iblank2apples & R3CTIFIER – Phoenix (Chang31ing Remix) | Complextro / Hard Dance

Chang31ing returns with an unexpected remix of the Complextro song done by iblank2apples and R3CTIFIER for P@D:Guardians – Phoenix.

This remix has some really genre changes, in the first drop we can feel a lot of Hard Dance with Complextro elements part and in the second drop we have some Future with Complextro elements part! I really love how Chang31ing makes the genre changes/mixes in this remix! The form that he manages to adapt the song to his image is my favorite part, we some really nice drums and synths done by him plus samples from the original! The original artists should be proud of it! Chang31ing did an awesome job! Check out the remix!

TPressleyJ – The Dawn of Boi | Trap

Sampling a funny and memey video done by UndreamedPanic, Flittzy and GROskAr about a love story between NeverLastStanding and Ponies At (What in tarnation, this is really weird and funnie), TPressleyJ delivers a mechanical and wild Trap track with a lot of classic Trap elements such the Lex Lugers up and the hey, hey hey with big 808’s and really trippy drops! TPressleyJ surprised me with this track, finally I could dance to a meme track!? (I don’t know, TPressleyJ did really a remix of a P@D meme xD). So yes, The Dawn of Boi, good drops, good sampling work, good synths and drum work. Wild, aggressive and mechanical feelings that this track gave me. Just listen to it, first listen to the story and then listen to the remix for better understanding of context and memes. Just listen!

Rockin’Brony – For the New Lunar Republic (Covering NotACleverPony) | Symphonic Metal

Rockin’Brony’s cover of this fandom classic is truly spectacular. The original was already a powerful, moving composition, but this cover applied a certain extra energy to it. Rockin’Brony, as his name implies, excels at this sort of music.

[P@D] Homage – Free (feat. FritzyBeat) | Electro Pop

With inspiration from Wooden Toaster’s music, Homage and FritzyBeat have put something short and sweet together that definitely reflects Toaster’s style. The bassline is bright and clean cut, and it pairs well with the upper register elements. The chord progression is simple, but it also is interestingly well-put together in context, especially with the vocals, which sound exactly like how Wooden Toaster made his, which is a job well done on Homage and Fritzy’s part. But here’s a final question: are the lyrics referring to Sweetie Bot? The world may never know.

Check it out on P@D’s “Guardians” here!

D3LTA – Flying Above The Clouds | Melodic Dubstep

Inspired by the Flutterchops in Omnipony’s Clouds (which VIP happens to be my favorite pony track ever), D3LTA created a melodic masterpiece brimming with nostalgia and delivering powerful emotion. The divine beauty of the Flutterchops and what they evoke, the very emotion-inducing soft melodies fitting for Fluttershy’s character, and the progression of the track are all composing a very emotional piece conveying so much kindness, and reminiscing of so many pony feelings. Through the celestial drops, the succession of kind melodies, and Fluttershy’s moving vocals, feel the magic of music and Passion!

Also find below an additional review by my bro MC-Arch!

Start of MC-Arch’s writeup
I can tell you honestly, me and Makenshi have so much enjoyment from this Track. It brings back so many happy memories and remind us of why we love what we do. and man, Honestly, I just love the way Fluttershy sings those notes. It reminds me of the happiness and wonders in Live and each time I feel relieved / hope when I hear them. I’m so proud and Happy. Together with the very nostalgic and peacefull tune that is played here its the perfect mix.

Crusad3r – Pegasi Air Raid | Drum & Bass

Crusad3r brings us this wonderful high energy drum and bass track. Beginning with sirens and air raid warnings, the dark atmosphere leads us to a frantic run for cover to escape the air raid that is happening. Excellent bass design and the great atmosphere really bring this track together, and you can definitely feel the panic involved with the theme of this song.

Hay Tea & Sky Runner – Compass for a Lost Dreamer | Drum & Bass

Hay Tea and Sky Runner come together once again to bring us this awesome collaboration based on the fan fiction Compass for a Lost Dreamer. The intro brings us this lovely atmosphere created by reversed piano samples and vinyl crackle. Hay Tea and Sky Runner’s amazingly smooth percussion is accompanied by synths and plucks that float over a wonderful driving bass line. This smooth and lovely track is exactly what you expect when these two names get together!

Inkwel – Angel | Future Bass

Our friend Inkwel keeps surprising me with amazing Future Bass tracks about the Main 6 pets! And we really needed another Angel Bunny track! The drops in the track are on perfection! With a Brostep feeling mixed with the uplifting feeling of Future Bass! The leads before the drops are also well performed, with some really cool and minimal drums and with amazing synths, this leads are really amazing! Some synths have that retro feeling of a 80’s videogame! One of the most amazing tracks done by Inkwel and one of my favorites by Inkwel! Keep up the good work!

StealingShad3z – New Beginnings (The Tower Pt. 2) | Indie Rock

The continuation of When The Tower Is Quiet, Shad3z delivers and atmospheric and emotional Post-Punk track about Lil Pip and the theme of Fallout: Equestria! I really love this theme!

The drums are so clean, that reminds me of some Midwest Emo acts (Emo bands that use Indie Rock/Post-Punk elements) such as Jimmy Eats World, The Get Up Kids, Cap N’ Jazz and Brand New! The guitar riffs/solo along with the bassline are really awesome and that’s what gives to the song the atmospheric feeling!

The lyrics are well written, some really meaningful themes to what I’ve expecting from the instrumental feeling, sung by the powerful vocals of Shad3z, the song has a great vocal harmony, reminding me of some Post-Punk Revival acts such as Bloc Party, Interpol or even The National! It’s Punk with an emotional feeling on the lyrics and the instrumental, and it’s Indie with the “Midwest Emo” feeling and the Shoegazing riffing in some guitar riffs!

   Cleary this is one of my favorite songs written and performed by Shad3z! Keep up the good work my friend!

The Brony Notion – A New Pair of Wings (feat. Vylet Pony) [Bluu Remix]| Electro House

Not gonna lie, this track is the living embodiment of why I think our fandom is so creative and awesome. I can really feel the vibes from this song.
