While it's $40k to actually buy the Tron motorcycle of your dreams, you can still feel the freedom of the open grid, thanks to the laid-back video that glitch-hop outfit, Blowinbox, created using free visuals from Beeple. The song "Megatron" is a fusion of synths and orchestral instrumentation that evokes the same kind of digital atmosphere Daft Punk designed for Tron Legacy, and Beeple's day-glo landscape looks just like a pack of lightcycles on the loose.
