Greetings Film Fans! 

As we approach the 35th anniversary of the Disney•MGM Studios, there's a lot of ground (or should I say notes) to cover. 
Today we begin the countdown with a "double feature" of new additions to the Studios Soundtrack Series ranging from the intimate to the epic!

Per the usual, both of these atmospheres were painstakingly reconstructed from the originals with enhanced noise removal creating the clearest sound in existence and meticulously created cover art. In particular, Sid Cahuenga's One-of-a-Kind required the careful restoration of 40 classic themes (often 80+ years old) and the manual removal of 4,300 clicks for the best listening experience possible.

Here are the results:

Techno Millennium

As part of the Millennium Celebration, the anthem "Celebrate the Future Hand in Hand" was produced in several musical genres including Country, Latin, Pop & Gospel.
I thought I had all of them until I discovered this somewhat forgotten variation as part of a recently contributed archive of theme park music.

The following is the 2OOO "Techno" variation created for the New Year's Eve celebration held nightly on Pleasure Island.

Enjoy!

A Music Purists Paradise
The Official ^Instrumental^ Album of EPCOT Center

Our 15th-anniversary celebration kicks into high gear with this unique tribute to the park's musical repertoire.

Inspired by the once frequent and highly treasured Official Albums of the parks, The Official ^Instrumental^ Album of EPCOT Center, utilizes the latest AI* audio separation models to present, for the first time ever, these classics in purely instrumental form, accompanied by many once-commercially released medleys and augmented by several that should have been.

*AI with considerable manual (aka human) efforts to remove AI artifacts, remove volume “ducking”, and enhancement to adjust for the loss of EQ.
