A song for Berry Punch: DRINK! Francis Vace and Quicksilver join forces once again for another awesome Luna Ticks song. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – they’re one of my favourite brony collab projects ever, and I envy everyone who will get to see them perform at ROTLCon this November! Anyway, check out this song for some awesome high-speed punk rock!
Month: May 2016
Silver Note – Unicorns and Soundwaves | Album | Rock / Electronic
Compiling nearly 2 years’ worth of his brony music, Silver Note has just released his first ever album. After the break I’ll take a look at each track and give you a full rundown of it, going from his oldest songs to his newest!
[P@D] Replacer – Some Dumb Ideas | Jazz Fusion
Replacer has brought us another track that I can only describe as…”a Replacer track”. Seriously, his stuff is always really unique and different from anything else on the Ponies At Dawn albums, and they’re always outstanding (and I hope that genre tag is somewhat accurate)! There seems to be a nice little reference to his previous song In Defence of Madness in there too. See if you can spot it! 😉
[P@D] ThatMusicBrony – Rejected / Totalspark – Aurora Borealis VIP | Future Bass
A couple of future bass tracks from the new P@D album to fill your afternoon. First up, another one from ThatMusicBrony, who featured on Start Again but this time brings a solo track to the table. This song about Trixie is top-notch, comparable to the likes of San Holo and similar future bass artists.
And of course, Totalspark gives us a track in his usu- wait, he did vocals on this? Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think that’s a first! It’s great to hear Sparky singing on this song, the vocals fit the chill nature of it, and the piano sounds amazing.
[P@D] Hydra – Nox / Progressive Element – Robot Pony | Future Garage / Neurofunk
As usual, Hydra brings something different to P@D with an ultra-smooth future garage track heavily influenced by Direct. With high-quality percussion, and even some epic orchestral strings in the break, this groovy track is great to lose yourself in.
And next, Progressive Element shows his versatility after creating some prog house bangers for the last two P@D albums by going for a completely different style. This track is a heavy and dark neurofunk track that really shows what Prog can do when he puts his mind to it, creating a deep and foreboding post-apocalyptic atmosphere.
[P@D] Jastrian & Synthis – Ethereal / DJ RedSky – Luminescence | Chillout
Let’s take an easy start to Sunday morning with a couple of chillout songs from Awakening. First up is Ethereal, which combines Jastrian’s composition skills with Synthis’s awesome sound design. Fluttershy music is the best chill music! c:
Next up, a chill midtempo song with a tropical house feel to it; DJ RedSky’s contribution to the album is very relaxing and makes great use of simple but effective sounds. RedSky just keeps on improving with every song they make, and it certainly shows here!
[P@D] Dragonal & Rockin’Brony – Transgressions (feat. PrinceWhateverer) / SDreamExplorerS – The Swarm (feat. Metal Core Pony & Kitchen Warrior) | Metal
First up in this little section of more hardcore rock is Dragonal and Rockin’ Brony’s metalcore piece featuring vocals from the one and only PrinceWhateverer! An epic re-telling of the season 5 finale and the battle between Twilight and Starlight, this sure takes me back to my days of teenage angst…so much gentle aggression…
Following up with an even heavier piece is Soul “Dream Explorer” Strings, with some help from Metal Core pony and Kitchen Warrior. Also inspired by the season 5 finale, albeit a different part of it to the previous track, this melodic death metal song focuses on the concept of Chrysalis and her army taking over Equestria. Metal is rather fitting for Cheeselegs if you ask me!
