Thrack – Life Among the Stars | Acoustic

Thrack’s latest work is a lovely tune about ponies venturing into outer space of all places! While their journey might be cold, the warmth of Thrack’s acoustic guitar and gorgeous three part harmony is surely enough to live by. And who can turn down a couple of jolly mandolin solos? In addition to all the feel-good lyrics of friendship and camaraderie, there’s also some more mischievous undertones. Did they really leave Equestria in a “wreck”? I pray to Celestia they didn’t, but who knows what will happen next if they succeed in finding life among the stars.

Blurain – Breaking The Day | Alt. Rock

It is always nice to see a new name dip their toe (hoof?) in the brony music scene, especially when they’ve been a part of the fandom for nearly a decade prior. Blurain’s second pony track “Breaking the Day” features an amazing buildup to brilliant overlaying vocals/harmonies as well as showcases his incredible talent at the guitar. However, it is the overall message of the song that shines the brightest to me as it speaks of Daybreaker’s persuasion to let Celestia unleash her “darker” side. Umm, yes please! Absolutely perfect in conjunction to his guitar style. I certainly cannot wait to see what other pieces Blurain has in store for the future.

El Nulevoe – Power Metal Carton Horse 2: The Powering | Power Metal

CW: plenty of explicit lyrics

Okay, so El Nulevoe is back with a sequel to his “Power Metal Carton Horse”, aptly named “Power Metal Carton Horse 2: The Powering.” It’s an epic story of the protagonist as he races to warn Princess Celestia of incoming attacks from both King Sombra and Nightmare Moon! The energy level of the track is so high that you’ll be thrashing as hard as you’re laughing with its insane guitar riffs and irreverent lyrics about this “brave hero, whatever his name is.” There’s plenty of witty wordplay throughout, and it even breaks the fourth wall, adding to the humor. It ends with an amazing guitar solo, but is it enough for our hero to succeed? Make sure to tune in to find out!

rawrity is once again returning, and absolutely setting the scene ON FIRE with epic pony vocals mixed in through the tune. Delivering an absolutely lovely vibe with which you’ll dance the night away! Nothing is more beautiful, than when you can share the feeling with someone who also feels the spark has been lit! And maybe, even bringing you together… It’ll be ok regardless, you WILL feel the love! ❤ This song is, as mentioned in the comments, a bop! and I applaud rawr for delivering an amazing track for us to enjoy!

Vylet Pony – Carousel (An Examination of the Shadow, Creekflow, and its Life as an Afterthought) | Multi-Genre Album

Over half a year in the making, and actualizing concepts from the last five years, Vylet Pony’s new album is jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring, and breathtaking. It is an album shroud in mystery as its narrative follows the protagonist and their shadow through a plethora of genres, each track morphing seamlessly into the next, starting with heavenly soundscapes before descending into darkness and death, only to turn around and ascend back to its harmonious beginnings. Much of the story is incomplete, and the listener is invited to theorize more about it. Throughout the album you’ll hear samples from previous Vylet songs, the classic “Sing a song about life” clip, as well as a new carousel motif.
