Fruity Fusion & Friends – COREPON3 | Guest Album Review | Hardcore


This review was originally posted on PonyvilleFM on 8th August 2016.

Sup mah Bronies!?

Yo, So when Fruity told me he was working on a Pony/Brony themed core album I was of course deepy interested.

As you may know, I host “No Morality” every other Friday on PonyvilleFM, which is a mashed up, mind bending hour of hardcore, speedcore, mashcore, etc… so I’m always on the lookout for great hardcore Pony music. As a huge supporter of Brony music I try not to saturate my sets too much with music from outside the fandom so this album is a breath of fresh air for me.Let’s get into it, shall we?

Various Artists – JapanPonyParty! Vol.3 | Album | Multi-Genre

We completely missed this when it first released back in May, but thanks to someone sending it in to us, we’re able to share it with you today! This compilation album featuring artists from the Japanese fandom scene was released at Japan Ponycon in May earlier this year. It features some names you might recognise (e.g. Oodoratoo2, delfino), but also has a wide variety of other artists you may never have heard of, and a huge range of genres too! The above video contains previews of each track, and the album itself can be downloaded from JPP’s website for free!

うすうすベア & KILXYU – YANDANCER (feat. Chase) | Gabber/Breakcore

fractilx brings together a couple of their aliases for something rather more dark than their usual offerings, with a super heavy hardcore track about Moondancer. I just love how they manipulate the vocal samples especially, really cool stuff.

/MLP/ Plays – >No Fun Allowed | Album | Multi-Genre


Brace yourselves everypony, because you’re about to get surprised in the most amazing ways, as we present to you the result of two years of collaborative effort from musicians of the 4chan /mlp/ board, a massive 51-tracks album of stunning quality. Featuring a wide variety of genres (even including some very unusual ones), perhaps even more variety than in the P@D or LDB albums, this heartfelt compilation of sophisticated tunes will surprise and delight as you experience its many wonders, such as the very mellow and enthralling RarityRF (#7), the emotional and surprising you-would-never-guess pony vocals from Flut (#8), the incredible vocal chops from Protocat’s remix of I’ll Fly (#11), the masterful collaboration work in To Anon Too Late (#15), one of the best and most epic remixes of Luna’s Future (#21), Feral FurE’s wonderful remix of Better Than Ever (#26), some more feels from the Out On My Own remix (#29), the original Derpy-centered Surf Rock track Surfin’ Derp (#30), the blissful piano melodies from Tree of Harmony (#32), the heartfelt realtalk combined with quality instrumental in Waifu Blues (#33), the mighty rock spirit from Eclipses (#48), or the massive party track The Club Pony Party Palace (#50) that I will feature as a solo post next. I guess the expression “Do not judge a book by its cover” works here, and you won’t be disappointed if you decide to go give the full album a proper listen (and if you would consider donating, note that all proceeds will go to charity). This music lover, for one, is blown away.

An fun little track from Henni to start off today. This song sound like it would fit into a classic Nintendo or PS1 racing game of some sort, it’s upbeat and is based around some simplified breakbeat patterns. Take a listen to start off your own Good Day.

hmh not for kids

Looking for something completely left of field? The new Pinkamena Party album is now available, with even more grimdark and mature themes than ever before! Classic Pinkamena Party artists such as sc.Dave and Dynamite Grizzly return, with features from some more “manestream” artists discovering their darker side. The bandcamp embed is after the break for obvious reasons. If you’re familiar with Pinkamena Party, you know what to expect. If not…well you’re in for a surprise.
