Some of you may know Game-BeatX14 from his awesome pony wallpapers on DeviantArt, yet the multi-skilled artist is now taking on the world of pony music on YouTube and his debut track is an enthralling Dark Electro tune about a changeling invasion. Definitely fitting very well to that theme, this onslaught of dark and intricate synths is portraying the assault with sharpness and passion.
Year: 2017
Filly in the Box – The Hills beyond Equestria | Chillstep
Filly in the Box tries out some new stuff in The Hills beyond Equestria. Chilling and tranquil, it’s the picture of serenity. Wonderfully soothing synths play beautiful melodies to just-heavy-enough-drums. This track conjures up magical vistas of Twilight exploring uncharted lands with all her friends.
Spikey Wikey & Hay Tea – Grotesque VIP | Drum & Bass
Spikey Wikey and Hay Tea have reworked their hip-hop song Grotesque into a fast, eerie bit of DnB. The piano is soft and haunting, while the drums are crisp and to-the-point. It’s an all-around sinister and very good song.
Daniel Ingram – You’re In My Head Like a Catchy Song (Jyc Row Remix) | Orchestral
The fateful episode that is The Perfect Pear and its very emotional and gorgeous song continue to inspire with now Orchestral maestro Jyc Row delivering his own tribute to the masterpiece, with the talent he’s known for. Sublimating Felicia Day‘s vocals as Buttercup once again, the Orchestral remix conveys epic and regal vibes, but also the joy, happiness and complicity of the moment shared by the two lovebirds.
[P@D] Jyc Row & Francis Vace – More Cider! | Folk Metal
A prime example of a perfect time to drink the most popular drink down in Equestria. Jyc Row and Francis Vace show exactly how you should do it, with good and strong vocals to guide you through. This absolutely rocks! (no pun intended) Not only that, it’s also the perfect quality of good taste. In other words, it’s also worth giving your ears a listen as they are being drenched in such awesomeness!
This track is available as part of the Ponies at Dawn album Guardians!
VooDoo – Times To Come | Electro / Trance
Enchanted with a very interesting story/concept, VooDoo’s newest tune has got an ethereal vibe backed up with slick melodies arranged through various beautiful synths, and that makes it a piece of choice to convey an exploration into the unknown. Nopony can stop time… and Times To Come does an awesome job at reflecting the many mysteries and paradoxes that wake from the study of journeying through time.
Osoch – Flawless (Covering Daniel Ingram) | Alternative Metal / Metalcore
The recent song from the 14th episode of the Season 7 has inspired a lot of musicians to make remixes and covers. And Osoch is one of that musicians! But why I’m happy about this cover? Because it’s a Heavy Metal cover! So up your irons and get your head ready for some headbanging and moshpits because we’re getting the Metal arena!
Osoch is one of the newest names in the brony metal scene, with only 4 recent songs (all covers, including this one), Osoch has the potential to become one of the hottest names in the brony metal/rock scene. And this cover really shows Osoch talent to re-imagine the song and make by his view!
The drums are really well performed, and that bass flip before the Rainbow Dash verse is really amazing! The guitar riffs performed reminded me of the Modern Metal acts and some of the modern Metalcore acts such as Three Days Grace, Killswitch Engage, Parkway Drive, Flaw (I’m not kidding here, Flaw is a band) and actually when the symphonic elements of the original song combined with the guitar songs reminded me of Apocalyptica and Lacuna Coil! The philter and the reverb used in Pinkie Pie’s vocals is also very well done and then the headbanging and smashing guitar solo makes everything awesome and cooler! And then you realize that it’s the end of the song and you wanted more. Extended versions for this covers are really requested? If they aren’t, it should be requested!
Also this song is available on Rock Farm! The Cider Party for Rock, Metal, Punk, Jazz, Blues and Folk pony songs!
Quicksilver – Too Far Gone For Far Too Long EP | Pop Punk
Quicksilver releases an amazing EP with a lot of awesome tracks with a lot of Pop/Skate/Emo Punk influences. This EP is really short, so I guess that I’ll do a track by track review. Catch it after the break!
Daniel Ingram – Flawless (Enermatrix Remix) | Drum & Bass
Enermatrix make his comeback with a remix of the most recent song of the most recent episode of Season 7! And this time, Enermatrix experimented the wonders of the Drum n Bass sounds!
The drums that Enermatrix used are really well chosen for this style of music, the acapella treatment is also well done, and that the fading part between the chorus and the Rainbow Dash’s verse is pretty good. The synths and the piano used are also one of the highest points in the remix! What I want now is a longer version of this remix! Because this is really a genius way to re-imagine Flawless! Welcome back Enermatrix!
Daniel Ingram – Flawless (UndreamedPanic Remix) | Electro Pop / Bubblegum Dance
The 14th episode of the season 7 got me attention because of the funny Rarity face and because of the amazing song composed by Daniel Ingram in there – Flawless. But I guess that this song also got attention to other people, such as UndreamedPanic. And what Panic did with the song is simply divine!
The vocals chops and the Equestria Girl song feeling that Panic gave to the song are 2 of the things that made this remix great. We know Panic from his originals that are pretty awesome, but what we don’t know is that Panic also can make pretty good remixes, and the Flawless remix is one of them. Basically all the instrumentation added by Panic is awesome and it have that modern pop feeling that it will make you dance till the end of the night! The vocal chops, the vocal chops! Well performed and well done Panic!
