InklingBear already covered this in his huge rwiteup of Vylet’s new album, Mystic Acoustics, but I thought this would be a particularly cool track to highlight individually. Not only is it the pinnacle of “fuck genres”, but having an entire animated video for it too is incredible, huge props to alumx for his work on it! Most of you have probably already seen this, but go watch it again anyway…you know it’s worth it.

A State of Sugar – Lollipop | Compilation Album | Multi-Genre
The team behind the trancey chill pony themed promo channel A State of Sugar have came together around 6 months ago to organise the collaborative’s first album. Now the album is finally ready, featuring both some of the regulars to the channel and a few new artists to the scene too! In total this one reaches 21 tracks, so if you’re still overwhelmed by the size of the Ponies At Dawn albums, this is something a little more digestible but still completely fresh for you to try out.
Lollipop is available to download from A State of Sugar’s Bandcamp page, and keep an eye out for some of the songs from it here on the site.
A State of Sugar: Lollipop – Album release livestream 7 July!

The show starts at 5pm Eastern / 2pm Western (and if you live elsewhere, you can use this link to find out when it starts in your own time zone) on PonyvilleFM!
Horse Music Hotspot – June 2017
We *might* have the live show back up and running again…but in case you missed the last minute annoucement on Sunday, here’s the latest episode of the Horse Music Hotspot!
To listen in live, tune in to Ponyville FM at 5PM Eastern (subject to change?) on the last Sunday of each month!
Tracklist and embeds available after the break
[P@D] Radiarc – Kyrie / 174UDSI – For The Kingdom | Orchestral
PRAISE THE SUN. It was only a matter of time before the god of orchestral music did a theme for Daybreaker, and it’s amazing that Radiarc managed to finish it in time for Guardians. I love the electronic elements that are added into this, like the resse bass that comes in towards the end.
174UDSI has also mixed electronic and orchestral in this piece, but coming from another angle. Instead, this one seems to be more based on a dubstep composition, but using orchestral instruments instead. Nonetheless, it still works brilliantly, with the electronic kick and snare giving some real punch to the mix.
Kizuru – Keep On Running (covering BroniKoni) | J-Rock
I’M STILL TRYING TO GET OVER HOW ADORABLE THIS IS. Back in 2014, a Russian Brony band called BroniKoni released a song called Keep On Running. Kizuru here apparently thought it sounded similar to another J-Rock song they knew, and so made this cover in a similar style! And with Lenich on the production behind this track, it sounds so crisp and clean too. I don’t think I’m gonna get tired of this for a while.
Ponies At Dawn – Guardians | Compilation Album | Multi-Genre
I wish I could sum up how awesome the songs on this album in a short concise review. Buuut not only are there too many songs to even scratch the surface of this album, but I think the album stream is still going on!
To be honest, there are even some names on here that I don’t recognise myself – and of course some names that everyone will recognise. That’s one of the best things about these albums: not only do you get some of everyone’s favourites, but you can find a chance to discover brand new musicians doing all kinds of different genres, with more than enough creativity to go around.
Guardians is available to download from the P@D Bandcamp for any given price.
The Ponies At Dawn: Guardians livestream is starting now!
The new Ponies At Dawn album will be released on their Bandcamp page later tonight, but to hear it first, tune in to the broadcast on PonyvilleFM, as a special episode of Lycan Dese Beats.
Listen in and join the chat at ponyvillefm.com/chat or hop into their Discord server.
Neon Lights – Civil War | Big Room House
N O V U S O R D O S E C L O R U M
Neon Lights has already blown me away with some of their other house songs, and it’s fantastic to see them both on the new Ponies At Dawn album and featuring on Cider Party too! This track has a great hard hitting drop with big, full saws, and both deep and growly basses.
This is the last of our Ponies At Dawn pre-releases. The album goes up later tonight and the livestream starts in about an hour!
