Going back to Trance roots, Nicolas makes us dive into the Corrupted Mind of Twilight who, like anypony, is vulnerable to overwhelming dark thoughts… She lost control of the power of darkness, and that state of mind is represented here through an array of intricate sounds and melodies, going deeper and deeper…

PSFMer – New Horizons | Drum & Bass
PSFMer’s streak of concept-powered pony music accompanied by self-made SFM art continues! Ponies are now exploring space and I guess it was only a matter of time! It’s not 2001 but 2020 (reference intended) and they are lucky to have such a refined and deep DnB tune to celebrate the interstellar launch, perfectly reflecting the wonders and endless questions of space with that rich atmosphere fueled by pony vocal chops, enthralling rhythm, and space-y sound design!
Ocean Melody – Celestium | Soundtrack / Orchestral
The perfect BGM for strolling in forests (those who played The Elder Scrolls might know why), Celestium is showcasing such inspired melodies on a progression that definitely feels OST-like, and the two sisters got another much wonderful tribute!
Daniel Ingram – The Magic Inside (Snow Swirl Remix) | Garage / Dance
Snow Swirl is on a roll with show song remixes made with love, and this time it’s the already emotional The Magic Inside from Rara that gets the special treatment! The “live” aspect of the song is represented further here by creative integration of the audience, and Lena Hall’s gorgeous vocals get sublimated anew by the starry DnB arrangement!
Dandelion – Shorelines And Open Skies | Chillout
Dandelion’s newest piece is a very reflective one, as suggested by the artwork chosen as video art. It has actually a whole concept around it, and you can read more from the description since Dandelion has written a poem about it from the perspective of Dashie! The gentle and hopeful instrumental is starring beautiful melodies painting the night sky wonderfully, and this is definitely a success!
[NSN] Spikey Wikey – Starved | Dubstep
Spikey Wikey’s contribution to Black Stable: Vol 3 from Never Say Neigh Records is not only an impressive foray into the hard-hitting wonders of Dubstep, it also samples Thorax vocals from S06E16 The Times They Are A Changeling to bring a unique concept to life! We can tell Spikey had fun with this one, not to mention it was Spike who was the hero of that episode, and it’s a real delight to have him in the album!
RedSpark – Sisters’ Epiphany | Orchestral / Indie Pop
Not just crafting an emotional Orchestral composition reminiscent of Lullaby For A Princess, RedSpark also contributed with his own vocals to the song and it adds a lot! Enacting the heavy dialogue between the two sisters during that fateful moment in time, the piece makes for an amazing and heartfelt tribute, and RedSpark definitely did wonderful!
William Anderson – A New Hope (Toby Macarony Orchestral Remake) | Orchestral / Soundtrack
The legacy of all the wonderful BGM tracks from the show will shine forever! And inspire pony musicians to pay tribute to them as well, and that is what our friendly neighborhood Toby Macarony is doing here with this “Orchestral Remake” of the BGM from the S2 finale, that is so nostalgic and emotional with how it brings forward those melodies that you will recognize!
Dandelion & Raven – The New Queen Of The Swarm | Soundtrack
I so love what Dandelion did with this new release, turning melodies from Raven into amazing progressive OST-like bliss! It’s meant to depict an impending onslaught from the changeling swarm, and you can picture that while listening to the song so well! That is one of the powers of OST music!
Evershade – The World Above | Synthpop
Evershade takes us to The World Above with this very cuddly song starring their cute vocals! Very Equestrian for sure, the mellow track feels like a warm hug, or like rolling in the fluffy clouds in the sky. With friends in our heart it’s even better, I’m sure thinking about everypony I love so much while listening to this song and escaping in that comfy place!
