There’s a reason people always say home is where the heart is, as this piece should tell you. After a few setbacks, it’s finally here. This Is Our Home serves as an interpretation to the show’s ending, harbouring a positive and light mood as if to say the evils that shrouded Equestria are finally gone and everypony can live in peace. Can’t go wrong with such a serene conclusion!
SP1TF1R3 – Glowpaz Princess | Melbourne Bounce
SP1TF1R3 bounces back with his first track of the decade as well as his 2nd MLP-centred song, Glowpaz Princess, a very bouncy (get it?) Melbourne Bounce track with some ancient vibes! Centered around Somnambula, it only makes sense that the synths and bass melody gives off the feeling of wandering around in a dark temple hallway as you hunt for a lost artifact.
[Equinity] CRUVOD – Treasure Hunt | House
No need to hunt for treasure, we’ve found it for you. Track 11 from Equinity 02: Catalyst is a bouncy house tune centred around the theme of the CMCs going on an adventure to find some treasure out in Equestria, wherever it may be. The synth melody as it builds up along with the strings throughout the middle really add to the adventurous feeling the track gives off! Can’t pass this one up.
LaunchSix – Launch Sequence | Dubstep
LaunchSix returns with Launch Sequence, the opening track to his newly released Gravity EP, and what a way to start it off! The drop sees the synths descend in pitch as a countdown from 10 can be heard before igniting right into a powerful section with low and sharp basslines and synths that leave you feeling like you’re floating through deep space. Check out the EP if you can!
Koa – Silent (Covering Francis Vace) | Piano Ballad
How about a change of pace? Koa’s cover of Francis Vace and PegasYs‘ Silent is a much softer rendition of the original, serving as a ballad. Gone are the catchy and quick-paced drums and chiptune synth sounds; all we have here is Koa’s voice accompanied by a piano. Despite this stripped down arrangement, it all feels so full and somber, giving it a brand new atmosphere!
Ocean Melody – Clash of Fire and Smoke | Soundtrack
A tale of two quarrelling princesses… Clash of Fire and Smoke is another one of Ocean Melody’s great orchestral pieces that serves to tell a story. From the bells to the strings, wind instruments to the brass, it sounds like it came straight from an RPG game. Maybe one that could be centered around Celestia and Luna’s conflict? It’s also slated to be a part of Ocean’s upcoming album titled Tales of Sun and Moon, so keep an eye out for when that eventually comes out!
Spikey Wikey – Booty Time (Hoofy Remix) | Hardcore
Frozen Night – Hope Eternal | Orchestral / Soundtrack
My fellow bronies, lend me your attention for just a moment. We have a real honest to Celestia pony inspired video game with a seriously awesome OST! It’s called Ambient.White, check it out Here. The music however is full of exciting energy. The same energy that good video game music, does to get you to feel invested into the game itself. Frozen Night composes the main theme of this game about two alicorn sisters (Astrum and Krinita) on a dangerous journey for their lives hiding in enemy lands. This Orchestral theme sets that tone very well. from the start. The music pulls you in with a sense of wonder, danger and excitement. This music gives me a Dust: An Elysian Tail vibe seriously. As always, This Qilin asks you judge for yourself.
YeahButThenDragons – Find the Music In You (Covering Daniel Ingram) | Acapella
This catchy song made famous by the PonyTones has been reimagined by YeahButThenDragons and her brother with just their voices alone! Their arrangement makes it seem like a fully live rendition done by a full acapella ensemble, just from the addition of body percussion and plentiful harmonies. Daniel Ingram would be proud.
Maressey – Well I Wonder | Indie Rock
After a long wait, the final album in the Maressey tetralogy is here. Track 7 from The Twiluna Album is Well I Wonder, a parody of the Smiths song of the same name as well as the album’s central track. It depicts a scenario where Twilight encounters Luna on a visit to Canterlot, and the two form a large bond, making it a duet between the two. Faux Snyder and Metal Mare brilliantly play those roles, respectively, and Freewave‘s instrumental rendition of the original track is top notch!
