Best Station Music

I am new here and don't know if this has been done or not. What rollercoaster do you think has the best station music. In my opinion, it's Nitro at Six Flags Great Adventure. I love the Mortal Kombat theme.
 
Vampire. Its fab and I'll be shocked if it doesn't get mentioned by a few people over the course of this thread.

I also quite like the kumali music, although last time we went, the ride ops had just plugged in an iPod and were paying generic pop.

I also love Troy (TROY!) Of course:-)
 
I really love Colossus at Thorpe Park.

If I was the head of an evil empire, I'd insist that the first part is played as I march purposely around the inside of my hollowed out volcano lair. The next part (with the drums and strings) would be played when I'm fighting the good guy on top of the volcano. Then the slow part about 2/3s of the way through would be played whilst I'm lying on the ground dying before being thrown into the lava. The final part would strike up as I evilly emerge from lava stronger than ever and plot my revenge on the good guy.

I really like the music.

Air's "chill out" theme is pretty good, too. I remember putting it on one night when me and my mates were getting stoned (drugs are bad etc) and really getting into it.
 
I really like the Maverick music, and I really hate all the hillbilly music at I305.

Always the CP fanboy, Millennium Force's custom in-house soundtrack is well suited for the station and overall ride experience.

I love the heavy bass in Inferno's station and If they turn down the Colossus music just a little bit, I would say Colossus as well.
 
The Hex music is fab and I'll second Nic's mention of Vampire <3

OP: I can't even recall any music being played at all on Nitro so I'm going to have to disagree. The Flying Dutchman at Efteling has awesome music, and an honorable mention to Fluch von Novgorod.

Don't know how you missed that Jordan, but I've been listening to it since 2001 & still love it. I think Jer & Kimi also like it.
The theme music for Apocalypse at Six Flags America is really good & my favorite so far. Don't know who it is, but I recorded for my off-ride video - just need to get back down there & film the footage again (since it was stolen with all my other stuff in Guatemala).
 
^ I can't say I noticed the Nitro music either, I rode that coaster a few times over two days too, I don't really listen out for that kinda thing though and the station was often busy.

The only ones that have stood out to me were Troy and Silver Star, I quite like Maverick's theme music too.

There was a song playing at the entrance to I305 a few times that was pure cheesy hillbilly but I loved it, can't find it after a few google searches though. EDIT: It was 'She Don't Love Me More Than Nascar' but i'm not sure if it was the Grandstaff version or a cover.

Finally got around to editing the video & posted it yesterday. Might be the only one I ever post with the station music throughout the entire video.

^ I'm pretty impressed at how much work Six Flags put into the re-presentation of a relocated coaster. Is that original theme music or was it lifted from some movie soundtrack?
 
It's lifted from the Battle:LA soundtrack, but this is only one segment of the music that plays in the station. Another segment is from The Island soundtrack & another is from the Fast Five soundtrack. All of it sounds great & is mixed together perfectly.
 
My favourites are: (they're not as manly as the others)
Black Hole Station Music

Space Mountain (Fl) Old queue music:

Think I just have a thing for retro space music haha!

Gotta love depth charge also! I believe it's the same music as for the flume at AT but without the ducks lol:
