[P@D] DivinumX – Kindling | Melodic Metal

DivinumX is always good for some hard-hitting metal and for Ponies at Dawn: Skyward, he brings his ‘A’ game! Kindling is the story of Rainbow Dash telling how she started in the shadow of greatness, longing to be one of the greats who casts that shadow in front of a kindling flame. The vocal work is just incredible, perfecting utilizing the spectrum of techniques from clean singing, guttural screams, and chill-inducing harmonies. The guitar work is fantastic, pairing incredibly with the double pedal bass on the powerful drums making for an all-around top-level song!

Updraft draws nicely from Spitfire’s chops from the “Wonderbolt Academy” and “Top Bolt” episodes which adds great intensity of the track. The lead is super catchy and the beat is inescapable – a fantastic track to get you up and moving!

[P@D] BroniKoni — Autumn (Осень) | Latin Ballad

You don’t have to understand the words to feel the emotion in BroniKoni tracks. From the hit, new compilation album Ponies at Dawn: Skyward, comes this snazzy, fall anthem. The instrumental uses somber overtones with soft, jazzy melodies on top. The lyrics tell of the sad reality of the summer making its transition back towards winter with the cold winds of the Crystal Empire breaking through. BroniKoni give us a fantastic track for a chilled out, lazy day (or any time you want to listen to a great piece!)

Forest Rain – Silverstream / Big Blue | Pop Punk

If you haven’t downloaded Forest Rain’s new album Discovery, then get on it now! One of the amazing songs you’ll hear is Silverstream – this energetic and touching tribute to the most enthusiastic and optimistic of the Student Six. It’s easy to jump around to these tracks with the quick guitars and flowing drum beat that make the genre so much fun to listen to!

Another hit included is Big Blue, a tribute to the softer, often hidden side of Gallus. This track has softer, more melodic parts like the piano lead-in and outro. Of course, this song wouldn’t be complete without the faster, standard pop punk chorus!
