To our greatest delight, Chang31ing returns with gentle Fluttervibes in this soft Ambient track sampling the classic “Hush”, and making for a blissful experience among soothing synths and Fluttershy’s voice! So happy that we’re getting more Ambient from the community!
SDreamExplorerS – Ephemeral II: Parallels | Album | Prog Rock / Prog Metal
SDreamExplorerS’ newest album is here, and boy does it deliver! Always sparked from deep experiences and pony inspirations, and calling the listener to reflect, this one takes us on quite the unique journey as it features such a wide array of genres! And you can tell how much love has been poured into each of the tracks, ranging from Progressive Metal to Ambient to Samba to Jazz and even to crazy bass play! (Perhaps there needs to be a new genre to fit to Soul’s unique musical endeavors in these!) An impressive compilation of reflections and meticulously crafted masterpieces that is just a must-have! Grab your copy from a Bandcamp near you!
N4ghtwolf – Open Your Eyes (feat. Skylat & Liv & Learn) (Covering Aviators) | Orchestral
Covering a cherished community classic as a heartfelt tribute, N4ghtwolf gathered the help of Skylat and Liv & Learn to spark into creation this beautiful rendition of Aviators’ Open Your Eyes. The starry piano and orchestral arrangement is complementing so well the gorgeous vocals, and the trio definitely did wonders!
Ditherer – The Game of Riddles (prod. Steryotype) | Hip-Hop
Part of Ditherer’s recent streak of inspired pony tunes, this song about Somnambulan lore is extending the Sphinx’s role with more depth and clever riddles, and always in Ditherer’s very cool rapping! Also check out Incidental Unicorn #2 about Lyra!
Agents of Discord – Odds & Ends | Album | Breakbeat
Full of many tasty pony Breakbeat bangers, this new album from Agents of Discord will surprise you in many ways, with a wide diversity of themes and lots of musical wonders all around! Many tracks exhibit such a creative musical vision and very cool endeavors in sound design, and the ideas behind the themes are just so lovely. To name a few, the opener Chrysalis’ Take Over is bringing an onslaught by our beloved Queen, Crystal Cave Rave (in 3 parts + a VIP) is kicking off a gig inside the crystal caves beneath Canterlot’s castle that we saw in the S2 finale, Ultimate Sweetie Belle and Ultimate Scootaloo are definitely living up to their names, and Saddle GameZ is such a excellent mashup! Lots of fun to experience while partying hard to these treats! And if you missed the live release party, you can watch the recording of it here! I was lucky to be able to attent it, and it was amazing!! I definitely recommend noise.horse‘s live release parties to anypony who hasn’t experienced it yet!
Daniel Ingram – Out On My Own (NeverLastStanding Remix) (Remastered) | Future Bass
Every new release by NeverLastStanding feels like fireworks of community love and pony passion! In preparation for his gig with loophoof at Everfree Northwest’s After Party on May 18th, our beloved Hype Horse crafted this remaster that brings some Apple Bloom love anew along with an exclusive orchestral part that is as gorgeous as it is emotional! I say that’s a performance you definitely don’t wanna miss if you attend Everfree Northwest!
[P@D] Suskii – Mischievous Deed | Electro
My good friend Suskii composed this wonderful song about Chrysalis’s creation of the Mean Six, and it is an absolute delight to listen to. Her voice lines are sprinkled in between wubs, zrils, and screes, and the resulting song is a very special Suskii experience: essentially, a scene from an episode to amazing music! Melodically, too, this song is just overflowing with emotion.

[P@D] Silva Hound – Glimmer Time (R3CTIFIER Remix) | Dubstep
R3CTIFIER has put together a remix of Silva Hound’s song about my favorite pony, Starlight Glimmer! Her lines from Our Town are wonderfully pitch-shifted and set along a comfortably energetic beat. R3CTIFIER’s classic drops feature prominently too, and throughout it all we hear Starlight’s commanding voice!
You can get the song on the new Ponies at Dawn here.
Flittzy – Where the Days Have Gone | Alternative Rock
You can always expect something fantastic from Flittzy and this time, it comes with a lot of sentimentality! Fresh off the new Ponies at Dawn: Skyward compilation, Where the Days Have Gone is a touching piece detailing Flittzy’s love for this fandom. The song begins with a fantastic opening piano melody with violins accompanying. The track uses the piano with rock guitars throughout and makes for a well-stylized sound! Flittzy’s always excellent vocals reverberate his message about how fast time seems to move.
[P@D] RoomVR & Zephysonas – Starlight Sanctuary | Ambient/Orchestral
5 seconds into this song I was already in love with it! The vibrant sounds mixed with the perfect chords surround you as only pros like RoomVR and Zephysonas can craft. Starlight Sanctuary is a gorgeous instrumental that sets a peaceful nighttime landscape around you. The strings harmonize together wonderfully, reaching a deep level of emotions as if that is how nature intended. As explained by RoomVR, “This track is about my love for the night. I wanted to portray the feelings that I experience while looking up at the stars; feelings of love and comfort, wonder and awe… and peace.” This track as well as many other amazing songs are available now on Ponies at Dawn: Skyward!
