Remember those disappointing remixes of Daft Punk’s score for Tron: Legacy? Well, now, when we’d pretty much forgotten about the whole thing, there’s a very, very good one. As Pitchfork reports, US label Vinyl International has released a new 10″ EP called Sky Sailor, which includes two new TRS-80 remixes of DP’s score, including an understated but affecting version of ‘Solar Sailer’ that includes new vocals and lyrics from Ariel Pink. You can listen it to below.
