Walt Disney World Resort hotels include their own medley of music loops, from the African medleys of Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge to the contemporary jazz played at Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort. In this episode, we analyze the music loops of the Disney Resort hotels in the Disney's Animal Kingdom, ESPN Wide World of Sports, and Disney Springs resort areas. We also discuss how Walt Disney Imagineering selects music to match the theme of each Disney resort hotel.
