Let’s make some party?
Lianella Stilson’s music can easily go from relaxing to heavy-hitting depending on the song, and this one could easily fit in the former category. Rn’R is all about making the most of a bad situation, and that you will make it through it. With Lianella’s electronically-charged voice, powerful bass growls and the crazy visual of a pony holding on above a flashing city, there’s nothing you can’t get into with this one!
In 2018 Wootmaster released My Little Mixtape, a compilation album of all of his previous works plus an original, the album opener: Little by Little. The backing beat by Abrante deserved more than one lyricist to pen their verses onto, so Hmpoy remade Wootmaster’s masterpiece, adding their own message. Taking their time therefore never out of breath and always understandable, Hmpoy goes for a different flow but rides the beat seamlessly nonetheless. Further extending a message of hope to the fandom, the bittersweetness acknowledges nevertheless the hardships that have been faced and the ones yet to come. People like Hmpoy are the new generation of peers Wootmaster spoke of in the original.
Rapping vocals and lyrics that are Straight From The Heart, Acarcion did so good to express all these feelings by way of this new song released on the brony rap initiative. The cuddly beat from TCB completes the vocals and the emotion so well, and the duo created something meaningful that shines over the community! And as the song says, the ponies from The Other Side are watching too!
Snow Swirl’s exploration of DnB continues with what is indubitably one of my favorite releases from the musician: a chilly yet quite emotional song about Trixie traveling on her own and depicting her character depth! Inspired by this artwork, the gorgeous piece echoes its title with a mystical atmosphere and soundscape making you feel like you’re out there in the wild witnessing the Dawn, and like you’re Following Her Hoofsteps. A masterpiece of concept for sure!
Vivix has such an appreciated signature Alt. Rock sound and every time he releases a new pony song it’s always a bliss! Sanctuary is all about Zephyr Breeze’s character depth and it’s such an interesting theme to go for. It makes this song quite deep, all while feeling so underground!
Extending the emotion and the Autum Blaze musical wonders even more, Cynifree and Zizkil made a breathtaking 10-minutes version of their masterpiece From Here To Where (that got its VIP featured in A State of Sugar Waffle), released on the ASOS channel with bouncy and cool visuals to go along with it! It’s Christmas at every release with A State of Sugar! Kudos to the musicians for such a gift!!
The MLP movie soundtrack has plenty of bangers, and Open Up Your Eyes is one of them. Jonny Music and Yensid Organist have come together to create a fresh arrangement of the song on a church organ, and good thing too, because this song translates perfectly to the instrument. All of Emily Blunt’s vocal lines, the chords and soft instruments seen in the original fit perfectly here; the organ really captures the menacing tone we heard in the original!
Rinnie’s latest cover from the show is of Celestia’s Ballad, one of the more memorable numbers from season 3. The added guitars and drums add a new feeling to the original, complimenting Celestia’s voice. The overall sound feels like something from the 80s thanks to the electronic drum sounds and additional keyboard riffs towards the end, and the original audio from the episode where she transforms (without the visuals, mind you) adds a lot of suspense!
Intersekt returns with their first original single in a year, and boy was it worth the wait. Hurricane is a strong drum n’ bass track with atmospheric piano chords and strong basslines, combined with the beautiful guest vocals from Koa, singing about struggles and anxiety. There’s a powerful drop with heavy warbling bass sounds that even keeps the melody with a piano, making it sound relaxed yet strong at the same time. Check out the drop three minutes in; it’s crazy!
Ready for some Pinkie-inspired craziness? Hyperactive is brambleshadow4’s latest outing, and it feels like a journey inside Pinkie’s erratic and unpredictable mind. The track starts off with a fast chiptune arpeggio which gradually speeds up as the drums join in. The main melody remains catchy and speedy and doesn’t let up until the end; honestly, it gives me Touhou vibes! After almost 5 months of being left in the shadows, it’s nice to see such a fast piece get put out!
