MK Space Mountain RYCA-1 Exit Music?

[Eyeontheglobe]

Hi all. I have been trying to find a piece of the RYCA-1 era Space Mountain music. It’s one of the two instrumental tracks that used to play on the exit ramp. To clarify, one is more melancholy and the other is upbeat, I am looking for the upbeat version. There are videos that seem to contain part of the loop but not the whole thing. The other pieces all loop after about 1 minute 49 seconds, but all the recordings of this segment I’ve heard as part of compilations only seem to loop the same 40 seconds or so.

Starting at 5:13 in this video is a segment of the track that I’ve never heard a high quality recording of:



Can anyone share some insight?

The second video is probably the best source I’ve been able to find so far. It contains the track in question (runs from 9:40 to 10:40). The problem is it doesn’t play that segment out in full before transitioning into the vocal track.

I can’t find any recordings that play that specific segment start to finish. I know it sort of repeats itself but there’s a segment in the middle and then the very end of the loop that I can’t find.

Out of curiosity, what's it for?

Posterity, I suppose.

Ah ok, I thought that you perhaps making a video about Space Mountain and wanted the original version for that.

No, not necessarily. I was just digging around trying to find good recordings of all the different components of the old music for my own use and haven’t had much luck with the piece in question. Thought I’d try my hand here since there are many users that know more than me haha.

I’d like to think I’m bringing something interesting to light but maybe there’s no mystery here at all to anyone but myself.

You're looking for "We've Come So Far"? I've long wanted clean audio of that, plus really the entire RYCA-1 post-show. If only 18-year old me could have had a high-quality audio recorder in 1991...

I believe it's the instrumental version they want?

Ohh... as in the version that is just horns? Hmmm... that rings a bell. I'll have to see what I can find. I may have nothing, but it's worth looking.

There were two instrumental tracks that played in the exit. I believe one played solely in the unload area and the second one played through the first half-ish of the speed ramp before reaching the vocalized track at the very end. I’m hoping to find a full recording of the ramp version. A little confusing, I know

This video is for reference:

This is the right track. Only problem is the video is only about 40 seconds long. The full track should be just about 1 minute 49 seconds.

Here's the instrumental version for you

This is a fan-edited version of the following (which is also posted by the same user):


They just edited out the vocals. I am not sure where, if anywhere, this version would have played. I suspect maybe it is a demo recording.

You’re right. There’s more to what’s been published here. I want to say I’ve heard a good live recording of the whole piece but can’t say where or when.

Ironically I was seeing what a mess the current attraction is in when you tagged me.

Well, I am glad at least to know that there is something to be discovered out there and that I wasn’t searching for something that doesn’t exist. Here’s to hoping a full recording can surface!
