Summary

Disney Parks are filled with thousands of hours of music. From area music loops to attraction soundtracks, Disney's Imagineers infuse a tremendous amount of work creating and selecting music and sounds that best fit every corner of the resort. Disney's Hollywood Studios (formerly Disney-MGM Studios) is no exception. Disney's Imagineers worked tireless to select the best music for each distinct area of the park as they attempted to evoke the appropriate mood and setting for each location. In this two-part podcast episode, we offer a deep-dive discussion of the music at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Part 1 offers insights about the park as a whole, the entrance, Hollywood Boulevard, Echo Lake, Commissary Lane, and Grand Avenue. In part 2, we return to discuss Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, Toy Story Land, Animation Courtyard, and Sunset Boulevard.
