Tron:Legacy still lives in my head. I'm still chasing the music I imagined after seeing the movie/hearing the soundtrack. Also half of Daft Punk Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo's work in Kavinsky’s 'Nightcall'.

Check out Tron: Legacy Reconfigured if you haven't (you probably have).

The composer who assisted them also worked with M83 for the Oblivion soundtrack, which I think is also pretty spectacular.

The Oblivion soundtrack is amazing! Love it. I’ve listened to it so many times. I haven’t seen the movie yet. I should do that.

Ah. Now it starts to make more sense.
Yes, both soundtracks are amazing. But I wonder how amazing they'd have been without his input.
His name is Joseph Trapanese and I always wondered who worked with them on the album (for basically no credit) because, while I adore Daft Punk, very few pure dance music producers have the traditional-music/composer chops to pull off a film score.
I didn’t know until you pointed it out that he worked on Kosinski’s other film too. There are definitely some huge similarities, especially with the end title tracks.

You may already know this, but Junkie XL/Tom Holkenborg has done some great film soundtracks, too.
