Luna songs are always good in my books, but when they’re inspired by real life events, it adds a personal flair to it that makes it perhaps a bit more special. Sights’ new song takes partial inspiration from Do Princesses Dream of Magical Sheep, and for the second time he’s ever tried rapping, he’s done a pretty good job. Sights, you get a thumbs up and an e-hug.

[LDB] Sasha Lace – Love and Admiration (feat. Andante Skie) [covering SGaP] | Soft Rock
Taking on one of the songs by the legendary SoGreatAndPowerful, we have Sasha Lace and Andante Skie’s contribution to the new Lycan Dese Beats album. This soft rock cover features some wonderful lead guitar work and puts a rather different spin on the original version while keeping plenty of the original feel of it.
NeoN – A Day At The Beach | Tropical House
I’m still not overly familiar with the tropical house subgenre, but considering it’s July, now’s a better time than ever to get those summer vibes going! This new song from NeoN is super smooth and super chill with soft piano chords and a wonderfully uplifting lead sounds.
Daniel Ingram – Luna’s Future (Eurobeat Brony Remix) | Eurobeat
The godfather of brony music is back with another song that’s kinda like a cover, kinda like a remix. EB has done a remix of Luna’s Future featuring his own vocals, slightly modifying the structure of the original, and even wrote some additional lyrics to make a second verse!
Direct Current – Fade | Pop
A sort of alternative-indie-pop piece from Direct Current to finish the day, with what I believe is his vocal debut! And as with me when I first tried singing on my own songs, it was pitch correction to the rescue. This two halves of this piece are sung from the perspectives of Shining Armor and Candance respectively; that duality is always a nice touch.
The Cosine Pitchshifterz – DustyKatt | Hardstyle
I didn’t think we’d see any more sweep remixes but apparently there are never enough of them! The Cosine Pitchshifterz have another track in their usual heavy hardstyle, catch it above for some heavy beats.
[KM] Totalspark – Resurgence | Future
New Cider Party Feature! This time it’s something from the recent King Mars Tribute Album by Totalspark. A sort of hybrid between future and chillout, also with Sparky’s own vocals filling out the track, this is some of his best work to date, and a great way to mark his Cider Party debut too!
The Cosine Pitchshifterz – Ask Pun Pony (NeverLastStanding Remix) | Hardstyle / Happy Hardcore
Why have one ‘hard’ genre when you can have two?! I never expected NeverLastStanding to make hardstyle but he seems to continually surprise me. Check out this two-in-one remix to finish off the day.
[LDB] EM120X – Teardown | Electronic
This song from EM120X sorta fits both into our midtempo and chillout categories; it’s at 110bpm and has very chilling vibe to it, but moreso in a dark way than a relaxing way. It’s pretty different from some of the other stuff on Beats Me 2, a but then the whole album is somewhat eclectic, so it fits right in!
Daniel Ingram – Luna’s Future (Frozen Night Remix) | Symphonic Metal
Perhaps more of a new arrangement than a remix, but still definitely pretty cool, this version of Luna’s Future by Frozen Night is a 3-phase symphonic metal track. Small phases, but still with tempo changes and the sense of different levels of pace between them, interesting stuff!
