Dazed & Confused “ENCORE” Issue featuring Daft Punk

Well, I'm not a proponent of 3D in the slightest but even that can't stop me from going on the hunt for the upcoming Dazed and Confused issue with the Daft Punk feature. Anyone who knows me even a little probably knows that I LOVE Daft Punk, so if anyone out there knows of a good book store in Miami that has a copy of this, just give me a shout.

Info:
Marking the forthcoming release of the highly anticipated film “TRON: LEGACY”, electro-pop outfit Daft Punk recently starred in this photoshoot for Dazed and Confused magazine. Shot to be viewed in three-dimensions, the piece embraces the technological advancements showcased throughout the motion picture. Captured in Los Angeles by photographer Sharif Hamza, fans will already be aware that Daft Punk have produced the soundtrack for the film and are hence an obvious candidate for a TRON-emulating shoot. The entire feature will be included in Dazed and Confused’s December issue.

Daft Punk for TRON: LEGACY

Well, it seems that yesterday's comment of there not being much interesting content out on the Web was a little hasty as I ran into this little gem whilst browsing a couple of blogs today. Check this out:

With Daft Punk producing the official soundtrack to the movie, the team up between Medicom, the electro duo and TRON is of course, perfect. They worked on both Bearbricks and Kubrick sets in all sizes, ranging from 100%, 400% to 1000% and even larger sizes.

Also, here are six new tracks from Daft Punk’s upcoming score on the Tron Legacy Soundtrack. Over the past several weeks there have been some bogus tracks making their rounds, but these have been confirmed as you’ll find them on the official TRON website. Tron: Legacy will be in theaters December 17, 2010.
