[P@D] 4EverfreeBrony & Drummershy – Angels In Disguise | Progressive Metal
There’s always something that blows me away on each Ponies At Dawn album, and I’ve found what Zenith has brought to the table. 4EverfreeBrony is no stranger to prog rock, having previously taken inspiration from Rush, but bringing Drummershy’s influence from Dream Theater into the mix has resulted in this masterpiece! You experience a full range of dynamics, from atmospheric guitars with precisely detailed percussion, to full punchy riffs with synths and string orchestration. Go take a listen for an epic 6 minutes of prog goodness!

But that’s not all – we’ll be bringing all of the pre-releases from P@D’s YouTube channel throughout the day leading up to the mane event this evening, so watch this space for some previews of what’s in store for the rest of the album!
Daniel Ingram – Friendship Always Wins (JTH Remix) | House
If you thought “Friendship Always Wins” couldn’t feel any more uplifting, just wait until you hear JoinedTheHerd’s remix! Warm plucked chords lay the foundation for top-notch vocal chops and a synth lead melody full of heart, both of which are absolute earworms! If you’ve been looking for a positivity boost, look no further – crank up this tune and feel the magic blossom.
MelodyBrony – F.I.N. | Metal
Melody returns with an anthem based on the season 9 finale of MLP:FiM and full of determination, displaying a wonderful fusion of metal and pop elements. Dramatic strings, an infectious hook, and Melody’s bright voice pleading for reassurance and strength are sure to get your head banging. Turn that volume up and raise your hooves high – the only way to play this song is at full blast!
Frozen Night – The Light and Its Shadows | Orchestral
Frozen Night’s latest release shows us a piece written a few years ago for the fan game Ambient.White! This piece seems to narrate the aftermath of a battle, and builds some tension while maintaining a sense of determination. It’s as if, despite the hardships of battle, there’s a way through at the end. Check it out for a short but sweet piece of OST!

Sprocket – Redemptio Lunae | Hybrid Orchestral
Inspired by their piece, “Luna’s Redemption” releasing nearly a decade ago as well as the journey that this fandom has taken Sprocket on through all the years since, “Redemptio Lunae” may bare little resemblance to the former track, but it compliments it very well!
Mournful yet hopeful, this piece makes very good use of tension and has an atmosphere with plenty of intriguing instrumentation that compliment each other wonderfully. From sustained strings to brass folly, emotional and complex piano runs and choir chants there are also some well utilized e-pianos and synth arpeggios that really add to the mood. And don’t get me started on the crisp, low harpsichord in the opening act that’s subtly hypnotic! At six minutes, there’s plenty to unpack with this song and each section has a distinct, yet subtle shift in tone which all flow together seamlessly. Have I mentioned this is their first MLP related track in five years? Its a welcome return and I am excited to see where we go from here!
