A short Disneyland Paris update today as for Disneyland Paris Hyperspace Mountain It's D-10 before the first blast-off, and DLP Press office released the first official pictures of the new trains ! "Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain will provide Disneyland Park guests with a brand new mission in the Star Wars galaxy, where they can join the famous Rebel Alliance and experience the thrills of an epic battle, totally immersed in the universe of the Star Wars films. From May 7, guests will take their places in brand new vehicles, with a new built-in sound system that will enhance the experience even further. Here they are, awaiting their first passengers…"
Now, all this looks good indeed and we can see new speakers near the head and the seats which will be also equipped with a new kind of harness BUT who the hell had the idea to choose this garish blue and the burgundy colors?!? And by the way, why did they needed to change the train colors when the previous ones were perfect? There is an old American quote that apparently someone forgot at DLP Imagineering: "When it's not broken, don't fix it!"
Disneyland Paris also released today a press release and pictures ( from a previous event ) for the Electroland party happening on July 8, tickets are already on-sale now at:

Disneyland Paris announces Electroland
A brand new immersive one day music extravaganza at Disneyland Paris STEVE AOKI / NERVO / MICHAEL CALFAN/ RICHARD ORLINSKI Saturday 8 July 2017
Disneyland Paris is launching a ground breaking electronic music concert Electroland and will open its gates to 10,000 music fans to enjoy DJs, immersive partying and of course, theme park rides. American superstar DJ, record executive and producer Steve Aoki will headline the concert along with Australian sister duo NERVO. They will also be joined by french DJs Michael Calfan and Richard Orlinski
Taking over the park for one exclusive night, Electroland will transform DLP into an EDM haven. This very first edition of Electroland promises to be nothing short of magical. The event will give ticket holders exclusive access to the park rides by night as well as the acts on the breathtaking outdoor stage. With giant LED screens, projection mapping on to one of the park’s most iconic attractions – The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, some very special guests and surprise immersive elements, all set against a magical Disney backdrop, Electroland needs to be seen to be believed.
Steve Aoki, Grammy-nominated electronic dance music superstar is renowned for his pandemonium inducing sets! As a recording artist, Aoki’s 2014 studio album Neon Future I— which soared to No. 1 on the Dance/Electronic Album chart—features the Gold-certified single “Delirious (Boneless)” with Chris Lake and Tujamo featuring Kid Ink. But I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead reveals a lesser known dimension of the entertainer: Aoki’s self-made success which has propelled Aoki as an entrepreneur and performer. Founder of the taste-making record label Dim Mak and a chart-topping producer-remixer-DJ Aoki has his finger pressed firmly to the pulse of cutting-edge youth culture.
NERVO are a sister DJ and song writing duo from Australia. Having written and produced hits for the likes of Kylie Minogue, Ke$ha, The Pussycat Dolls, Afrojack, Steve Aoki and Miley Cyrus to name a few, the sisters have risen to stardom. Add to this a DJ schedule spanning over 200 live shows world-wide per year with main stage slots at some of the world's biggest festivals, Las Vegas residencies at super clubs Omnia in Las Vegas and Ushuaia in Ibiza, NERVO are one of the hottest electronic music acts in the business.
Michael Calfan is a French artist who brings a fresh perspective to the electronic music climate. His attitude is about having fun and not taking life too seriously, while creating music with feeling, depth and emotion: “I find inspiration in all kinds of art, anything with emotion. Maybe I’m idealistic but I want to give people feelings; create memories and nostalgia.” Hits like Treasured Soul, Nobody Does It Better and Thorns have helped create a lot of those nostalgic moments for people. They have garnered chart positions, millions upon millions of streams and helped to make Michael one of the most sought-after DJs around.Richard Orlinski is the best-selling French contemporary artist in the world. His sculptures are designed around the theme ‘Born Wild’ and reflect a deep reflection on animal instincts and human nature.Curious by nature and eager to express his sensitivity through other disciplines he also developed a passion for music. He launched his first single ‘Heartbeat’ last year featuring famous Dutch singer Eva Simons which was number one in the French charts for three weeks in a row. He is currently working on other titles featuring more international music star. As part of DLP’s 25th Anniversary Richard Orlinski has created a one off sculpture of Mickey Mouse!
Electroland is a made to measure musical event that reaches out to the generation born with the Disneyland® Park 25 years ago, offering the chance to see the park as it has never been seen before. Tickets are on-sale now at: electroland-disneylandparis.com

The most important part about the new trains is that they look more like the original Discoveryland Steampunk style than your typical Star Wars theme - meaning there is a real possibility that eventually, we are going to see the return of the original Space Mountain - De la Terre à la Lune!
Wow, I am actually loving those new trains! They are well in the original style of Space Mountain: De la terre a la lune, and I hope that they will provide the reliable soundtrack to the ride that was sorely needed! I was actually afraid that the re-design would be star-wars based, but this gives me hope that the original 1995 version might come back after hyperspace mountain !
Ah! It's time to go back to the original! Interesting design indeed!
Here you can see the original cars: https://parkvault.files.wordpress.com/2015/05/train-space-mountain-dlp-2001.jpg
As is obvious they are brilliantly designed, the Mission 2 cars were poor in comparison. These 3rd version are possibly better than the 2nd, i think .
