The soundtrack has its own website, people.

The soundtrack is out December 7, and the movie is in theaters December 17. You, meanwhile, can be sipping open-bar Svedka Vodka (the sponsor) lit by the glowing floor of the Hudson Bar as DJ Chino plays the music for the first time in public.

TRON: Legacy Soundtrack Listening Party presented by Svedka Vodka and Giant Step. Thursday, December 2, 9PM, The Hudson at Hudson Hotel, 356 West 58th Street; 212-554-6000. Entrance is free, but RSVP only.
