“Make some Magic”, the reopening song by Scott Erickson

Did you know ? The theme song “Make some Magic”, composed by Scott Erickson, is played several times a day in Disneyland Park. You may recognize it, because the original version had already been used in Tokyo Disneyland and Disneyland Paris a few years ago. For this new version which celebrates the reopening of our resort, there are several changes:

• Music has been rearranged
• Different parts of bass and drums have been lightened
• The instrumental part alternates solo guitar and synthesizer
• There are almost 10 different versions of the song of different lengths depending on when it is used (jingles, instrumental version etc)
• 2 acoustic guitars have been added to the version that accompanies the fountains of the Sleeping Beauty Castle
• Lyrics have been changed
• All voices have been redone, and new recordings have been made remotely
• It took a week to arrange and re-record the song
