=== Music === {{Main|Tron (soundtrack){{!}}''Tron'' (soundtrack)}} The soundtrack for ''Tron'' was written by pioneer electronic musician [[Wendy Carlos]], who is best known for her album ''[[Switched-On Bach]]'' and for the soundtracks to many films, including the [[Stanley Kubrick]]-directed films ''[[A Clockwork Orange (film)|A Clockwork Orange]]'' and ''[[The Shining (film)|The Shining]]''. The music, which was the first collaboration between Carlos and her partner Annemarie Franklin,<ref name="KeyboardMag">{{cite journal|last=Moog|first=Robert|title=The Soundtrack of TRON|journal=Keyboard Magazine|date=November 1982|pages=53β57|access-date=July 16, 2009|url=http://www.wendycarlos.com/other/PDF-Files/KbdOnTRON*.pdf|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101202105815/http://wendycarlos.com/other/PDF-Files/KbdOnTRON*.pdf|archive-date=December 2, 2010}}</ref> featured a mix of an analog [[Moog synthesizer]] and [[Crumar]]'s GDS digital synthesizer (complex [[Additive synthesis|additive]] and [[FM synthesis|phase modulation]] [[sound synthesis|synthesis]]), along with non-electronic pieces performed by the [[London Philharmonic Orchestra]] (hired at the insistence of Disney, which was concerned that Carlos might not be able to complete her score on time). Two additional musical tracks ("1990's Theme" and "Only Solutions") were provided by the American band [[Journey (band)|Journey]] after British band [[Supertramp]] pulled out of the project. An album featuring dialogue, music and sound effects from the film was also released on LP by Disneyland Records in 1982.
