Now officially open, Space Mountain returns to bring a new generation of explorers into the darkness of deep space. The attraction has been completely redone and features an outstanding soundtrack, and will also eventually feature a nighttime 'Rock It' mountain soundtrack, see below:

ANAHEIM, Calif. – Red Hot Chili Peppers, recently nominated for six Grammy awards, are red hot and their music will temporarily transform Space Mountain at Disneyland and California Screamin’ at Disney’s California Adventure into new rock n’ roll adventures. As part of the “Year of A Million Dreams” celebration at Disneyland Resort, rock fans’ dreams will come true as Rockin’ Both Parks provides new special effects and soundtracks specifically remixed to heighten every twist, turn, rise and drop of each thrilling attraction.

For a limited time (from January 3 through April 26, 2007), guests will experience Space Mountain like never before. The high-speed interstellar adventure, that has captivated Disneyland guests since the 1970s, will temporarily have an all-new twist. Rockin’ Space Mountain fans will find the attraction sporting new technology that features illuminated dancing rock fans, more than 200 lights brightening the track and a brand-new, customized soundtrack by Red Hot Chili Peppers. The band’s famous song, “Higher Ground,” which was a 1989 hit version of the Stevie Wonder original tune, will create an out-of-this-world rock adventure. Along with new technology and lighting, all systems are a go.

Riders of Rockin’ California Screamin’ at Disney’s California Adventure will also twist and turn to a new soundtrack. With a specially customized version of Red Hot Chili Peppers’s 1999 hit “Around the World,” guests will rock through the attraction’s 6,000 feet of track. The four-minute ride is the world’s longest steel looping roller coaster and takes guests from zero to 55 miles per hour in just four seconds.

Rockin’ Space Mountain and Rockin’ California Screamin’ are just some of the highlights of the “Year of a Million Dreams” celebration that began at Disneyland Resort in Southern California and Walt Disney World Resort in Florida on October 1. For 15 months, Disney Parks are celebrating dreams coming true, making literally millions of dreams, large and small, come to life for eligible guests through the Disney Dreams Giveaway.

In addition to the Disney Dreams Giveaway, guests are enjoying all new immersive entertainment experiences at the resort. At Disneyland Park, guests are meeting, playing and learning their royal ways with Disney Princesses at Disney Princess Fantasy Faire, dueling with Darth Vader at Jedi Training Academy and creating mayhem with Pirates in New Orleans Square. At Disney’s California Adventure Park, guests young and old are bopping to the beat and joining in the fun of the High School Musical Pep Rally.
