Oohohooo~ The local popstar returns to us with another cover! And rise? Namii absolutely does with this cover of “The Twilight Will Rise”. I want to express how incredibly talented and versatile Namii is… They can go literally EVERY direction with their vocals! I think everything about this cover is perfect. It’s smooth, epic, and just pulls you in! I am really glad to see a classic brought forward once again with such power and determination. Truly like Twilights character I’d say. Phenomenal work Namii!

Continue readingJyc Row – Naegissa’s Music Box | Orchestral
I’m starting off the new year with yet another piece from the madlad Jyc Row with new piece of the Infitnite Eclipse series. This piece delivers a very eerie vibe. It’s oddly relaxing, but you just know something is coming… And YOU BET this piece helps deliver it. As its creepiness and intensity increases by the second. But only delivering a small taste of what’s to come throughout the series… It is in either case safe to say, Naegissa’s appearance is both something to dread and something to get hyped up about!
One thing that keeps me amazed regarding this project is how the builds-up remain so vast and consistent. I feel like a massive, wonderful story is going to come out of IE that’ll blow everybody’s mind. Well done, Jyc!
One Track Mind – Everywhere at the end of Equestria | Ambient
One Track Mind, delivers us a very, very intriguing Yona track. I find it ironic how this is a composition that was simply manifested out of nowhere, yet I find a very bittersweet feeling as mentioned in the comments. As if Yona and/or you are looking at a very bittersweet memory with a smile on your face and reminiscing about it. That’s just how I see it, but maybe One Track mind had something else…in mind (no pun intended I swear). But that’s what I like about writing specific articles for musical pieces such as these; to let the listener speak for themselves on what they think about it, and let them draw their own conclusions.
limbosystem – Dizzy, Starry Eyes | Indie Rock
Ah, nice lovely rock vibes from the homie limbosystem bringing us the track Dizzy, Starry Eyes. It’s the perfect title for a track like this because you wouldn’t pass an opportunity to stargaze, right? Those moments are truly beautiful. Aren’t they? I really enjoy the Beatles / Pink Floyd vibes this track gives us! The universe has always been a very interesting concept to mankind, and since music is what feelings sound like, isn’t it just beautiful to express that curiosity and beauty through Music?
EveryDayDashie – Mane Melody Nightclub | House
EveryDayDashie just keeps pumping out great music and I can’t keep up! This venture into classic ‘nightclub’ style house seems to channel the energy of a certain eurodisco classic with modern sounds and clean production. It’s also his first try at using AI text-to-speech to create vocals, with Pipp encouraging us all to get up on the dancefloor!
4everfreebrony – The Wings You Earned (covering Tarby) | Prog Rock
There’s an awful lot of history behind this song, having gone from a JackleApp demo (from 10 years ago!) to a Tarby demo to this polished release from 4everfreebrony! The magic in the simplicity of the original composition is only amplified by this arrangement as it draws out the feeling of yearning in its lyrics. Like in so many of his recent covers, 4EFB has breathed new life into an older fandom song and made something special.
Thrack – Ballad of an Earth Pony | Folk
Thrack has emerged this year not only as a solid drummer, but also a funny and talented songwriter! This folksy, acoustic ballad is equal parts humorous as it is catchy as Thrack sings of the paradoxes of trying to be a pirate while dealing with the limitations of earth ponies. The syncopation is snappy and guarantees you’ll be singing along long after the song has ended!
Daniel Ingram – Find A Way (SpinScissor Remix) | House
SpinScissor returns with a remix of a G4 classic “Find A Way”. This immediately takes a dark turn from the start with metallic warping textures overlain on an ominous drone. The mix of Twilight’s vocals and the tone of the mix are intriguingly unique and there is always a new element introducing itself to keep things fresh and flowing!
Jyc Row – Fluttershy, One With Nature | Epic Orchestral
Jyc Row’s second track from their ‘Elden Wing EP‘ is themed around a boss theme for Fluttershy. The EP itself is a concept album tying together ideas of both MLP and Elden Ring and those themes ring true here. Mystical and huge in scale with a wide orchestra opening the gates to powerful, foreboding vocal lines and the roar of distant yet powerful war drums, the title “One With Nature” could not describe the duality of nature’s force and beauty better!
