NB: This is an edited version of what was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 19 December 2016.
The drum & bass never stops! Here’s one from Sky Runner, collaborating with Hay Tea to produce a fusion of drum & bass with chiptune. Some of the chip sounds are a little on the harsh side, but it mixes really well with the other electronic elements to create something I’d totally dig as final boss music.
Much reminiscent of certain OSTs from Nintendo DS games, this new track from Polarhigh continues a streak of inventive musical vision with a mellow mood and happy melodies, and of course that delightful Soundtrack vibe that ravishes the soul of the gamer. Soundtrack is love, soundtrack is life!
Oh look. The sweep remix train is still going. How about that?
Jokes aside, this is pretty cool. I’m reminded a lot of the soundtracks to the old Spyro games for some reason. Perhaps not intentional in the slightest, but it gives me a reason to enjoy it more :L
Feels like forever since I last saw anything from Wind Wolf, and since I last saw any pony video game related music. I don’t know whether or not Adventure of the Lunarbolts is still in the works, but if this is the kind of music being inspired by / made for it, I hope that something’s still being developped. Go take a listen for RPG-style orchestral…if that’s a thing.
Cute song is cute. As stated in the video’s description, this is the very first song Ghost made as a ‘brony musician’. I’m impressed by his wide scope of his production, given that it ranges and changes from orchestral, to metal, and now seemingly some electronic-influenced stuff too! Definitely not a one trick pony (hahaha so original).
Better late than never, eh? NB: A small part of this review was also written by Spectra.
Hey kiddos, it’s Reverie, and while I’m busy being sad and hating myself that I haven’t been working on the Top Ten listings that much due to school and graduation and all that, I’ve written a comprehensive review, going track by track through ALL of the new Vylet release, entitled Super Pony World. Since we don’t want to exclude some of the deluxe version material, this is going to cover all of the base tracks plus a couple of the original pieces from the deluxe version. So, let’s hop right into it after the break!
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!
Chiptune and hardcore are 2 genres that often seem to work together, and I suppose that’s why Midli and Techniponi went for that in this collab. Although sounding a tad lacking in the synth design, it merits posting for its melodies and reminiscence to older fandom pieces.
Have something that I have no idea how to label effectively! We saw Crusader’s Party of Two a few weeks ago, a cute song telling a love story about Pinkie. Now Homage McGee, who recently ended his previous absence from the brony music scene has made this poppy electronic remix of it with plenty of chiptune elements. Something pretty unique if you ask me!
Much to our delight, Direct Current releases a much unique piece centered around the wonderful pony that is Pinkie, acting both as an awesome tribute and a musical experience of many wonders. What’s so interesting in this lively-as-Pinkie track, is that many distinct musical genres are represented, from Orchestral to Rock, and even with little Chiptune-ish notes! Hop, skip, jump and follow Pinkie in this crazy adventure!
