1:01 This chime sounds like you’re about to leave the country by plane, it’s used well since it’s for airport bound, been to singapore to celebrate birthday and mostly used the mrt, no taxi, no bus
Here are my opinions on it: - Adapting the music from local folk songs was an excellent way to make it feel unique to Singapore. - I really like the adoption of 2 melodies for each line, with each used to indicate a direction/destination that the train is going to. - However, it seems strange that for the North-South Line, the mellow version was used for the Southbound instead of the Northbound side, since the northern part of the line is mostly residential areas while the southern part is the Central Business District. The mellow chime seems a better fit for the Northbound side. - Also, the Circle Line's melodies usage of chimes (and this time of the year when they started the trial) made me think it was a Christmas-themed melody. But overall, as someone who loves train melodies, this is a really exciting initiative, and I hope it stays!
First time hearing these on recent trip. The CG Tanah Merah gave a weiry traveller so much comfort. Some of the others are a bit infantilising. But I love the new approach well done Singapore!
Just watched the video. I haven't been there for years and your video brought back my sweet memories. This was a very detailed video and I enjoyed watching. Thanks so much. Subscribed.
Sounds like one of them belong in a JR Station, here they are: [and i hope it comes soon] 0:08 - Takao, Hachioji, Kokobunji, Kichioji And Tachikawa Stations [Bound For Takao] 0:24 - Takao, Hachioji, Kokobunji, Kichioji,And Tachikawa Stations [Bound for Tokyo] 0:40 - Mitaka, Ogikubo, and Nakano Stations [Bound For Mitaka] 1:00 - Mitaka, Ogikubo and Nakano Stations [Bound For Nishi-Funabashi, Toyo-katsudai, Chiba, And Tsudanuma] Also you can hate if you want, I’m okay with that
Now that 三轮车 is played as one of the new MRT chimes, you can hear the actual song in this link: ua-cam.com/video/Cx0xB8H3cz8/v-deo.htmlsi=4Y2Tlvt6hGtZT1tH This classic children's soundtrack will be familiar to S'poreans who grew up in the 80s-90s. Anyone can remember, especially those who had cassettes or CDs?
i was able to record directly from the speaker so you can take a look from the video on my channel ! but it is a little cut off at the front cuz i recorded at nicoll highway
These melodies are part of a pilot by SMRT to test their effectiveness in guiding commuters with visual impairments. Hence, it's only being tested out at a few stations, rather than at all stations. I do hope it will be rolled out to all stations though!

I’m still wondering why never implement at DTL, NEL and TEL

Ya lor. DTL could make do with 80s non-NDP local song 😂
@@yasukoh2277 SBS Transit owns the remainder but TEL and the future CRL. The LTA will have to ask them if it's fine with them to add such.

The chime corresponds with the NSEWL Track Association.
NB/EB
SB/WB
Maybe cause the Downtown and CBD gives off the Monday blues of work.... while going home is happy hence the happier music :)
1:32 imagine some people say “Hoi Hoi” or “Hey Hey” 😂🤣😆
The Chan Mali Chan is actually quite decent and could be easily recognisable
But I’m Tyler Chan…

Fun fact, tanah merah no longer has the chimes due to people complaining about how noisy it is
Bruh the chimes are good why would they say it was noisy?Are they even racist about the chime?
@@astinyyk_3737 no I think it may be too loud. Also they said that most people don't like it so they said majority wins
Bro I just googled Tanah Merah today and it still have the chimes
Cuz Under constrution
Still got chimes today❤
Rare footage of double non-KSF in NSL
The most important part is the fact that you can get the best results
Always love it when taking the MRT
My favourite melody is the ones at 0:08 and 1:20.
1:00 tanah merah is so calming

Wooooooooooooooowwoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo❤
Im impressed with how I could recognise none when it first came out
I personally love the CGL chimes
👍👍👍 Very interesting
Singapore is going in all the right directions.
correction:
Version a of CMC plays for DB and MB bound trains while version B plays for stadium and harbourfront bound trains
Actually, the version B is only played when it announces the destination of the train so it's only heard for Stadium bound trains
OMG it's like japanese metro sound😍😍🥰🥰

My favorite melodies are nsl and ewl except ccl
The only reason why we have to go back
If ur baby is crying, just ask the train driver to play this until baby sleep lor!

I think chan chu sing can have dance session at stadium station 😂😂
I herad a distrupshun is on 26 september 2024 now is 1 OCTOBER 2024.
Why sometimes the chimes are not played when trains arrive?
when can do the Train Chimes?
You mean inside the train when they play announcement
Can I use these?
0:40
Midi download please?
1:01
For the CCL chimes, there is sparkly feedback during the sound. Able to remove it?
i was able to record directly from the speaker so you can take a look from the video on my channel ! but it is a little cut off at the front cuz i recorded at nicoll highway
Why tricycle version different?
but why not put these in all stations

If I want, can I borrow this videos audio for my trainspotting game?
I'm not sure about the copyright status of the music, so it's use at your own risk. If it's just for personal use, it should be fine.
@@yjjcoolcool It is a game that has already been released a year ago, made by me.
.😮
singapore trying to be japan be like:
m one 1:47
💀
Who, in the right frame of mind, would want to have the chimes played at stops? So next, are they going to extend it to bus transport?
This is one of the WORST additions to public transport since making Lush Green the default colour on all Public Buses
