Flyghtning has brought back their Hornwerk side project – a ponification of Kraftwerk – for another cover/parody. This time it’s their take on The Model, Kraftwerk’s most popular song from the 80s, having turned it into a song about Rarity…
Cover
Vocal Score – The Spectacle | Electronic
Vocal Score has taken a very unique take on The Spectacle for us. I don’t really know what genre to call this, but boooy is it dark and his vocals add a real intensity to the song, especially holding those long “oooooh” notes – I’m getting shivers! Nice work Vocal Score, what a voice you have!
Daniel Ingram – Unleash The Magic (Elias Frost Metal Cover)
One of the most epic songs from the third EQG movie, Unleash The Magic, has just been granted a new musical direction from master of Metal covers Elias Frost, and it is definitely a much welcome addition. Way to unleash the power of metal!

Francis Vace – Luna | Punk
More fandom classic covers from Francis Vace! This time it’s his take on Luna, the first ever fandom song with vocals (free fun fact for you), with a…different take on some of the lyrics. If you’re familiar with a certain other cover Francis did, you’ll know what I mean, go check this out!
Vocal Score – Out On My Own | Acoustic
Vocal Score gives us a wonderfully stripped back and natural performance here in this cover of Out On My Own, complete with fantastically mixed harmonies. I always love hearing well-made acoustic pieces, it shows that you don’t need a full band or innovative sound design – sometimes a voice and a guitar is all it takes. Great job Vocal Score!
Mason al’Cat – Got My Friendship On | Country
Yeeeeehaw, it’s about time we got some country music ’round these parts! Mason al’Cat brings us a ponification of Got My Country On by Chris Cagle, with a little bit of help from voice actress Hannah May. Check it out, it’s more dandy than a…than a fruit bat in a…in a…well I’m not good with countryisms…
Amalun3us – Variations of Hush Now, Quiet Now | Piano Sonata
Event Horizon released a pretty interesting piano cover of the classic Hush Now Lullaby, under the Amalun3us name. This feels like something we would hear in the Grand Galloping Gala concert room! Surely both Fluttershy and Octavia would approve.
Dasha & The Living Tombstone – Good Girl (Denz Xavier & StormBlaze Cover) | Rock
Talented musicians and singers Denz Xavier and StormBlaze have teamed up to create a wonderful cover of the classic Good Girl, in sweet rock fashion served with a subtle alt rock/indie taste. Let yourself get pleasantly surprised by the delightful sound of Denz’s guitar and the lovely vocals from StormBlaze that are giving that song a whole new unique feel!
AwkwardMarina – Open Your Eyes | Acapella
What’s this? Acapella songs, on my music site? Not only do we not see this style of performance very often, it’s the first we’ve seen from AwkwardMarina in a while, a what a way to come back. Go check out this incredible acapella cover of Aviators’ classic song Open Your Eyes.
