Marc Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Theres a new 1 minute or so mix which plays as the park opens now and includes a countdown. Sounds imascoreish with a mix of music from across the park including Stealth, Saw, Swarm, Colosussus and Inferno - Theresa also a video on the big screen which plays along with it, was a nice touch!

Themeparkwizard Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Thorpe Have Once Again Released More Snippets On Youtube, There's About 4 Snippets In The Video, They All Sound Really Nice And There Seems To Be An Angry Birds Land Variant Of The Island Theme (Just Sounds Like It) I Honestly Think Thorpe Might Actually Release The Soundtrack On A CD Because Of How Much Snippets They've Released, Hopefully That Will Happen!

Marhelorpe Posted October 5, 2017 Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 Pretty certain in that video it's a combination of three different area tracks mixed together, as part of it is played from both the Dome and Donut Factory.Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Believe you're right - somewhere between the 2:30-2:50 mark the Donut Factory music kicks in, and around the 3:30 mark the Dome music is there. Can't remember if it's been said, but Shark Hotel music is also played at the end of day too. The video made me cringe at 3:29..."If your arriving after day time hours..." - whoops!

God, how do they make a grammar mistake that simple? How does no one on the team that creates these videos actually say 'Hey, one of you guys made a primary school level mistake here, let's change it!' Truly stupid.

Kerfuffle Posted October 5, 2017 Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 I personally find it cringey when an entire forum goes off their heads about the slightest grammar error...so let's not go down that route, shall we? yeah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatever Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 Well, they're a major company making a childish mistake....we're just pointing it out. I'd get it if there were mistakes over something difficult like semi-colons; not knowing the difference between 'your' and 'you're' is silly.

Joester Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 Probably been asked a thousand times, but are we any closer to getting the music from the big top? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega-Lite Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Heard the new Colossus area theme on my fateful visit to the park the other day, completely forgot they had changed the theme and found myself standing there questioning "wtf is this", then it dawned on me that this is the new theme alot of you have been raving about, each to his own I suppose but I think it's crap and it really takes alot of the atmosphere (not that there's much left) out of the Colossus area.

I agree, it doesn't suit the ride. The previous theme was perfect. I think the new track worked well for the Lost city area, just not Colossus.

Marc Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 I wouldn't personally say that the music is taking away any atmosphere - I think since earlier in the year a couple of the speakers along the colossus bridge have stopped working - one these are back working so you can hear it across the entire Colossus area I think that will help a lot. On the same subject of new music - heard more of the new jungle theme at the weekend playing in pizza pasta, it sounded pretty good, I quite like how they've managed to incorporate the Nemesis Inferno music into it too.

Mattgwise Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Yes that jungle track is pretty good I agree. I'm a fan of all the new music just not liking the new Colossus and lost city track playing through Colossus when the previous track was miles better. I feel so much more of the old track could have been utilised in its new track and maybe I'd have liked it more. The previous track would literally have people humming to it at most sections of the track, even the non enthusiast guests. I don't think I've seen a soul do that with the new one, except for maybe the one main section of old Colossus theme that was kept.

Coaster Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 The audio upgrades around the park are great, but if something "works" and is popular, it's best left as it is. Colossus's theme was one of these examples IMO. As nice as some of the new audio is (love the island theme!), a theme park has to have different areas of contrast rather than the same or similar audio throughout IMO - something Thorpe used to do very well. If they ruin Inferno's soundtrack I'll be gutted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega-Lite Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Completely agree about the "Island theme" being used a bit too often across too many of the attractions on park and certainly agree that in some cases it's taking atmosphere and character out of certain attractions. Also it may have just been because I was on my own in a very quiet Pizza Pasta, but the theme in there was starting to wind me up. Colossus certainly isn't up to the old standard in my eyes and although I've yet to ride X due to the stupid 2 person in a row rule, I'm not sure that's going to sit well with me either. In some cases like the Dome and entrance plaza I like the new identity it brings to the park but I think the rolling out to all the rides needs to stop for now. Leave Inferno alone!

The whole point of the 'Island Theme' is that it is supposed to be identifiable, it was designed to be used across the resort. It has grown on me a lot, I was skeptical at first. If you go to CWoA, you will hear in most areas, their own identifiable hook if you will. Alton also has one, and was probably the first out of the three to do this, but they used In The Hall of The Mountain Kings, which is not original, but it works for them.
