Our own Spectra’s moving up in the world, having recently passed 2000 subscribers. In order to thank everybody who helped him get there, he’s released this really cute cover of what was arguably PhonyBrony’s most celebrated fandom track. Make sure to check it out if you like acoustic stuff
Virus Ponies – Lern off the dream (ft. EnderAsieg) | Chillout
I’m not quite sure if that’s a typo or what, but hey, the song’s pretty cool! It’s a nice chill piece with plenty of melodies bouncing back and forth, and some breakbeat-esque drums to hold a good rhythm alongside them.
GhostXb – From Shadows (Piano Theme for King Sombra) | Piano Sonata
Following on from previous works inspired by the same IDW comic story arc, and even keeping the live element of one of them, GhostXb has a new solo piano piece. I always enjoy seeing songs actually made, it does add a nice personal touch and you really appreciate the work that is put in a lot more. Anyway, go listen to this lovely composition from GhostXb, and if you want, download the EP with both piano solos on it!
Budzy – Summer Smiles EP | Electronic
A long time coming, after over a year of hanging around the brony music scene and making songs, Budzy’s finally released his debut EP, Summer Smiles. In this EP you can be sure to find plenty of custom sounds that he’s been building over the past several months, self-taught n everything. Continue reading for the full writeup.
Viricide Filly – Stuck in the Sky | House
A fun little house track from Viricide Filly, which features, for the first time, their own “proper vocals”. Apparently it’s part of an upcoming album too, so that’s something else to look forward too!
Crusader! – Soaring | Alt Rock
It’s been a long time coming, but Crusader! has finally reached 1,000 subscribers on YouTube, and what a well-deserved milestone it is too! Have a classic Crusader-sounding song, some pop-punk / alt rock with a hint of harmonica.
StallionSlaughter – Giggle at the Ghostly (covering Daniel Ingram) | Metal
Light and upbeat song? Check. Low tuned guitar? Check. Heavy a f breakdown? Of course! This cover of Giggle at the Ghostly may be pretty short (then again, the original is only like a minute long) but brilliantly produces as per usual with Stallionslaughter’s songs, and this one also features his family on backing vocals! The more the merrier, eh?
fractilx – GUYS’ NIGHT RPG | Jazz Fusion
An interesting piece here, it’s been a while since I last heard jazz fused with electronic, but fractilx seems to have made it work nicely. Check this out for funky electronic beats and smooooooooth sax!
Acouste Wholenote – Letting Go | Alt Rock
Acouste Wholenote remains one of my favourite singer/songwriters currently active in the fandom. He has a real knack for writing lyrics and his music has a nice little 90s / 00s alt rock influence that always sits well in my books. Anyway, this song focuses on Spike’s ongoing obsession with fashion hors, and adds another song into Acouste’s repertoire (did someone say album? o.o)
Secret Metal – Faster Than A Lightning | Metal
In case you were in need of something to completely blow you away, Secret Metal has a new speed metal(? halp I don’t know metal subgenres) song! Even though I’m not heavily invested into the metal scene, I know an amazingly produced song when I hear one. Huge props to Secret Metal for this one!
