Jyc Row is back yet again with another incredible track for the Infinite Eclipse series, and like all the other tracks in the series it is full of epic orchestration and stunning storytelling through music. “Molten Spike VS Ember & Thorax (Badlands Meltdown)” is a direct sequel to “Wings of Destruction” and “Heroes Shall Vanquish Once again,” two other impressive narrative-driven tracks in their “Molten Spike” story from the “Prequel’s Finale” sub-series of Infinite Eclipse. Being the first track in a while to be fully instrumental, it brings out Jyc Row’s amazing talent creating his signature epic orchestral and highlights the celtic-type instruments that go into it. And don’t get me started on the male choir vocalization! I feel like I am immersed in a great dragon battle with a crowd of warriors backed behind me.
rawrity – PINKIE (SCR4TCHK4T REMIX) | Future Bass
SCR4TCHK4T released a remix of rawrity’s “Pinkie” this year, and the result is a lovely, upbeat take on the original. It adds bright, optimistic piano along with a thundering bass at the beginning, and a slick house beat in the middle. My favorite addition is an all new verse sung by SCR4TCHK4T about not giving up hope and continuing to search for the narrator’s love that gets paired with some powerful synth stabs and harmonies to make it really hit home. The remix is definitely worth checking out for any fans of the original.
RedWire – What Do You Believe In | Drum & Bass
The final and titular track of RedWire’s EP, “What Do you Believe in,” is a majestic and transcendental piece. It begins with minimal but haunting synths and crunched percussion, soon to be accompanied by piano. Don’t get too cozy though, because everything drops out, and you’re slammed as the bass comes in! It continues to be thoughtful and evolve over time, with orchestral plucks joining the mix, and highly stylized vocals joining well into the song. It’s an absolute treat to savor, and by the end, you may have achieved enlightenment!
GNG – A Dashie Anthem | Rap/Hip-Hop
Content Warning: Explicit lyrics
In this track, GNG symbolically conjures a mass of thunderclouds crackling with electric overdrive and dense to the point of sensory overload. Fascinating artistic use is made of the ethereally shifting tones which can result from running pure electric feedback through many layers of noise reduction.
Everything is distorted; You might not even know the lyrics were explicit if they weren’t provided, but the core message comes through clearly in this swaggering rap anthem for a pony who needs no introduction: You can clip the sound waves but you can never clip my wings!
Ethan Toavs – Odysseys | Orchestral
rawrity – PLATONIC | Pop
General Mumble – Be Still | Electronic/Dance
General Mumble’s “Be Still” is a creative jaunt of spooky, funky fun, with just a touch of the creepy that will have you bobbing your mane and stepping your hooves. Perfect for any Nightmare Night gathering, the piece really catches the mood of the season.
The atmosphere is dramatic and while the music is upbeat the dichotomy between the upbeat tone, the unsettling undertones and the dark shift in lyrics in the second act are truly to die for.
Pagan Pegasus – Earth Pony Envy | Electro Swing / Drumstep / Drum & Bass
Pagan Pegasus is no stranger to hard-hitting tracks, and this one is no exception.
Right from the start you hear the piano run and vocal samples and you know you’re in for a treat that only builds from there. The drop in this track hits hard, and just when you think it couldn’t get any better, you get an excellent blend of contextual vocal samples taken straight from G5, the tempo goes double-time and hits twice as hard! This is definitely worth a listen, if for no other reason than the fantastic blending of genres that make up “Earth Pony Envy”. You’ll find yourself headbanging along to the beat and maybe gain a new understanding about why Posey Bloom really doesn’t like magic.

As summer ended and with fall starting, John Doe released a new song for Pony Town on the theme of fall! The whole song has a really pleasant feeling attached to it, being both calm and peaceful as it allows us to remember all the memories we had on Pony Town thanks to its easily distinguishable music. Whether it’s to enjoy it as ambient music, or being fully focused on it while chatting with other pony friends, this song is a perfect choice.
