Hey everyone. So, remember the announcement about that charity album we made a couple of days ago? Well it’s been finished and released! More details are on the Bandcamp page but basically, any funds needed to help TheLostNarrator will go to her surgery and medical fees, and anything raised past the $1,500 threshold will be given to a charity of her choice.
Cover
Crusader! – Call Upon the Sea Ponies | Acoustic
♪ Shoo be doo~ ♫ Not much else to post today, so have a fun little cover from Crusader of a burden from the past we cannot forget everyone’s favourite Gen 1 song. Ukuleles ahoy!
PrinceWhateverer – Not Letting Go (Francis Vace Cover) | Ska
Francis Vace has been on a binge of covering prominent songs from the earlier days of the fandom, and continuing that trend he brings us an upbeat ska cover of one of PrinceWhateverer’s track from early January, Not Letting Go. Unsurprisingly, it works great!
Rockin’Brony – Equestrian Idiot (Green Day Parody) | Punk Rock
Rockin’Brony remade his ponification of Green Day’s American Idiot that he originally released back in December 2014. (Another remake of a ponification, in such a short time after Mason al’Cat released his, such a coincidence!) Some major improvements in this version, in which we can experience a cleaner sound and sweet guitar play, and Rockin’s very Green Day-ish vocals that definitely pay much tribute to that song… the pony way!
Mason al’Cat – Luna My Sweet Sister (John Denver Parody) | Folk Rock
Master of Classic Rock ponifications Mason al’Cat strikes once again with a remake of his pony take on John Denver’s My Sweet Lady that he originally made back in 2012. Partake in good old Folk Rock bliss as a mighty tribute to Luna unfolds, told through Celestia’s feelings!
Francis Vace – Entropy | Punk
A bonus track on his recent EP of covers, Souvenirs, Francis originally covered this AwkwardMarina song a couple of years ago. This is a rework of that version, involving some re-recording and some re-mastering, and is one of my favourites from the EP.
Risen – Soul Meets Soul | Electro House
Here’s something we don’t frequently see: a cover of an existing EDM song. Originally “Pony Meets Pony” by Sim Gretina, Risen has covered the composition with his own design choices. Also note that Risen is now also operating under the alias Age of Vinyl and you’ll be able to find the links to his new channel in the video description.
Prince Whateverer – Constellations (Aaron MacAllister Cover) | Electronicore
Got a debut track here from guitarist Aaron MacAllister performing an instrumental cover of PrinceWhateverer’s classic. If you’re looking to learn the ropes of composition, covers and remixes are always a good start.
Francis Vace – Fruits Of Her Labour (feat. PegasYs) | Ska
Another track from Vace’s Souvenirs album, this cover nicely re-imagines the work originally done by Glaze and StormWolf and features the awesome vocal talent of PegasYs. Check out the rest of the album if you’d like to hear more covers of some of the community’s early classics.
