Henni’s back with lovely releases and the signature happy vibe that he likes to give to his songs, and this original certainly lives up to its cute title, with very Equestrian lead melodies, uplifting beats, and starry background melodies delivered over a beautiful progression. Along the cute cover art, this definitely feels very pony and MLP-like!
Dubstep
[P@D] PVNK – Exterminatus | Electronic
PVNK shares my interest in Warhammer 40k, and this song takes inspiration from that setting’s biggest way to fix problems. Equestria is being invaded by Changelings, and ponies decide to activate a countermeasure of sorts. Gritty, lo-fi, noisy, and discordant, this is the auditory equivalent of watching a supervolcano erupt. I loved every second of it.
Editor’s note: Bonus P@D: Awakening mémé at the end!
TPressleyJ – Shockwave | Hybrid Trap
Woohoo, some pegasus music! The severe weather warning is absolute gold, as is the [spoilers!] signal beep. The melody’s catchy, sinister, and thoroughly enjoyable. Delicious bass composition, rain effects, and drum placement round out the song. The thumbnail is intriguing – did Lightning Dust cause the storm?
[P@D] R3CTIFIER – Artillery | Brostep
The wubs of R3C are back in the 56th track of the recent Ponies At Dawn album: Guardians. R3CTIFIER has given birth to a lot of really cool tracks and he is submitting tracks to P@D since Starlit Flames.
“Artillery” is a nice and aggressive Brostep track it gave me chills when the first drop arrived and joint that with the samples used more the orchestral elements and the incredible synth work, and you got an amazing track. Everything gives a creepy and etheral atmosphere to the track that is really spooky.
Download already Guardians, what you are waiting for? (You can buy also if you are rich).
[ASOS] Luminn & Insanity – The Morning Sky | Melodic Dubstep
TPressleyJ – Polar Opposition | Hybrid Trap
Leading with dialogue from the best episode so far, this song gets off to a snappy start. Trap isn’t really my thing, but this song got me bouncing anyway because it’s just so catchy! The drum selection is brilliant, the bass screechy and smooth, and the synths deliciously melodic saws. All around excellent!
Exiark – Dark Ascension | Dubstep
Exiark’s extra-wubbly dubstep is always a delight, and this song is no exception! Juicy kicks, haunting synths, and sliding bass twirl together in a panorama of sound. Beautifully chopped vocals layer another type of energy upon the instruments, with a lunar, eerie feel. Glorious, haunting, and powerful, this song is a brilliant work from any perspective.
Wootmaster – Futa (TCB Remix) | Hybrid Trap
TCB (aka TheClosetBrony) is a musician that got my sleepy and slothy attention because of the experimentation that TCB creates in the songs. Basically I would call an Avant-Garde Brostep act! So I anticipated to see TCB in the highest mode in terms of quality and in experimentation and oh boy, I was right.
Remixing one of the most comic and lewd songs of Wootmaster isn’t a easy job, I think that this song deserves some kind of “King” treatment because it is really one of the best hip hop tracks that the brony fandom gave birth. And TCB treated Futa like a King, why? TCB recreated the song to his image, imagining a world of pure experimentation on the drops and on the beats. Also, TCB had the time to put an art of each artist that Wootmaster pretends to be (Atryl, BlackJRXIII, Kevinsano and Megasweet), bravo TCB!
Listen to the song, TCB says sorry on the youtube description, but TCB, you don’t need to feel bad. You made one of the best Wootmaster’s remixes I’ve ever heard along with the Reggatóns of Drixale!
DJT & Rusyd Rosman – Breathing Space (Einarx Remix) | Hybrid Dubstep
Einarx releases a hard-hitting, melodic masterwork. It’s difficult to place this song in a box, because it has elements of dubstep, house, and trap. But there’s no question that it’s a fantastic song. Its immense drums and soft bells are amazing on their own, but paired with Rusyd’s vocals? It’s electrifying. Really looking forward to the EP!
[LDB] Tripon – Queen of the Cavern | Dub
For his first release after the name tweak—specifically, the introduction of a pony specific alias—Tripon embraces his previously underexposed halftime side.
Queen of the Cavern is a brilliantly produced specimen of an underground genre that has not been traditionally represented within the fandom, and is as such an even more welcome release. Tripon sources inspiration from the still-fresh Season 7 episode Rock Solid Friendship, which is prominently sampled within the tune, to construct a scenario in which Maud instrumentalises her in-depth knowledge of Equestrian geology to its full extent. The result is a marvellous subwoofer workout that is as minimal & hard as Maud’s emotional pallet, which also further diversifies the arsenal of genres 2017 pony music can offer its listeners.
