The Alton Towers Music, Video and Other Multimedia Thread

Lovely work Nick!

 

Sadly due to Hans Zimmer's other pirate track the world expects big orchestral stuff. Gone are the days of intimate 5 piece timbres when it comes to pirate music.

 

Would post in the scarefest topic, but this is more about the music used over the video

Scarefest ITHOTMK?

 

That is really fantastic work Nick. It's got that whimsical magical feel to it (perfect for a theme park) with a bit of a nod to Danny Elfman in parts. Also reminds me of Graham Smart's style from the 90's which I think a lot of people here loved, although yours feels more modern and high quality.

Very impressed.

 

Thank you for this excellent recording Martin.C of the full Galactica Soundtrack.

Christmas is coming to Alton

 

The park closed on the 6th of November. Santa's Sleepover is a special package offered including a hotel stay, selected ridfes and the chance to meet Santa. As the park isn't open there is no admission options.

 

Not entirely certain, but I'm sure I heard this played outside house of monsters at scarefest.


Merlin like to reuse their music across different attractions, so it wouldn't surprise me. might be wrong though, it's been ages since scarefest.

 

A rather random request but does anyone know if the unreleased flume media (queueline bridge announcements, sitdown in your bathtub, don't splash etc) is knocking around at all anywhere now the ride is no more? Also, anyone tracked down the Skyride 2008 theme? It's a variation of the old TS riff but it's never seen the light of day unlike most of the rest of the suite.

Plus, I'm not sure if these are out there or not but some of you may really like to listen to these old school tracks (one being extremely old school!)...I happened to discover them in a random folder:

2007 Resort Theme Monorail Video Edit

Towers Street Suite Disco

Henry Hound Parade

Enjoy

 

Alton Towers doing the mannequin challenge at Xmas

 

The only announcements for The Flume which I am aware of at present are below:

Annoucements

Also, not sure if this has been posted yet, but to add to Imagination's post above, here's another file some might like:

Monorail & Skyride (2012 - 2014)

 

Thanks for that @Martin.C but the ones I mean are these:
Flume Bridge Queue Rec plus the "sit down", "don't splash" etc

Oh and I forgot to attach this in the last one too - (very bizarre...): Towers Street Break-Beat Edit

 

Did anyone manage to get some/all of the music and videos from TowersNerd before it was pretty much abandoned?

 

what happned to that si

what happned to them?

 

It's not being updated it seems, and the videos have gone

 

I always wondered what happened to Towers Nerd. The site went quiet a few years ago but they always kept up with the Live feed for special events. That hasn't happened for a long time either.
