Tron: Ares (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack): Album Guide, Artist and Facts

Tron: Ares (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack album to the 2025 film of the same name, with twenty-four tracks featuring music by American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails. The music was written, arranged, produced, mixed, programmed, and performed by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross and is their first film score where they are credited under their band's moniker, instead of their individual names. After Tron: Legacy (2010) composers Daft Punk disbanded, film producer Sean Bailey arranged for Reznor and Ross to succeed them for the next Tron film, following the duo's work for Disney scoring the Pixar film Soul (2020). Departing from Wendy Carlos's and Daft Punk's use of orchestras for Tron (1982) and Legacy, Nine Inch Nails did not use any orchestral material, aiming for a sound that Reznor described as "precise and unpleasant". He also felt that the inclusion of original songs made it so that it could be enjoyed as a conventional album by the band. The album features contributions by Boys Noize, Judeline, and Hudson Mohawke. The album was released on September 19, 2025, by Walt Disney Records and The Null Corporation, under exclusive license to Interscope Records. Being met with a positive reception, many critics and publications considered Nine Inch Nails's soundtrack to be a standout aspect amidst a lackluster film. Critical commentary focused on the context of the music in the film proper, the recorded songs, and considered comparisons to past Nine Inch Nails and Tron music. At the 68th Annual Grammy Awards in 2026, the single "As Alive as You Need Me to Be" was nominated for Best Song Written for Visual Media and won Best Rock Song. Tron Ares: Divergence, an album containing remixes and previously unreleased tracks, was released on February 27, 2026, featuring contributions by numerous musicians.
