Francis Vace has been on a binge of covering prominent songs from the earlier days of the fandom, and continuing that trend he brings us an upbeat ska cover of one of PrinceWhateverer’s track from early January, Not Letting Go. Unsurprisingly, it works great!
NeoN & Xavi – Penumbra (Techoh Girl Remix) | Electronic
The winner of Neon and Xavi’s recent remix competition, this track doesn’t really stick to one particular sub-genre. It flows from House to Dubstep and back again and shares some of the ethereal dark vibes of the original.
Rockin’Brony – Equestrian Idiot (Green Day Parody) | Punk Rock
Rockin’Brony remade his ponification of Green Day’s American Idiot that he originally released back in December 2014. (Another remake of a ponification, in such a short time after Mason al’Cat released his, such a coincidence!) Some major improvements in this version, in which we can experience a cleaner sound and sweet guitar play, and Rockin’s very Green Day-ish vocals that definitely pay much tribute to that song… the pony way!
Mason al’Cat – Luna My Sweet Sister (John Denver Parody) | Folk Rock
Master of Classic Rock ponifications Mason al’Cat strikes once again with a remake of his pony take on John Denver’s My Sweet Lady that he originally made back in 2012. Partake in good old Folk Rock bliss as a mighty tribute to Luna unfolds, told through Celestia’s feelings!
Voltage Remedy – Airstrike | Electro-House
More electronic horse music from Voltage Remedy; he’s definitely getting better with his music! Check it out for just a fun danceable Electro-House track to get your groove on to.
BL1NKY – Seahorses | Dubstep
Finally out a reasonable amount of time after the Ponies at Dawn: Starlit Flames album was actually released is this catchy tune from BL1NKY (formerly Core-Ridor), filled with sound design that evokes the feel of sailing on the high seas. This is one of my favourite tracks from Starlit Flames, and well worth checking out!
Totalspark – Carefree | Future Bass
Totalspark is back from a vacation, and wouldn’t ya know it, his new song kinda sounds like a vacation feels. With lush pads and summer breeze-y leads; have a listen and have yourself a quick vacation too.
Griffin Village – Autumn (Technickel Pony Edit) | Hardstyle
Griffin Village’s Seasons EP is one of the early fandom’s works that has best stood the test of time. Autumn is a classic, and this remix is goofy and irreverent in all the right way and I love it.
Jyc Row – Alicornae EP | Orchestral
After 5 months in the making, Jyc Row is proud to present his debut EP – Alicornae. Based around the 4 princesses of Equestria, something something potential spoilers, this EP explores each of these characters one by one, with a finale to wrap it up in a neat little bow at the end. Let’s get into it shall we? Full writeup after the break…
Community album to support TheLostNarrator
Hey guys, I’m sure plenty of you know about the situation regarding TheLostNarrator (and if you don’t, perhaps check out this video), and our friends over at the Top Ten Pony Songs are doing something to help. I’ll hand over to Reverie to explain; you can watch the embedded video above or read his press release below…
Hey all! My name is Reverie, and you probably know me from the Top Ten Pony Songs countdown.
Lost Narrator—an active member of the pony community—was rushed to the hospital only a little while ago to have emergency surgery on an ovarian cyst that had gone unnoticed for a long, long time. The problem lies in the medical and recovery bills that will follow the procedure. If you don’t live in the United States, you have to know that the healthcare system here is certainly less than perfect, in many ways. Needless to say, she needs help to pay these bills.
Horse Friends (the record company that I manage) is releasing a special compilation album of never before seen tracks by some of the fandom’s top artists, including Lavender Harmony, GatoPaint, PON3, Vylet, and many, many more. This album will be priced fairly low (between $5 and $10 U.S.), and 100% of the proceeds will be going to Lost Narrator in order to make her expenses less expensive. This album will be coming out very, very soon, so be ready for that.
We here at Horse Friends hope you pick up the album (and donate a little extra if you can afford it!) so that Lost can get back on her feet and back to making great content for this wonderful community.
Thank you!
~Reverie
