Notes
Playlist compiled by Horizons.
As per Horizons: "The loop plays throughout Future World, including around the entrance locations to Innoventions. Track times are approximate."
"There have been several induction recordings of this in general circulation, some better than others. As most likely know, this wasn't supposed to be the loop that plays in this area. In fact, from what I can gather, there have been three versions of the loop, all of which have played, at one time or another, in Epcot.
When Russell Brower was contracted to compose music for the Innoventions area, he wasn't given much time to complete the task. Brower picked several pieces of existing music and asked WDI to pick the song that represented the overall sound they wanted him to capture for the area. Of the tracks, they picked 'Papillion' by David Arkenstone. Brower composed 'Future World Theme' and mixed this track with edited versions of 'Papillion' and a track Brower composed earlier called 'Ascension,' which was released on the CD Best of Both Worlds - The Second Audio Sampler. This mix was approximately 10 minutes long and, from what I am told, was used for the first several weeks after Innoventions opened.
As the 10 minute loop was being used, Brower completed his version of the loop, which was approximately 48 minutes long. However, the person at WDI in charge of the project believed the loop was too long and asked Brower to not only shorten it but to insert the 'Papillion' piece back in. Brower obliged and, after making several other changes and deletions, came up with the 19:47 version that you hear today. Of interest, there are a few pieces in the 19:47 version that were not included in the 48 minute version ('Interlude C,' 'Future World Theme (Reprise)', and a different mix of 'Innoventions Adagio').
To date, even after several attempts to get the full, original, loop installed, the 48 minute version can only be heard in one room, the 'Bubble Room' at Mouse Gears. Using a CD rip of a version used for a promotional event in Disneyland (see below), the full track list for the 48 minute version should be as follows:
01. Introduction
02. Future World Theme
03. Fiber Optics
04. Innoventions Plaza Theme
05. Interlude I
06. Golden Dream
07. Arcs
08. Fountain of Nations
09. Spaceship Earthrise
10. Interlude II
11. We Used to (Listen to the Land)
12. Symphony of the Seed
13. Interlude III
14. Clockworks
15. Cascades
16. Interlude IV
17. 9' 35" for Six Weeks
18. Innoventions Adagio
19. The Living Seas
20. Horizons
21. Fun to Be Free
22. Interlude V
23. Magic Journeys
24. Interlude VI
25. World on the Move
26. Interlude VII
27. Global Neighborhood
There is a reconstruction of the loop in limited circulation, running 54:53, but, from what I have been able to gather, it's not accurate."
