Last week we got word of TRON: R3CONFIGUR3D, the remix album of Daft Punk‘s score for the film TRON: Legacy by a bevvy of dance music’s top producers, including M83, Moby, Glitch Mob, Paul Oakenfold and others. Now we get to hear the first two selections from the compilation from Boys Noize and Kaskade. The German producer Boys Noize takes “End of the Line” and adds some basic dance floor beats and extended composition, while the typically house-y, trance-y Kaskade does a more surprising version with a real old-school electro flavor. …MORE
