Don’t be deceived by the House genre, because just like a changeling in disguise, it could hide many unexpected twists! UndreamedPanic contributes to A State of Sugar Bubblegum with another stunning track, this time changeling-themed. Expert sounds and compositional prowess are doing wonders once more as this very stylish and refined tune unfolds.
Jyc Row – The Crystalling | Orchestral
Releasing old gems from the past is often a treat, and this one from Jyc Row themed around the Crystalling of Flurry Heart is a much welcome addition to our music library! Grand and regal melodies and instruments are depicting the event in a wonderful way, and bagpipes are leading the ceremony as one of Jyc’s signature musical styles.
Glitchling – Censorship | Dubstep
Our friendly neighborhood Glitchling has ventured into the heavier genres of EDM and brings us a tasty and refined Dubstep beauty! The sick wubs and sharp sound design are delivering the power of heavy bass as the iDubbbz samples are amusingly calling back to some of the corners of our community after dark… A real treat and token of Glitchling’s talent and hard work!
AntaresPony – a pommel tune | Ambient
AntaresPony, a new pony musician who appeared recently, keeps it up with the wonderful Ambient releases like a real fan! Showcasing a distinct musical identity as well as unique aesthetics in the videos, AntaresPony tells beautiful pony-inspired tales through music, and this one is centered around our beloved Coco Pommel! It is quite emotional with many instruments coming into play and an atmosphere like no other. It even features vocal samples from Coco for added emotion, mixed in with much talent!
Also check out the other delightful tune they released along this one, the starlight i love.
The Beatle Bronies – Magical Mystery Cure | Classic Rock
After a three-year hiatus, The Beatle Bronies are finally back, this time with new drummer Wootmaster! This time, they bring a great new parody (one that lends itself way too easily to the original) named the controversial but beloved season 3 finale of the same name. The authenticity to the Beatles’ sound is on-point here and it should be enough to please any longtime Beatle Bronies fan!
Lorris – Hyperdrive | Album | Electronic
Lorris’s new album is jam-packed with delightful wubbly goodness. Dubstep, drumstep, trap, and more are all represented here, with an overarching cybernetic theme. Every song is amazing, and there’s enough variation to keep you engaged throughout the album. Songs like Dropshot are guttural and bassy, while Particles Storm is crisp and dark. It’s pay what you want, so go give it a listen!
Radiarc – Loose | Post-Rock
Quite a cathartic song this one is! Taking musical inspiration from Chris Christodoulou and his Risk of Rain soundtrack, this is some of the most unique post-rock I’ve ever heard. From saxophone to turntable scratches, this track lifts elements from all over the musical spectrum. The drums are punchy and attention-grabbing without being “epic,” and the breaks throughout (featuring some heavenly vocal samples and strings) are just lovely. Clearly, this was a very important track for Radiarc to release, judging by the description and the song itself, so go show him some love!
Zephysonas – Pinkie PiErate | Orchestral
Something a bit different than the usual orchestral that comes out of the fandom, Zephysonas perfectly encapsulates the feeling of being a pirate, as the strings lend themselves quite well to a pirate’s drinking song! Likely taking inspiration from the Pony Point of View (P.P.O.V.) episode, this is a treat in 3/4 time for anyone into the pirate aesthetic. “Care for a diamond?!”
AntaresPony – a luna tune | Ambient
This is a nice surprise from Antares, who appears to be new to the MLP scene. This is a a very relaxing and atmospheric piece about Luna. The song itself really makes you think almost as if in retrospect about all of the hardships our Princess has faced and all of the guilt she holds on to as the world goes by around her. At least; That is how I see it. The artist leaves much of the tune up for interpretation which is quite nice in fact. What do you take away from it?
[ASOS] Zizkil – Carnivorous Lust Queen | Drumstep
Another release from A State of Sugar’s recent compilation album, Bubblegum, this track showcases Zizkil’s penchant for inventive sound design and combining elements from different genres seamlessly. It also features some wonderful original art by Fizzle Soda! The mix is clean enough to please purists and heavy enough to satisfy the headbangers. It combines elements of trap, drum & bass, dubstep, and even a bit of orchestral. It’s a pretty frantic track and perfectly evokes the chaos of a Changeling invasion and Queen Chrysalis commandeering it all. If crazy sound design and heavy uptempo music is your thing, or if you’ve enjoyed Zizkil’s work in the past, this ain’t one to miss.
