It’s always a treat when Ocean Melody uploads. March of the Tides is their second song based on the Background Pony fanfic, and like Darkness Sonata, it focuses just on the lyre to create a song. A lead melody plays over a soft arpeggio, sounding melancholic and brooding as it is said to be Lyra’s own spin on a song called Sunset Bolero. Short, but bittersweet.
Sonic Rainboom – Arcana | Progressive Trance
Comebacks? Comebacks. Arcana is Sonic Rainboom’s first track in nearly 2 years, and was it worth the wait? This is a progressive trance piece that features Twilight Sparkle’s vocals chopped up to create part of the melody along with the atmospheric and filtered synths. The end result is something that sounds like a trance track from the 2000s, much like BassPon3‘s discography. What a wonderful way to return to the fold!
[ASOS] Tw3Lv3 – Aimless Destination | Liquid Drum & Bass
Where are we going? Wherever the road takes us. Track 38 from A State of Sugar: Brownie is Aimless Destination, one of Tw3Lv3’s two appearances on the album. This one is super chill yet fast-paced, the drums and bass taking center stage while some soft and subdued (and reversed-sounding) synths add a nice atmosphere. Liquid DnB is one of those genres that truly have something special.
JP Hyper & N4ghtwolf – The Runekeepers | Epic Orchestral
JP Hyper collabed with N4ghtwolf to write a theme song for a fanfic they wrote, and what an epic track it is! It sure is indicative of the kind of epicness you can expect from the story, with those choirs and that progression of 9 minutes of Orchestral greatness that is already an adventure in itself!
Crusader! – You’re In My Head Like a Catchy Song (Covering Daniel Ingram) | Acoustic
The community will never stop making all kinds of covers of that sweet, sweet song from Buttercup! Crusader is extending the vibes from the original with ukulele and harmonica, and of course his signature vocal style that never fails! A very appreciated cover for sure!
Harmonic Six – Flutterdreams | Orchestral
I just love songs representing a character like this, you can feel how the sound and melodies are portraying the pony, and what thoughts the musician had while composing the piece! The flute is definitely very fitting for Fluttershy, and these Flutterdreams sound so mellow and comfy, just like the kind of world that she would imagine, filled with kindness!
RottenTotten – At The Break of Day (Altius Volantis Remix) | Trance
Altius had the lovely initiative of remixing RottenTotten’s Daybreaker-themed Orchestral beauty, and this new spin could definitely fit well as a “battle preparation” BGM in some RPG game! It could also play in some epic scene in a movie, enacting a battle between Daybreaker and Nightmare Moon!
Daniel Ingram – A Kirin Tale (Likonan’s Club Remix) | Breaks
The Autumn Blaze has just been doubled! Listening to this wonky and delightful spin on A Kirin Tale feels like swimming in her irresistible voice and that just feels so great! Likonan definitely did amazing with these vocal chops, and I would party hard in any club playing this remix for sure!
James Kelly, SkyBolt & Inky Notebook – Daunting Future (Fallout Equestria Dead Tree Outro Theme) | Soundtrack
Multi-media fan works are always so awesome, especially when they’re also group collabs with friends! For the series of audiobooks/dramas “Fallout Equestria Dead Tree” on the channel, Shotgun Angel Productions released this outro song that gathers the vocal talents of SkyBolt and Inky Notebook from the Traveling Pony Museum, as well as the compositional prowess of James Kelly of East Corp Productions! Everypony coming together to create fan works like these makes me so happy!!
Rinnie – Legend You Were Meant To Be (Covering Daniel Ingram) | Rock
I’ll never get tired of such blissful rock covers, extending the feeling from the movies! And songs from the Rainbooms in EQG have a distinct charm and emotion to them, ever since Rainbow Rocks, that can definitely be felt here in this awesome new rendition of the closing song from Legends of Everfree by Rinnie!
