Dan_Rush Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 They aren't getting rid of the old loop as such, they are just gradually adding and replacing songs over time.They better not get rid of Listen to the rithem of the falling rain, the best one there!Have not seen the Sw movies, so have not heard the theme (though anything's better than what they currently have!). It just sounds, well, to put it short, a mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 SAW theme... In my opinion, it's not a bad theme for the film, but it just wouldn't create the tense atmosphere needed for the ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Rush Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 SAW theme... Thanks, and that does sound pretty good!. I wonder if the audio Thorpe used for saw was actually made by them?. A lot of the audio at thorpe I've never even come across anywhere else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 A lot of the audio at thorpe I've never even come across anywhere elseOccasionally, I hear some music from the park on TV. For example, they used to use the Slammer Raising theme at the start of the X Factor, just before the credits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 In my opinion, it's not a bad theme for the film, but it just wouldn't create the tense atmosphere needed for the ride.Thats exactly why it hasn't been used Thanks, and that does sound pretty good!. I wonder if the audio Thorpe used for saw was actually made by them?. A lot of the audio at thorpe I've never even come across anywhere elseThe Saw audio is a mixture, a lot of stuff used nowadays is produced by Thorpe. The queueline audio for Saw is an adaption of a track called 'Bottom of the Well' but the rest of it including the Jigsaw voiceovers were all done by Thorpe. They'd probably sound half decent if they'd forked out the extra money to use Tobin Bell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-Kid Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 The Saw film main theme would in no way fit the ride. Too lively and dramatic. Plus, the park would need to pay royalties to the track. We need a tension building track for the build up. I do find the queue track very dull though. The main area is fine. It works to be dramatic as theres a lot of activity around. I strangely keep hearing park tracks on TV! Griffon, BGE's construction program has the Colossus beat in the background at one point. On the "who do you think you are?" program they use Rush's 2006 track partly. I have also heard its 2005 track somewhere. Slammers old tracks are always on.

Jamie W Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 I think they need a theme like this on saw.Yes I know its from halloween but it would get the tense athmosphere perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamAusten Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 When I went to Thorpe in the Easter holidays, I was sitting by the little hot dog truck by Stealth, and a song was playing. It sounded as if the woman singing was saying "mamas little girl loves shortening bread" or something like that. Does anyone know what the song is called and who it was by?

Paul Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 The one song I always seem to hear the most whenever I visit Amity Cove is "Shakin' All Over - Johnny Kidd and The Pirates". Whenever I hear it on outside of the park, I get a flashback in my mind of waiting in the Tidal Wave queue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
