Exiark, one of my favourite musicians in the fandom, has graced us with yet another album. To quote his bandcamp page, “This album was based on a simple concept: Stab Your friends in the back and run away…” Make of that what you will, and catch the full album review after the break!

Reverbrony – Craving Chains (feat. BriLizyT) | Metal
One of the best things about Reverbrony is that he uploads new music on a regular basis, so there are always new songs to enjoy! This latest song captures Chrysalis’ personality and features BriLizyT’s powerful, vocals to tell her story.
[P@D] Brilliant Venture – I Love This Fandom | Dubstep
Another song from awakening, this time a dubstep track from Brilliant Venture. This song combines their own wub sounds with vocal splicing of clips from the show – something we’ve loved for ages!
[P@D] Francis Vace – Spell (feat. Itchigotchi) | Pop-Punk
Time for something a little more pop-oriented than usual from Francis Vace. It’s a upbeat little duo with the wonderful Itchigotchi with a deceptively sad message about Twilight’s nerdy solitude. Go check it out for happy/sad feels!
Celestial Throne – Battle Against Time (ft. BriLizy T and Ponysphere) | Progressive Metal
Are you ready for something big? Celestial Throne just released an epic 13-minute progressive metal song with the help of BriLizy T and Ponysphere! Inspired by the season 5 finale. The song is split into several main acts, 4 according to the way the lyrics are displayed in the description, each section telling a different part of the story and having a slightly altered composition. Sit back, put on your headphones, and take a good listen to this!
[P@D] Starlight – Sincerity | Chill Trap
Taking a slightly different approach to their music than usual, Starlight, the collab project between Proctra and PegasYs, are back with a new song. Instead of the usual Glitch-Hop we have this lovely chill trap piece, and tells the story of what could have happened after the Cutie Mark Crusaders got their marks. Prepare for alternate timelines and sad vocals as Starlight take you on an emotional journey with this song.
GhostXb – Zapp! | Symphonic Metal
Always good to see more Powerpuff Ponies music, and even better to see more metal from GhostXb! If you’re used to Ghost’s orchestral music, imagine that, but accompanying guitars, bass and drums too. In other words epic + epic = this. What more could you ask for?
PREY – Secrets Of The Forest EP | Trap
Our second EP post comes from PREY, who recently made a return to the pony music scene. Secrets Of The Forest showcases 3 trap songs from PREY – get the full writeup after the break!
Einarx – Descended EP | Electronic
We’re posting two EPs this evening: the first of these is from Einarx, who managed to get some time off from their military duties to make a song for Awakening and include it as part of an EP! Catch the full writeup after the break…
[P@D] EnsionD – Bloom (feat. Francis Vace) | Progressive House
It seems to have become a recent tradition for EnsionD and Francis Vace to collab on Ponies At Dawn albums, and I’m loving it! Not only is EnsionD a great house producer (better than my attempts at the genre by far), but these songs give Francis a chance to show his vocals fit multiple styles of music. And of course, it features Taviscratch, so it gets instant HMH approval!
