Full of the magic of OST music, Wandering Artist’s contribution to Ponies at Dawn Skyward features a breathtaking composition with gorgeous melodies, an atmosphere that calls for adventure, and a distinct emotion for the avid explorer. The fact that it’s a BGM for a “Sky City” is very pertaining to the theme of the album, too! A masterpiece of an OST-inspired track, and my personal favorite from the album!
Month: May 2019
Forest Rain – Bad Wolf: 2019 | Alternative Rock / Orchestral
From the all-new Discovery album (album announcement here), Bad Wolf: 2019 is a remake of the original 2013 track by Forest Rain, and you can tell it has been crafted with love! Displaying much creativity with electronic, rock and orchestral elements alike, it makes for a perfect musical accompaniment to celebrate the new album as well as Forest’s upcoming performance at Everfree Northwest on the 17th of May! Physical copies of the album will also be available there!
Blaze, TuXe & Ozzwald – The Changeling (Twitch Remix) [Chang31ing Bootleg] | Hard Dance
Nostalgia time! Chang31ing treats us to a blissful bootleg of that classic which many of us were listening to back in the day! The use of new fitting vocal samples is so lovely, and Chang31ing’s new rendition of the song is quite creative, all while staying true to the vibes and melodies from the original!
[P@D] Quadrivia – The Day It Turns Around | Complextro
Here is an awesome nod to one of the most beautifully sung lines in the entire show! Hot off the new compilation album Ponies at Dawn: Skyward, Quadrivia masterfully mixes Cadance’s vocal chop from You’ll Play Your Part around a powerful beat and heavy bass, makeing Britt McKillip’s heavenly voice shine as the centerpiece of this incredible track! Blend all of that together with Quadrivia’s signature style of top-notch sound design, and you’ve got a song you can’t miss out on!
[P@D] Suskii & VooDoo – GAK IS BACK! | Dubstep
For more electronic goodness off the new Ponies at Dawn: Skyward compilation, Suskii and VooDoo team up for this hard-hitting meme of a track! GAK IS BACK! is intense! As soon as the first drop hits, you know you gotta go hard while listening and this song makes it easy to get psyched up! This duo shows that they are great at the style so prevalent during a time when everyone was going nuts for Gak itself!
[P@D] StrachAttack – ENDEAVOUR | Drumstep
Hot off the new Ponies at Dawn: Skyward compilation album is long-time fandom great, StrachAttack with another very well-crafted hit! ENDEAVOUR is a fantastically melodic piece with powerful drops, mixed nicely in a unique way that you could only expect from Strach. The song is fun and easy to move along to, while changing up the energy throughout to keep you on your toes!
BassPon3 – Sleepless In Equestria | Hands Up
Perhaps calling back to the episode Sleepless In Ponyville with that title, BassPon3 presents us this high-energy Hands Up Hooves Up that certainly keeps the party going without letting you sleep! The break is very beautiful too, and the cute melodies are just so lovely!
Daniel Ingram – You’re In My Head Like a Catchy Song (Cyan Lightning Remix) | House
Cyan Lightning’s classy remixes are always such a delight, and this time the musician pays due tribute to the momentous show song You’re In My Head Like a Catchy Song, sublimating Buttercup’s vocals along a new instrumental featuring many orchestral instruments and a catchy House beat!
[P@D] StealingShad3z – Shut Me Up (feat. Agatan) | Alternative Rock
StealingShad3z always comes up with something new and interesting be in pop-punk or softer, more alternative tracks like this one. Fresh from the new Ponies at Dawn: Skyward compilation album, Shut Me Up is a clever and emotional piece about Autumn Blaze and the Kirin. The tempo is moderately upbeat and juxtaposed nicely with somber overtones while both Shad3z and Agatan sing of the harsh reality that comes from not being able to speak to one another after a big fight.
[P@D] Reverbrony – The Orca’s Mercy | Metal/Instrumental
Reverbrony is well-known for his powerful metal tracks. Featured on the new Ponies at Dawn: Skyward compilation album, The Ocra’s Mercy is a heavy hitting piece that prominently features Reverb’s talent for layering lead guitars with the rhythmic tracks. The swift-moving riffs on top of each other create a pretty cool spinning sensation with the sound and the creative use of harmonics in the outro are just a couple of the incredible features you can look forward to with this song!
