Each pavillion has their own loop..The central hub and the outer parts was only the Innoventions loop being played..Shown here in red..The further you went into a pavillion you would then hear their loop. MouseGear too had it's own loop.
Again, as I mentioned if they had done 3 distinct loops for each side it would have worked really well to differentiate the sides and make it more dynamic..But, unless anything changes were stuck with this..

This is what I'm talking about! Celebration should have the one that is in use now whereas Discovery and Nature get a different composition still acknowledging the same theme..Kind of how the 2003 loop did using the Legacy theme throughout it's loop..

Fairly confident Imagination’s has been gone for a little bit now, but I may have just not kept an ear open enough. I know the restroom there still plays the original loop, which is all that really matters to me

It plays in the pavillion entryway and lobby area..Fairly confident Imagination’s has been gone for a little bit now, but I may have just not kept an ear open enough. I know the restroom there still plays the original loop, which is all that really matters to me

Right but it used to play out by the sign for the pavilion, same for the Lands loop as well. Really, the Lands exterior loop is completely gone.

I had thought it played in the dining area mostly and to the right side between The Seas and The land where they park the strollers.

While I whole heartedly welcome back genuine MELODY to EPCOT (thanks to this lovely new BGM), I really think they should do separate neighborhood loops.
There is still so much musicality to EPCOT that can be explored by using themes from different pavilions in each respective neighborhood. And to continue the history of bringing some retro/legacy themes as Easter eggs a la the Innoventions loop.

I thought the interior loop was the usual airy one that used bits of soundtracks from movies? I know that's still in there. As far as the stroller area, not sure. I'll be in the park next month so I'll check.
I didn't hear the synthy Land exterior loop anywhere but that could be because they really have the new Celebration loop turned up loud.
I’m listening to the loop right now. It’s fine … for an aquarium or background music in a zoo somewhere. For Epcot? Awful choice. Nondescript and bland.
ETA: Maybe it’s actually perfect for the new vibe. Bland and nondescript. Just like Bob.

Yep, The Land’s interior loop is still playing as normal. The old exterior loop has been gone for a few years, not playing anywhere.

agree, nice but forgettable. Which is a real shame when you use to walk into Epcot and you knew and felt like you were in Epcot,,,now could be anywhere.

That's the problem I have with Luminious and Harmonious.. vs Epcot Forever and Illuminations ROE which were prime examples of timeless Epcot never tired how many times you hear.

Yeah, I actually like the direction they went with these loops (still unsure if there's actually a difference in the loop for the entrance, new planter area, and perimeters), but this is kind of a problem. All of the loops or areas use the new Epcot jingle or whatever you call it over... and over. I feel it should be limited to the entrance plaza and planter area.

Monotonous. That's the word you're looking for. It's beautiful music but it just needs something else added. Pavilion themes maybe?

Exactly. Take the IOA entrance music for example - it's great, but it's variations of the same two themes over and over. Hearing that all over the park all day would be bad.

This is why the 2003 loop worked as it had a a song themed to each pavillion...The problem tho is that any that are online are in an incorrect
Order and play half of the 2003 and the first half of the 1982 loop...
I haven’t spent any time in Epcot yet or listened to the loop more than once (not really a fan, it’s pretty bland and packs as much punch as a AAA battery), but my understanding from this who have is that it’s the same piece of music played around the park. Apparently THEZach thought that made it “a theme”, waaaaay back when he was overseeing this project.
