MChappy Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 As my topic was moved to the depths of the forum and may be hard to see, here is a link to said topic. http://forum.maniahub.com/topic/10451-merlin-media/ Its got a link where you can find many different audio files from all of the Merlin Parks in the UK. There are quite a few tracks and you may find one that you dont have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Now that Thorpe are, to some extent, reverting back to a family theme (as well as thrillseekers), I think that maybe it's time to bring back the entrance music and end of the day theme. The Noise could still play across the park in areas which would otherwise be silent, but the return of both of those themes would be fantastic for families and would cost the park nothing!

Inferno Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 100% this. I'd like to see something better than chart music at the entrance, bridge & Dome, even if they don't bring the old music back something new would be good. Ideally I'd like a piece of music that people will call "the Thorpe Park theme tune" - same as ITHOTMK at Alton Perhaps we'll see this happen when they re-vamp the entrance in the next few years? The sooner The Noise is gone though, the better. StealthRider, Marhelorpe and BigBobJones 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattgwise Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Also agreed. Used to feel like you was entering a theme park hearing the entrance music and the end of day music used to be am awesome calming way to leave the park.

JamminGamer Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I made some playlists on YouTube not long ago that I listen to while idly doing something else (usually work!), I'll link them if anybody's interested but I can't guarantee I'll have all your favourite tracks on them as some of the tracks are there for personal preference XD Just put them on autoplay and shuffle and you're set for an hour or two Thorpe Playlist : Towers Playlist: If you feel that any vital music is missing in either give me a shout and I might just add them they're on a separate account to my usual one because of the Google+ switch nonsense!

adstratt Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 I have been trying to find a piece of music for ages. I have heard it I think every time I have been to Thorpe, in the dome on my first visit back in 2008 before they played chart music in there, and more recently the arcade. It could be a loop - it has a repetitive melody of what sounds like high pitched, dreamy sounding whistling, and I don't know if you have talked about it before but I can't find anything. Can anyone tell me what this is if it is a Thorpe tune? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adstratt Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 No, although that does match my (vague) description it's not the End of Day. I think today you'd find it playing in the arcade as I heard it in there on my last visit (June last year). Just this slow chill out beat with a melody sounding like someone whistling which seemed to just repeat itself over and over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveJ Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Hahahah! I know exactly what music you mean! It's not actually Thorpe Park's own music but one of the tunes played by the arcade machines to get your attention. They just repeat over and over.There are two of those tunes, the melody from this track or that other higher pitched tune which I don't know. I think the most prominent in the dome is the second one - probably the one you are thinking of. I was also trying to work that out for ages because it reminded me of being at Thorpe Park more than any of the park's own music!

Fred Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Do do dooooo, deeeee dooo dooo dooo. Bloody arcade machines. They instantly remind me of thorpe dome or towers valley arcade.

adstratt Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Yeah that's the one, I now remember hearing it come from one of the machines, it's all coming back to me now! Now to find out what the song is actually called if it is actually a proper track mind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 There's one from the arcade games that I'm sure says "Nah I'm just..." Don't know what the end of the sentence is though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really unclear on the arcade games though, which is why it sounded like something different to me. BigDaddyCool 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1hrisin Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Its because on the arcade machines its such low quality you can barely make out anything. I'd really love to find a soundtrack that they use in those machines someday. Its like a remix of a few songs sounds awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattgwise Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 I would love to see both the entrance theme and the end of day track back. And Colossus' music as it should be, not high pitched and fast like its been for two seasons now! Marhelorpe and Coaster 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
