[ASOS] Greyfade – Moribund | Psytrance

Coming from the most recent A State Of Sugar compilation, Candy, Greyfade bring us a psychedelic trip with Moribund! The bass, that it’s the most important element in psytrance, is really well performed, as with the drops, I love how Greyfade build the drops and the suspense between the first drop and the second drop with the ambient and orchestral elements is pretty well made! It really takes you to an amazing trip, a song that you should not forget to listen! Good job on this one Greyfade, I’m proud! Covering a genre that it’s quickly forgotten by the fandom and only 2 or 3 of people in the fandom produce it as main genre!

If you want to listen to more amazing songs with amazing histories and voyages, download or buy Candy! An amazing experience that you should not forget!

[ASOS] Violin Melody – Swan | Progressive House / Trance

Coming from the most recent A State Of Sugar compilation, Candy, Violin Melody delivers her amazing mixing between House and Trance, making a unique driving night be crazy and uplifting! The drums are pretty well choose and the synth work is really amazing! The danceable feeling of House is there, also with the emotional and uplifting Trance elements! An experience that you will assist by only listening! This track is a sneak-peak of Violin’s first EP Swan, hyped for that!

I’m hoping that while you reading this you are downloading or buying Candy. Violin Melody and ObscureDragon did a lot of work for this album exists! This write up was made with love for ASoS, one of the best places for horse music! (Kisses from the meme lord of ASoS 😉 )

eksoka – Advanced Magic | Progressive Trance

NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 21 November 2017.

eksoka’s production just keeps improving this year! Probably my personal favourite track from the new Candy album by A State Of Sugar, this piece is full of awesome electro sounds wrapped up in a trance-y coating. The flow through the track is exemplary, and the power of the sounds is terrific.

Modern Bard – Life In Clouds | Ambient / Chillout

A new treat from Modern Bard, this much Ambient-like piece does a great job at reflecting the peacefulness of living in the clouds, as well as the mysterious, ethereal vibe that there is to it and the conquest of the skies and new horizons. A much delightful piece!

[ASOS] MrMehster – S0AR | Drum & Bass

Here are some sweet DnB vibes coming from MrMehster, here, featured on A State of Sugar’s recent album, Candy!  The sound design is fun and lighthearted, and the vocal chops make for an awesome lead.  With the Japanese vocals in there, combined with the overall feel of the track, it almost sounds future bass-like with a DnB drum pattern and tempo; very interesting idea there!  Nice job, MrMehster!

[ASOS] Zizkil – Midnight Daydreams | House

More ASOS! This time Zizkil brings a rather short but sweet house track drawing elements from bass house and complextro, while maintaining an overall pretty chill feel. It’s something a bit different from their usual style, but it’s always nice to see people branch out a little.

Filly In The Box – Hoofprints In The Snow | Dubstep

NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 22 November 2017.

More Filly In The Box good-ness! A soft spooky intro is followed by some some cool plucks that lead into some infectiously groovy pony vocal chops that mix well with some lovely bass sounds. That theme of combining chops with electro sound design continues throughout the track and is done excellently.

[ASOS] Zero Chaotic – Despair (feat. Butterflight & Project Mo)))rd) | Ambient

Zero Chaotic, Butterflight and Project Mo)))rd have the open slot on the new A State of Sugar, and their track starts it off amazingly by beginning with a lovely atmosphere provided by some really nice pads. The solo strings help build this wonderful emotional section and the subtle drums wrap it all together wonderfully. I really like the rain sounds present throughout as it helps maintain the feelings through the song.

Candy is available to download from A State of Sugar’s bandcamp page, completely for free (but you can donate if you’re feeling generous).
