Epcot music update

[TheDisneyMagic]

This is just a small update but I hadn't seen it out there at all.

The preshow Illuminations: Reflections of Earth soundtrack has been switched back to the original one from when the show first originated.

The new male speils have been edited in to this version as well and it is great to have it back, I always prefered this version to the newer version.

Yup thats the one, I was trying to remember if it was 04 or 05 you just confirmed for me it was 04. :wave: Thanks.

 

[Captain Chaos]

That's back? I didn't even know it was gone... LOL...

I love that little loop....

Very happy to hear this. I'm a big fan of "The Concertina Set" by Burach, and haven't heard it play at EPCOT in over six years. I didn't mind the 2004-2010 playlist, but I happend to enjoy the older version better.

Back for good or just temporarily?

Hmmm, interesting. I preferred the original, but the new "Club Epcot" version grew on me.

Though I will miss Busindre Reel. It was my favorite of the new loop.

This must have been real recent change. It wasn't the old loop back on 12/11/10 when I was at Epcot.

This is great to know and I hope it's not just temporary. I love the older version and just plain dislike the new version they've been running.

Does the Jim Cummings narration still mention the crap about on behalf of Walt Disney World the place where dreams come true?

What is this, musical musical chairs? :lookaroun

Very odd that there would be a reversion of the preshow loop so many years after it was replaced. Everything old is new again?

The announcements were changed in August of 2010, and I believe the "dreams come true" stuff is much more low-key than it was previously.

EDIT: "All of us have enjoyed hosting you at World Showcase Lagoon and we hope you have enjoyed Reflections of Earth, presented by Sylvania - a Siemens Company. Thank you." (As of December 2010)

I only like Flute Battle from the original BGM.

I listen to Busindre Reel and Our Life all the time when I'm driving.

Yeah but I would really like to hear "Good evening and Welcome, We've gathered here tonight around the fire as people of all lands have gathered for thousands and thousands of years before us. To share the light and to share a story. an amazing story as old as time itself but still being written and though each of us has our own individual stories to tell a true adventure emerges when we bring them all together as one. We hope you enjoy our story tonight: Reflections of Earth. (Blows out torches.)

Is this the version that has the Boston Pops' Appalachian Morning? LOVE that song.

 

[TheDisneyMagic]

Yep it is still the newer narration at the beginning which I still can't grow fond of with all of the dream come true spiel.

Was fantastic to hear though, makes a difference from hearing it on me Zune! :xmas:

I have 2 ideas for new narration either go back to the original or have this be the greeting.
"Good Evening' on behalf of Epcot Center we welcome you to World Showcase Lagoon"

Same here! Best 2 Tracks of the new loop.:sohappy:
