Tw3Lv3’s latest piece is of pure beauty, reminding of other beat-driven atmospheric chill pieces such as Hay Tea’s. What’s more, it’s sampling that certain scene with Luna appearing in Starlight’s Dream, and it’s so perfectly integrated into the mix, making for a new experience of the scene, empowered by the music! Also check out Tw3Lv3’s other recent piece, Long Live The King!
Ambient
[Equinity] Cynifree – Kodama | Ambient House
I want you to picture something in your mind, as you hear the start of this. Rainbow Dash has been challenged to a fight by Lightning Dust. They both see each other in the distance as they fly at each other over the skies of Cloudsale. That’s the first 36 seconds of this song goes before the mood changes before both Pegasi are duking it out in an epic duel. There’s just enough intensity going in and out to give this song this epic dueling music with such an emotional atmosphere. It’s fitting that my colleague Cynifree is basing this off the real Japanese Kirin lore. I invite you to listen for yourself, As always judge for yourself and see if what this Dragon Pony says it true. It only the first track of the Equinity 01: Stellar album. Not a bad start!
[Out Of Limit 4] Viricide Filly – Seconds Into Centuries, I Let My Hair Grow | Downtempo / Experimental
From noise.horse’s hottest compilation to date, Viricide has submitted their prowess for plucky, glitchy ambiances with this track. This one is not for the weak of heart! Soothing, yet harsh; loose, yet constricted. The passage of time is a complex one and this track is full of little intricacies and design choices that really showcase what noise.horse is all about! Don’t forget to check out the rest of Out of Limit 4: The Philosophy of Time for more abstract and interesting songs, trust me, its really worth the time!
Hay Tea & Age Of Vinyl – Downpour | Liquid Drum & Bass
Hay Tea and Age Of Vinyl are at it again! Downpour has an incredible outpouring of emotion right from the get go and the balance of energy and weight is astounding! The subtle vibrance and ambiances that support this track have such a deep and profound sound to them and the whole song with its meticulous melodies and whimsical harmonies flow like water. This power duo never disappoints and its always a journey seeing what comes next!
Toby Macarony – Sometimes I’m Scared | Alternate Electronic / Dark Ambient
What might just be my new favorite dark experiment from Toby, Sometimes I’m Scared is named after an aptly chosen lyric from A Changeling Can Change, sampling that song and turning its vocals into mysterious, spooky yet emotional sounds. The very Ambient-like instrumental, amazingly completed by a Funk-like backup, is doing wonders at creating a stunning experience, and I wish more dark experiments like these were being made in the community because it sure sounds so unique and emotional. A real masterpiece and culmination among Toby’s dark musical experiments, in my opinion!
[Out Of Limit 4] Nevermourn – Effigy | Ambient
The new entry in noise.horse‘s main compilation album series “Out Of Limit” is coming, releasing on June 18th along a live release party at noise.horse’s Discord server! A fine taster from the album, this incredible Ambient piece from Nevermourn is so stunning, and showcases so well the emotion and charms of the genre, with a masterful use of synths that deeply move your soul for an experience like none other. It feels like you could drift in bliss forever while listening to this! Definitely a shining success, and there will be lots more to appreciate on “Out of Limit 4: The Philosophy of Time”! Follow noise.horse’s Twitter for updates!
Saphire Systrine – Starlight | Chillout / Soundtrack
A piece that would fit well in the score of some epic movie or perhaps as the main menu BGM of some game, Starlight is an intricate yet fluffy theme that accompanies that cute artwork of Starlight and Trixie in a beautiful and refined way, and you can’t help but wonder what other creative endeavors Saphire Systrine will have in store for us in the future!
Complete Disregard for Pony Life – Paino | Noise
Pinkamena Party and noise.horse comrade and experimental music wonderpony, DAϟH has got more than one trick under his sleeve, and he’s showcasing his newest Noise adventure from the new Mixit Challenge album! As dark as you could wish, the track provides an intricate trip into unknown territories, taking you in for a unique experience that makes the charm of Noise done well. Like a dark and gritty Ambient, it immerses you in an alternate musical realm that is both eerie and beautiful!
Toby Macarony – What is this Place? | Dark Ambient
Toby Macarony’s new dark pony experience is here! As you could expect, other vocals otherwise innocent are now getting a special twisted treatment, and the Ambient atmosphere all throughout this track sure is giving much of a Silent Hill vibe, with a twist! One More!
[P@D] F 109 – Stehekin | Chillout / Electronic
F 109 always brings something mysterious and cryptic to the table and this is no exception! From Ponies At Dawn’s recent album Skyward inspired a nostalgic nigtmare from many moons ago Stehekin opens up with a foreboding organic atmosphere laden with a very immersive soundstage and is heavy with an indigenous or ethnic vibe. Theres also a really nice shift of mood by the end where the electronic grit bubbles to the surface and really brings back the tense emotion felt throughout the piece. Awesome work as always F 109 and can’t wait to see whats next!
