3 new MLP field themes designed for a RPG from our Soundtrack and J-RPG enthusiast CisumClassic, and as always it’s so appreciated! On the menu, themes for Tartarus, the Tree of Harmony, and Seaward Shoals from the episode PPOV! Very fitting themes, and the awesome inspirations and tastes did wonders again!
[Equinity] Shuffle Horse – Hot Salsa | Guaracha / Tribal House
Now this is an odd one! ‘Hot Salsa’ is Columbian tribal house song from Equinity 01: Stellar that carries itself with fun, fiesta-like vibe and gets straight to the point with a hammering deep bassline; You’re gonna want headphones or a decent subwoofer for this one! The very high leads meld wondrously with the basslines and the trumpets and vocal samples really bring out the aesthetic of this tune and is a very chaotic yet minimalistic piece. If you’re looking to party and need a very powerful groove, this is the track for you!
Pegasas – Shimmer (Sunset Shimmer’s Adventure) | Glitch-Hop
Now this shocked me out of nowhere! This is the first time I’ve heard of Pegasas and colour me impressed! There is a very chilled laid back hip hop vibe from the get go with lots of intricate plucks and synths mixed in which already on its own is really nice! Now the drop is where it really takes the cake. A very heavy and glitchy syncopated bassline with plenty of complex sliding and stuttering sliced up and regurgitated in a masterful way, mixed in with the melody, powerful chords, and vast array of instrumentation, this is how I always imagined Glitch Hop to be as a genre and this artist knows their stuff!
Tripon – Titan (Single Purpose Remix) | Neurofunk
An ominous threat looms.
Single Purpose has remixed Tripon’s ‘Titan’ and has heated things up quite a lot. The drums roll the beat extremely well and the complex neuro basslines are on point. Single Purpose has built a very ominous atmosphere with this and even the breakdowns don’t let up and keep you on edge with the sounds and tension. This one truly is a special one, and you better not sleep on it!
[Equinity] Jalmaan – Alive | Progressive House
A very upbeat and cheerful song by Jalmaan, ‘Alive’ ties in perfectly to the end goal of Equinity 01: Stellar, and that is to raise money for suicide prevention.
Opening with a catchy and punchy melody and bassline and the song’s energy quickly builds into a very danceable and energetic song! During the breakdown and bridge the atmosphere opens up with a hopeful mood and a clockwork vibe from the arpeggio and I like to think of that alluding to things getting better with time. This one conveys itself spectacularly and is a very welcoming choice for those looking for a more traditional house song influenced by the likes of Archie or Avicii.
MC-Arch – You got me, I got us | Album | Hip-Hop / Audio Drama
“This review is dedicated to a person that embodies the very believes to his core of what being a brony honesty is. That person is the one and only Joey-O. If anyone lives by the messages of this album laid by MC-Arch. It’s you, Joey, I know you’re resting up good. I and MC-Arch could not think of a better way to show how much this fandom loves you. Then to honor you this way.”

[P@D] MEQA & Arturo Höst – Amniomorphic Spell | Neurohop / IDM
Hot off the press from Ponies at Dawn: Skyward, we have been gifted with a mesmerizing piece. Opening with a very chill and laid back mood with subtle intricacies and an excellent sound stage there is an air of regal intelligence that is buttery smooth and by contrast the switchup in the song’s climax to Neurohop is down surprisingly well and hits home very hard and heavy while still blending in the atmospheric vibes of the rest of song. Excellent job MEQA and Arturo! Definitely a highlight of the album in my eyes!
The Experimental Bronies & noise.horse – Out of Limit 4: The Philosophy of Time | Compilation Album | Experimental
The Experimental Bronies have once again teamed up with noise.horse to release their fourth entry in the Out of Limit project! There is plenty of interesting and unique tunes by several artists in this one ranging from more ambient and mysterious tracks to dark and filthy tracks as well as some good ol’ hardcore tracks. Viricide Filly’s track, Seconds Into Centuries, I Let My Hair Grow was one of my favourites and I go more in detail with it in the above post, however there are many other cool gems such as Smallish Season by Detra x Danger, which is a very intriguing and groovy twist on lo-fi and hip hop-esque music while Tripon’s Cascade is a very energetic and complex neurofunk style track with their signature style with some complex sampling and abstract design decisions that make for a refreshing listen. All in all if you’re tired of hearing the ‘same old, same old’ and looking for something odd and refreshing, noise.horse has just what you are looking for!
[Equinity] GrazySmash – Magic Energy | Psytrance
Where do I begin with this absolute banger from the new Equinity album? GrazySmash is relatively new to the brony music scene, but man, is he smashing his way in! The bass in this track absolutely drives the whole thing, keeping the listener moving and grooving, wishing it would never end. Someone said the fandom needs more psytrance, and suddenly, here we are. All in all? Stellar. Can’t wait for more from this wonderful artist.
Daniel Ingram – Lotta Little Things (Toby Macarony Remix) | Electro / Ragtime
Only a day had passed from the airing of this episode before Toby came in with a very sweet and fun take on its song! This time with a swingy, ragtime vibe coupled with very punchy and groovy percussion. This remix does a lotta little things; so-to-speak to really bring out a new vibe on an already great track and is refreshing to have a little pizzazz and flare shine through even more!
