. Very apropos.
