This much original and beautiful Rock piece from Luck Rock acts as a wonderful tribute to Starlight Glimmer, and delights with soft and heartfelt vocals, as well as divine melodies performed on guitar and keyboards. A mighty anthem for Starlight indeed, glimmering in the night and in our hearts!

Talented singer and guitarist SlightlyAmiss graces us with utterly beautiful vocals once again, with a deep song paying tribute to Lyra and some headcanons about her from the community. Delighting with meaningful lyrics and tear-jerking soft guitar play, the song will take you to an amazing journey of sound as you stargaze with Lyra.
Quadrivia – Royal Punishment | Complextro
Is it after dark yet? Well, in our server’s timezone it is, so I can post this song! Alright everypony, for those of you not familiar with Quadrivia’s outstanding talents at Complextro and other hard-hitting genres yet, we’ve got you served with this track from the recently released 0% No Innuendo Intended album (that I recommend). Breaking the limits with wubs that defy gravity and tasty voice acting by IMShadow007 and MEMJ0123 (who you might have already heard of in past community works), Royal Punishment will delight your ears, as well as your eyes with the cover art from the ever-so-talented Gashi-gashi (who you might remember from some of Ken Ashcorp’s songs), delightfully giving prominence to the almighty absolute territory/zettai ryouiki of Twilight here.
NeoN – Summer Nights | Progressive House
After the amazing Tropical House of A Day At The Beach paying tribute to the Day, it is now a Night track that our friend NeoN is presenting us, and it is no surprise that it comes out to be quite emotional. The emotions we can feel with music can be so powerful that they could very well be considered as magic, and this track is the result of what happens when you embrace the Night while composing with much passion and emotion. Truly a much appreciated and wonderful piece of art and song to listen to as we stargaze or reflect, Summer Nights is a token of our power to feel – and create – our own “magic”.
Seventh Element – Crash | Neurofunk
Seventh Element returns with a much welcomed Neurofunk track named after the affectionate nickname the Wonderbolts gave to Dashie in Newbie Dash, and the track itself pertains to Rainbow’s antics in that episode, more specifically when she imitated her friends, or had an identity crisis, as you prefer to think. Seventh Element’s talent definitely shows here, as this delightfully dark track provides with its uniqueness and mad rythm!
[SNMS] Kawaii Dash – Bubble Tea | Future
Take a break everypony, it is Bubble Tea time! Such a cute track name could only come from the community’s number 1 moe/kawaii music producer, Xavi aka Kawaii Dash, and he certainly delivers in this Beauty In The Trees contribution of much beauty, freshness and flavor. The amazing classy whomps are sublimating the mighty sound design you could expect from Xavi, giving this track a unique taste and a blissful mood. Did you know that bubble tea is actually a real drink? Look it up, it looks very tasty! Also go give Xavi some hugs!

Hay Tea – For A Change | Drum & Bass
(Warning, S06E16 spoilers ahead) Drum & Bass talent Hay Tea presents a fine piece centered around the latest episode, and it certainly is a delight to get what could be a musical interpretation of Thorax’s backstory, empowered by mighty art from Shamanguli. Dive in the beautiful flow of this track as DnB greatness unfolds!
Shika No Mori Sound – Beauty In The Trees | Album | Multi-Genre
It’s time for a new collaborative album from the community, everypony!! And this one certainly delights and holds many surprises! Living up to its lovely title, the album from collaborative effort Shika No Mori Sound (“Forest of Deer”) delivers tracks of pure beauty and power, featuring musicians from all around the community, including familiar names but also some you might not have heard of. What they all have in common is that they did amazing to bring this concept justice and produce a mighty album as beautiful as a forest!
Starting off with the very headbangable Venality from R3ctifier centered around the events of Friendship Games, the first half of the album hits as hard and powerfully as witnessing the many wonders of Nature would feel, with very enthralling tracks such as Aven‘s Purpose (#4), the dark and heavy Worlds from Flak (#14), the insane Dustep madness of IKX in Two Faced (#12), even bringing all the Hardcore with track #7. And this goes not without mentioning the cute yet powerful mellow interlude of Kawaii Dash‘s Bubble Tea (#6) that surprises with a mighty sound design and Future mood!
The second half of the album further embodies the gentle, invigorating and emotional beauty that Nature can grant to those who open their soul to it, with chill-ish songs that matches the concept in the most wonderful ways. Starting with Fallen Empire from emotional Chillout master Totalspark (#15), we then get entranced by the mighty groove and originality from Waifu Avenue‘s 16 Under 20 (#17), dive into the amazing depths of Ax:l‘s Bröadcast (#18), wander through DisCHORD‘s Wilderness with both awe and energy (#19), inger in bliss as the Drum & Bass of Progressive Element‘s Crystal Fragments stimulate our ears and soul (#20), get hit so hard with the amazing soundscapes of Chillout masterpiece Dreamscapes from Totalspark (#21, his second contribution to the album and my personal favorite from the album), to end with the much welcome piece from Vinyl Darkscratch Snipershy’s Ballad (#22) and Shü77erfly‘s melodic Atmosphere that warms the heart and soul (#23).
You can get Beauty In The Trees on its Bandcamp page. And don’t forget to give mad props to all those amazing artists!! You can get their info in the “read more” section of the Soundcloud page.
