Sounds great, but I am still extremely disappointed that there's no attraction themes in there. Heck, I just need One Little Spark and Golden Dream and I'm good. This just seems like a big wasted opportunity to bridge the three eras of this park together. But I realize that 99% of guests won't even notice this change.

Definitely sounds better then I would of had thought. It’s got that EPCOT feel to it, I really wish it had those EPCOT themes though. It’s not bad, but some themes would elevate it.

I really was hoping for an original score. ....Don't come at me with pitchforks guys.... But this is the serious tone I've wanted for the entrance for awhile. I loved Steven Price's work on Awesome Planet and I'm stoked he's included.

If you’re that desperate take a seat in the restroom on either side of SSE. BTW, I’m in Epcot today so get to experience all the new sights and sounds.

This definitely matches the "more cinematic approach" to the entrance I've always been told about. Can anyone on the ground tell if the new speakers are already in use for this BGM?
Yes the new speakers are in use. Bit more on that at https://www.wdwmagic.com/attraction...t-main-entrance-gets-new-background-music.htm

My first impression is that I really liked it. It does seem to have that grand "Epcot" feel to me. I agree that it would be nice to have a few classic Epcot themes mixed in. I'm not t he most musically knowledgable person around, so I'm not familiar with any of these themes, but I believe that they are not original, and that does bother me a bit. Epcot deserves new, original music, with a dash of its own classic themes.
But as I said, I like it.

Tonight's or the 50th?

I guess I'll be spending more time outside the park listening to the music before I go in. Until they change it.

Anyone know what they mean by light ribbon surrounding the rim of the entrance area?

There is a ring of lights on the edge of the entrance area (on the shelter-like things). I assume its those.

Oh I see a light trim on the buildings in background from his flag video. Is that it? That wasn’t there before?
