Songs that go well with rides at KI

Featured Replies

What songs do you believe go well with rides at KI?

Adventure Express-Raiders of the lost ark march

Beast-The Exorsist theme

Flight of Fear- X-files theme

Thats just a few whats yours?

Flight of Fear - Space Mountain music!

Adventure Express - Indiana Jones theme

WindSeeker - Test Drive (How to Train Your Dragon Theme)

I know two of those are used but Flight of Fear with Space Mountain music would be awesome!

Invertigo - Vertigo by U2 again (I kind of thought of a Vertigo parody called Invertigo)

Drop Tower - It's current Right Now by Van Halen

The Beast - I kind of like whatever it's new music is

Adventure Express - Like jdawg said, Indiana Jones theme like it has

I kind of like most of the current music for the rides.

Flight of Fear: "Subterranean Homesick Alien" by Radiohead

The Beast: "Wherever I May Roam" by Metallica

Vortex: "YYZ" by Rush

Grand Carousel: "March from 1941" by John Williams

Flight Deck: "Danger Zone. (Obvious. :) )
Flight of Fear: "X-Files Theme."
Scrambler: "The Hamster Dance. lol"
Dinosaurs Alive: "Jurassic Park theme.."
Son of Beast...

Lol!

Son of Beast...

Lol!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That song is quickly becoming for enthusiasts what "It's a Small World" is to those currently riding it at Disney.

Even Jim Rome uses it now too!

Adventure Express- The existing soundtrack... And the reprogramming of the driver's mic so as to allow the Station Master play! B)

Flight of Fear- Keep the existing sound effects, and the on ride soundtrack. I absolutely love that, and I'd prefer it to stay the same!

Drop Tower- Right now, you might as well use it for seasons to come. (anybody get that?)

The Racer- How about that '70s music that was promised to us during the offseason?

WindSeeker- Gosh, they can do so much with this, such as

, or maybe even this.

The Grand Carousel- A working organ that plays music.

The Beast- There's been some music playing in the queues this year and last that's sorta been off and on, so let's get that working consistently. The same is true with the soundtrack on the lifts. I've been thrice this year, and I've only heard the music on the lifts once. But I would also change the lift music, back to when it was the Independence Day score. I loved how it would play throughout the whole lift, not just half.

Backlot Stunt Coaster- In line, I'd to go with this.

As for Halloween Haunt, I would use these:

1.

2.

5.

6. This one I think would make an excellent addition for our Haunt. It starts out very soft and low, and gradually crescendos for an epic finish to the piece.

So, there's a hint at what I would use if I were to run the music department! :P

PS- Cedar Fair should be able to play soundtrack scores through the in park speakers, right? Music copyright works differently than does theming rights (that's how we got Inception, and last Haunt season actually, Independence Day. Food for thought)

Son of Beast...

Lol!

True. Trust me, Ive been rick rolled more times than I care to count, But I thought it seemed fitting..

Lol!

I think the more proper music for this is....

As for more on the Haunt subject, I think 115 would be a great song for the night.

What song is playing in Invertigo's station this year? I kinda liked Vertigo more.

What song is played by Delirium? I don't think it's still Song 2 by Blur.

Also, what is being played in Flight Deck's que on the cruddy speakers?

Sorry for all the questions, I was at the park today and got curious in line.

The licensing of music is the same whether it is played on a ride or through a background sound system. The music heard on The Crypt goes through the same process as what you hear even in a mall. Most works of music are licensed through an organization, particularly BMI (Broadcast Music Inc.) and ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers). If it's played publicly, you need the rights to do so.

^Can the same be said for Flight of Fear? If so, could we also, in theory, be able to get the Tomb Raider scores seperate from the theming rights?

Flight Deck plays music from the Transformers (Revenge of the Fallen). The speakers in the queue are terrible, but the station speakers are good.

We're building it up

To break it back down

We're building it up

To burn it down

We can't wait

To burn it to the ground

Oh my...the song is based on Son of Beast...

Flight Deck- Superman theme

Flight of Fear- X-files or Doctor Who theme

Rebel Yell(Kings Dominion)- Rebel Yell

The Beast- Crazy Train

For Haunt:

Any song off Trent's albums would work.

Nooo! If any one of you suggests anything to replace Flight of Fear's soundtrack, I'm gonna scream!

^First, it's too long. Second, doesn't "fit" the ride. Thirdly, nothing beats that score! Nothiiiiiiing!

^Can the same be said for Flight of Fear? If so, could we also, in theory, be able to get the Tomb Raider scores seperate from the theming rights?

Let me repeat: ANY work of music that goes through a licensing organization must be cleared for its performance or broadcast in a public setting.The music from the Tomb Raider films fall under the same idea of licensing as the music from Tomb Raider: The Ride. If you didn't create it, you have to pay the person who did and their publisher in order to do so. If you pay the price, you can play your heart out with music from Lost. If they are telling you they don't want their music played, you must obey this order or face legal consequences. For example: If they were allowed and paid to use Flight of Fear's music, they can play it all they want. If they weren't allowed or didn't pay to use TRTR's music, then they were forced to change it... and they did.

WindSeeker - Test Drive (How to Train Your Dragon Theme)

That is/ would be great. Without hiccup (charecter) talking in the backround.

Flight Deck:

Flight of Fear:

Coney Mall:

Firehawk:

Drop Zone: This one has a bunch of songs mixed together. But I like the first one the best.

Flight of Fear:

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! :angry:

Do not change my Flight of Fear! :angry:

And Drop Tower's fine, too.

Original, Test Drive is used as one of WindSeeker's theme music.

Flight of Fear:

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! :angry:

Do not change my Flight of Fear! :angry:
