Nine Inch Nails: “Tron Ares: Divergence" surprise-released

Nine Inch Nails have surprise-released “Tron Ares: Divergence”, a digital project made up of 44 tracks between remixes and previously unreleased material, running for a total of two hours and 24 minutes. The record expands on the original soundtrack of “Tron: Ares“, released last September.

Despite having scored countless films over the years — with a track record that includes two Oscars, three Golden Globes, a Grammy and an Emmy — this marks the first soundtrack officially credited to Nine Inch Nails within the Tron universe, for Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.

Meanwhile the band is currently on the road across North America with the "Peel It Back" tour.

On the occasion of the soundtrack's release, director Joachim Rønning had stressed the central role of music in the project: "Music is a fundamental part of the Tron saga. I knew they'd be composing the music themselves, so I listened to them during filming to get into the rhythm. They're so precise in analyzing every scene. It was important for Trent and Atticus that the music come from the front speakers, as if you were hearing it at a concert".

“Tron Ares: Divergence" expands that sonic framework with tracks left out of the original release and with a series of reinterpretations from producers and musicians such as Arca, Mark Pritchard, Boys Noize, Lanark Artefax, Chilly Gonzales, Danny L Harle, Jack Dangers, Pixel Grip, Working Men's Club, The Dare and Schwefelgelb.
