New Train Arrival Melodies on the Singapore MRT (Recorded Audio & MIDI Visualisation)

Рет қаралды 56,559

7 ай бұрын

Starting October 29, train operator ‪@SMRTCorpSG‬, in collaboration with ‪@thetengcompany‬ which created the melodies, is trialling train arrival melodies on the North-South, East-West, and Circle Lines. This video is a compilation and MIDI visualisation of the melodies!
The melodies are played around 1 minute before trains arrive and they are intended to guide the visually impaired. For each MRT line, there are 2 melodies which are used to distinguish the direction/destination the train is headed for.
While this is the first such implementation in Singapore, other cities already have train arrival/departure melodies, such as Tokyo, Taipei, and Seoul.

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!

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!
