If you aren’t watching newcomer Blurain yet, get them on your radar! Tackling the very tough issue of separated parents beginning to date new partners, Blurain brings us this empathetic rock track dedicated to an underappreciated one-off character, the titular Wind Sprint. Singing from the heart and personal experience, the newcomer blends the best parts of pop-punk and grunge into an awesome, edgy, and optimistic tribute to the purple filly.

Silvr_Scr33n – LittlePip’s Diss Track 2.0 | Hip-Hop
Light Content Warning for swear words, also the fic this is based on is rated Mature on FimFic, so proceed with some caution
Alright, this track came out of nowhere, and dam it goes hard! Almost every single line in this is a reference to the original track, and despite the pretty standard length of just under three and a half minutes this is way more then I can cover in a single article, so I’m just gonna show you some of my favourite bits: The very first line already shows you what’s up, playing around with “Little” Pip and the big bars that are about to follow and the same is continued with wordplay in multiple other spots in between the rapid fire references. During the chorus the counting is panned so as Silvr_Scr33n counts up you’ll hear the numbers “walk” by from one ear to the other. In between the bars there’s a fire instrumental section that’ll blow off your socks if the bars haven’t already done that. Silvr_Scr33n in this track goes from staby rap to almost sung vocals and some in between! And that’s not even close to everything that’s awesome in this track so definitely give this track a listen!
Mare in the Rain – Reasons to Live feat. Chaos Angel (Friendship Was Magic pt.2) | Metalcore
We’ve all had a time when we felt weak and lost faith in ourselves, but these pains will fade away only if we choose to remain hopeful. Whether it be for someone special or our future, there is always a reason for us to live freely and pursue what we desire, just like this exuberant metalcore banger “Reasons to Live”. Collaboratively created by Mare in the Rain and ChaosAngel, this energetic tune and its thought-provoking lyrics inspire us to reflect on our life and aspiration. But the scream and growl don’t stop there as an upcoming dramatic twist immediately brings life to this metal masterpiece and releases countless emotions in a billion shades and tones. Regardless of what they are, there are always a million reasons to scream out our dreams, unleash our sentiments, and live the life we want. It is something that keeps us strong, something that keeps us and our dreams alive, and this song has exactly demonstrated such. Give this song a listen if you’re searching for something to spark hope and energy in your life!
PumpkinZeta – Honeysuckle | Tropical House
PumpkinZeta is no stranger to making chill music, and his new track Honeysuckle really dials up the breezy feels. Featuring tropical, beachy sounds such as chill guitar and vibes, as well wave-crash-y sounds around the drops, this chill track whisks its listeners away from any rainy day to warm, sandy beaches and peaceful fun in the sun!
Tw3Lv3 – Nebula | Lo-Fi / Drum & Bass
Today Tw3Lv3 delivers yet another calm and relaxing banger. It starts out super chill and relaxing, easing you into the track as it slowly but surely builds as you listen, climaxing with a fire DnB drop towards the end before it eases to a close. Definitely something to put on repeat as you study or just for relaxing!
[VibePoniez] Evr! – Shimmer | Chillhop
The second holiday-themed album from chill music curators, ”VibePoniez,” is out now! Among the host of new tracks is Shimmer from up-and-coming artist, Evr! Aptly named, this beautifully chill track features a slow, hip-hop-y beat, gentle piano chords, and twinkly sounds that wrap the listener in a warm and comforting blanket of shimmering sound, bringing to mind images of gazing up at the night sky on a starlit wintry night. Be sure to check out this and other tracks on VibePoniez’ new album, Hearth’s Warming Vol. 2!
Moon Song – Ensnared | Pop
Right from the start, Moon Song’s simple drum kicks and chopped up vocals will have you “Ensnared” in her melancholic melody! While the song’s instrumentation is definitely not to be forgotten, what stuck out to me were the timid yet fierce vocals, which really help provide a sense that these are Fluttershy’s innermost emotions flooding to the surface. Combining that with the instrumentation–a well-mixed concoction of soft piano, poppy synths, and an ever-changing drum track that offers some fun surprises–Moon Song provides us with a tune that is simultaneously heartbroken and uplifting!
SCR4TCHK4T – kittygirl!~ | Future Bass
SCR4TCHK4T’s latest release is a cute and bouncy future bass track! Laced with vocal chops throughout, the track blends together a variety of different electronic sounds. The intro is smooth and mellow with a lovely splash of ePiano, before adding some bright synths and the classic D&B beat implemented with minimalist sounds that slide very nicely into the mix! The main drop is preceded by a really cool build up with the synths ascending in a way that makes it sound de-tuned, building up a lot of tension before delivering us. Afterwards, there’s some energetic chip tune stabs and drum features. Nicely done!
Ethan Toavs – Starcatcher, The Magnificent | Orchestral
Ethan Toavs presents us with another wonderful orchestral composition, this one based on the G3 pony Starcatcher! The piece begins with a majestic fanfare before springing into a lively solo played by an instrument most of us have never heard before, the Bulgarian kaval! The middle section is my favorite however—every instrument drops out suddenly to reveal a celesta playing over a dreamy, barely audible choral ‘ahhhh’. It’s absolutely gorgeous before picking back up into a triumphant brass finale!
EveryDayDashie – A Celtic Pony Encounter | Epic Celtic Orchestral
EveryDayDashie has been on fire as of late, weekly releasing pony tunes in a wide variety of genres ranging from electronic to rock to orchestral. This week’s uplifting pony tune, “A Celtic Pony Encounter,” is inspired by Sunny Starscout’s journeys through Equestria. The piece features an upbeat Celtic melody supported by drums, fiddle, bamboo flute and dulcimer. A gentle interlude in the middle of the piece hovers briefly, reflecting the inspired beauty of the Celtic landscape, but soon relaunches into a crescendo of highland adventure!
