ertrii – Overcoming | Chill House

Never a stranger to wonderful relaxing music, ertrii brings us this beautiful original track. Words can hardly describe the emotions this one evokes. With deeper kicks and beautiful plucks on the synth, it feels almost like you are gliding through clouds. And, as if this was the intention, beautiful guitars reminiscent of Soaring Flight’s music come in and completely steal your soul.

Suskii – Chaos | Dubstep

Taken from the brand new BUGSQUAD EP, this new track from Suskii has some great sound design, with plenty of growls and other bass sounds that gel together perfectly. I love the use of a harmonic minor key too, it adds an even darker feel to the song.

Suskii’s BUGSQUAD EP is available to download from Bandcamp, entirely for free!

Totalspark – Meditation | Downtempo

Totalspark brings us an absolute delight in the form of a beautiful chillout track. Titled Meditation, the track will truly take you over and pull you in a wonderful journey though sound. Gentle pads, beautiful slow melodies and deep bass, it is almost a dream-like experience listening to this wonderful track.

Lunar Drift – Balance In The Night | Orchestral Electronic

NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 5 June 2017.

Lunar Drift returns with a new orchestral-flavoured electronic piece. There’s some nice piano melodies, strong strings and neat percussion and rolling basslines, as well as some subtle guitar later on in the piece.

ertrii – It’s Friendship | Progressive House

Ertrii’s on a roll!! A third release and so soon, this one brings back what is probably the musician’s signature genre, a Progressive House full of mellow and emotional vibes over an amazing progression, this time with the addition of pony vocal chops that are just as wonderful and well-made as the instrumental. One More!

Exiark & Flittzy – Another Star (Einarx Remix) | Dubstep

Remixing the incredible Another Star from Exiark and Flittzy is no easy task, yet Einarx took the challenge and sublimated Flittzy’s vocals along a sick and melodic Dubstep instrumental. You can always count on Einarx for all the hard-hitting greatness, and this remix is definitely a success!

ertrii – Never Imagined | Drum & Bass

Taking on pony vocal chopping, Ertrii now created magic out of Apple Bloom‘s gorgeous vocals from Out On My Own. With a crafty and blissful instrumental full of slick sound design and the deep atmosphere fitting for a haunting environment like the Everfree Forest, it delivers an incredible experience of sound and emotional vocal chops.

ertrii – Tiny Seed | Chillstep

Ertrii’s back again with a wonderful release, and this one features classic Winter Wrap Up Applejack vocals, chopped in an unique way! The track also presents heavier Dubstep-y parts, and they make for an amazing exploration into new depths. Overall the song still remains a very soothing and emotional experience, Ertrii’s signature.
