Re: Which park has the best music?
The original entrance music to EPCOT CENTER is by far the most amazing disney theme park music ever created. I do have to say that the rides from the 80s-mis 90s at Epcot had the best score. I still know almost every word from the Future World rides.(the songs that is)

Re: Which park has the best music?
I vote for EPCOT, mostly because of Illuminations and the entrance music. I honestly don't care that much for the world showcase music.

Re: Which park has the best music?
What a tough question. I would have to choose AK and EPCOT, and probably give EPCOT the nod. There is just so much to experience at EPCOT, its hard not to vote for it.
Re: Which park has the best music?
Epcot for me, although I do like the music at the back of Space Mountain in MK on the little path to Toontown.
Hmmm now that has got me thinking is that path still going to be there after the new Fantasyland upgrade, if they take Toontown away what will they do with the path?

Re: Which park has the best music?
This time of year I get a little sick of the Christmas music. It's everywhere! Last January I was there and got to the entrance at Epcot and heard the music and thought, OK, it's nice that I get the Christmas music at the entrance. Then I got inside, and it followed me! Everywhere! I love the Innoventions music, but there was none. I wish they would "contain" the holiday stuff and let Epcot (and the other parks for that matter) be themselves.

Re: Which park has the best music?
Oh no, I was worried about this, I was so looking forward to hearing Innoventions! I love the Epcot Christmas entrance music loop, but it should stay at the entrance. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Christmas music, but I also love all of the other Epcot music as well. It kinda takes a little something away from the experience.kcarts wrote:This time of year I get a little sick of the Christmas music. It's everywhere!

Re: Which park has the best music?
I'll agree it's a tough questions. But if I had to pick the park with the best music, mine would be DHS. I love the movie themes by GMR, the big band sounds at the TOT, and the Muppet area music. Also, the music from the shows (Beauty and the Beast, Little Mermaid, Fantasmic, etc...).

Re:
I don't know I'm actually kind of partial to the music of Soarin' and Mission: Space. While I think SSE took a step backward with the recent update in terms of both the narration and music I actually like a lot of the newer attractions' music over the original pavilions' rather kitschy theme songs. It's Fun to be Free is fun, but it gets irritating rather quickly for me and I've never been a fan of The Universe of Energy/Feel the Flow. Granted, Test Track's "medley" also gets grating relatively fast I've actually requested it here several times whereas I've never requested some of the more original EPCOT tracks.mindflipper wrote:Tough for me - I have loved EPCOT, but I find it has declined musically over the years (newer attractions don't have the attention paid to it musically as the older attractions did).
Even still, can't we count extinct music as park music? Wonders of Life lives on through the likes of Forgotten Yesterdays, The Oh of Pleasure, and Celestial Soda Pop on a regular basis here on Subsonic as does Dreamfinder. Nevertheless, with or without extinct attractions, Epcot is rather easily my favorite all around park music.
I'd have to say that DHS is my second simply due to ToT, the Sunset and Hollywood Blvd. music, and Aerosmith (when will they stop playing Dude Looks like a Lady so regularly on RnR though in favor of the much more fitting Back in the Saddle and Sweet Emotion?).
MK is really only in consideration due to Tomorrowland for me and that's not enough.

Re: Which park has the best music?
I think you guys might be out of luck. I was a little upset myself. I agree BB, it should stay at the entrance. It can linger into the "graveyard" but once you reach SSE, I think it should end and let the Epcot music come through. It was also on over at the International Gateway. I was sad about that too. I love the gateway music! Funny aside, on my last day there the music finally went back to the "normal music". I found a bench in the innoventions area and just sat and listened and took it all in. And then I did the same over at the International Gateway. I was just sitting there, looking around and listening. People must have thought I was nuts!Mousekedude wrote:Likewise!

Let me know what you guys find. I'd be interested to hear if it changed!
