Einarx releases a hard-hitting, melodic masterwork. It’s difficult to place this song in a box, because it has elements of dubstep, house, and trap. But there’s no question that it’s a fantastic song. Its immense drums and soft bells are amazing on their own, but paired with Rusyd’s vocals? It’s electrifying. Really looking forward to the EP!
[LDB] Totalspark – Dancing in the Moonlight VIP | Future Bass
The responsibility of a community compilation album’s closing track is not one that should be underestimated. While it plays little part in keeping the listener hooked, it determines the finish, the aftertaste which lingers for hours after one has concluded one’s first playthrough, and is quite instrumental to the first impression.
On the newest LDB release Beats Me 3, Totalspark takes care of all this flawlessly with his new take on Dancing in the Moonlight.
While the original is well over a year old and relied on excellent use of negative space and beautiful piano composition to carry it, the 2017 VIP is quite different in execution, if not in concept. Totalsparks once again proves that he can uphold the quality benchmark set by his latest releases, utilising beautiful arps, crisp percussion and lush chords to create an immersive and satisfying experience. A brand new lead synth guides you through both energetic drops, and the track culminates in a gorgeous piano outro.

[LDB] Tripon – Queen of the Cavern | Dub
For his first release after the name tweak—specifically, the introduction of a pony specific alias—Tripon embraces his previously underexposed halftime side.
Queen of the Cavern is a brilliantly produced specimen of an underground genre that has not been traditionally represented within the fandom, and is as such an even more welcome release. Tripon sources inspiration from the still-fresh Season 7 episode Rock Solid Friendship, which is prominently sampled within the tune, to construct a scenario in which Maud instrumentalises her in-depth knowledge of Equestrian geology to its full extent. The result is a marvellous subwoofer workout that is as minimal & hard as Maud’s emotional pallet, which also further diversifies the arsenal of genres 2017 pony music can offer its listeners.

[P@D] Budzy – The Time’s Come | Dubstep
Budzy is at it again with some sick wubs, and this time they come with a big dose of Flutterbat. The vocal samples from the show work really well, especially when they’re chopped up in the second drop, and there’s a generous helping of strong chords and crunchy wobbles. The flow is exceptional through the track, so make sure to check it out below!
[P@D] BlueBrony – Tale Of The Valley Colts (feat. Cadie) | Folk/Orchestral
BlueBrony’s works always stand out for being quite different to what everybody else is doing, and here is probably his best example of that yet! With some beautiful storytelling in the way of lovely smooth vocals, some terrific voice acting segments and an array of different images that help to convey the lyrics, there’s obviously a lot of thought that’s gone into telling this tale. The orchestral instruments are all lovely too, and perfectly complement the vocals that weave a story of a valiant colt defending his home from a terrifying dragon. Check it out below!
[P@D] DJT & UndreamedPanic – Ragnarok | Bass House
DJT has been quite the genre chameleon recently, his style evolving to suit his collaborative partner, and this time is no different! UndreamedPanic is the fandom’s king of bass house and it totally shows here as in combination with DJT there is a whole heap of neat sound design on show. Featuring some lovely soft and well-textured breaks to give some contrast as well, this is otherwise quite the banger. Check it out below!
PrinceWhateverer – False Crown (feat. Sable Symphony) | Metal
Some more new music from Prince! Featuring some help from Sable Symphonies with the vocals, there’s a whole heap to like about this one. Classic Prince vocals, awesome guitars and powerful drums combine to help make this a pretty kick-ass track! Check it out below!
Silva Hound – Sound Of The Summer (feat. Nowaking & Lyde) | House
Another new track from Silva, this is his BronyCon track and features vocals from both Nowaking and Lyde. The vocals throughout are pretty awesome, and the summer-y way the track builds up is super fun too, before dropping into some future-influenced big room interspersed by some neat sound design. Check it out below the break!
[ASOS] fractilx & UndreamedPanic – Enter | Trance
A helping of fractilx from A State Of Sugar’s recent Lollipop album! This is their collab with UndreamedPanic, which combines a fast-paced beat with fractilx’s signature hardcore synth sounds and some really great melodies through the piece.
[P@D] UndreamedPanic – Flying Higher | Progressive House
UndreamedPanic has produced some pretty awesome bass house tracks recently, but he’s gone back to his roots a bit more with this latest release. Featuring good use of vocals and excellent synth melodies, this is definitely a super groovy track, and it comes packaged with some nice footage of Twilight’s battle with Tirek. Check it out below the break!
