Summary

Our latest guests on Soundtracking are Joachim Rønning and Jared Leto, respectively the director and star in the latest installment of the Tron series, Ares. In it, two rival companies compete to harness AI technology for very different reasons, with Jared's character from the digital realm entering the real world on the instruction of his programmer with, well, consequences! Tron: Ares has been scored by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross in their Nine Inch Nails guise, and it is an absolutely banging piece of work.

1:34.2

So for me, no two conversations feel the same.

1:37.7

Our latest guests on soundtracking, we welcome back in fact.
