thank you very much for your request! Unfortunately we cannot send you the full 75 minutes music and sound atmosphere of THE SMILER. We produced it for Alton Towers Resort exclusively and right now it’s only hearable on site.

Best regards,

CEO & Project Manager"

Fingers crossed one day they will release it. I do have a copy of half of it however it is quite bad quality.
I have posted this on Alton's Facebook page, however it would be good if they released the track on CD and sell it in the 'Buy The Smiler' store. They could also do this with other themes and charge a small amount for each or put them all onto one CD album.

The problem is that it wouldn't take very long for people to upload the full soundtracks to Youtube or wherever else, and then the exclusivity is gone.

True, but even a shortened down version would be great on CD!

Has anyone got the Dark Forest version of the Rita exit announcement? If they have and would send it to me, I'd be very grateful. Thanks :)

The background music of this is one of the greatest recordings ever made of the smiler FULL tune!!!
If someone could deduce the music from the video and share it I and many others would be VERY thankful.

Hello,

greetings from Germany. Last I am looking for the background music of "The Smiler" in the dark room with the illusions (room in 10:55 in this video: I don´t mean the typical Smiler-Soundtrack with the laugh "hahaha", but the other bass tones which sound a little bit mysterious and psychopathic.

I have found a recording this piece of audio somewhere on Vimeo I think. I just searched the smiler and a load of high quality stuff popped up. Have a look!

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has a mp3 download (or knows where one is!) to the Rita announcement thing that says:

"keep your head back, hold on tight, you must escape... GO GO GO"


Thanks

I don't think having it is but I don't know about sharing things which haven't been released, like the smiler soundtrack. Soundtracks on YouTube and already released audio is ok I think, not 100% sure though 8-[

Merlin allow their audio to be used as long as it not used for anything other than what they call 'advertising' for them. For example, using the audio in another theme park or attraction would be classed as breaking the copyright rules but for alton towers, thorpe park and other merlin parks, it would be absolutely fine to use the audio. They basically don't want you using it for anything other than theme park purposes. Also, the shortened version of The Smiler soundtrack is fine to use plus most other soundtracks. Alton Towers are more protective over the official lengthy audio. TowersTunes do good, and so do TowersTimes but around half of the audio was removed due to copyright reasons.

Like snappy, does anyone have to Rita "Keep you heads back, hold on tight, you must escape. Go go go" and the exit announcement.
Thanks!

Anyone got the original Rita keep your heads back announcement? If you've got the new one that'd be good too. Thanks.

They're both on Youtube and they're of high quality. Just search 'Alton Towers Rita Past/Present Launch Announcement'
