Koa & Friends – Rainbow Disaster Pop: Double Disaster | Hyperpop Album
Three years ago, Koa composed a love-letter to Rainbow Dash Presents called Rainbow Disaster Pop, with each song about a different episode of the legendary fan series. For its anniversary, she gathered up a bunch of artists to create a remix album. Enjoy all the various ways these musicians have given the tracks a makeover, from hardstyle to dubstep and from drum & bass to pop punk! As a special extra the album ends with No Rainbows Bossa Nova, the background tune to Dawn Somewhere’s Rainbow Factory Employee Safety Module.
Odyssey – Batty 2025 | Eurobeat
Are you spooked? It’s not like Odyssey (aka Eurobeat Brony) dropped a revamped version of her Flutterbat song Batty! In this updated version, you’ll find all things you loved about the original—the glorious organ intro, the energetic synths, the cool vocal effects and mixup in the middle, 100% blood sucking lyrics—but you’ll also hear the polished, deep brooding vocals and excellent synth mix which makes everything pop right into place. It’s an excellent track, and a great way to introduce newer fans to the old classics.
Saphire Systrine – Bla Bla Bla Feat. Butter Bolt VA (Covering Gigi D’Agostino) | Italo Dance
Although it’s a song you may not recognize by name, this track stands as a pillar for modern electronic music, and this faithful ponification that was brought to the table by Sapphire Systrine with Butter Bolt VA certainly lives up to its legacy. The duo went as far as to recreate the vocal line used in the original 1999 track, a move that’s nothing short of jaw-dropping. As Sapphire clarifies in the description: “…the voice line is from Stretch – Why Did You Do It (12″ Version)” which is also the very first thing this tribute hit us with. Butter Bolt VA delivers a perfect rendition of Rainbow Dash’s cocky yet unmistakably raspy voice, which is sampled and rearranged with immaculate precision to mirror the original song as closely as possible.
Everything in this track radiates with a true respect and appreciation for the source material, while introducing clever and well placed twists that both enrich and elevate the listening experience. The final result is incredibly bouncy and irresistibly danceable, with just the right mix of elements to make you drop everything and dance alongside Rainbow Dash. Speaking of which, Dashie’s animation was handled by Sapphire using a model provided by the ever-talentful Valiant Studios, once again showcasing mastery over the craft. Couldn’t recommend it enough. Go give it a listen!
Dustcar – Lap of Honor | Multi-Genre Album
For those not in the know, Dust Car was a discord server created in 2020 during the height of the pandemic. It featured regular competitions where musicians were given a topic and had only 14 days to create a new piece of music based on it, very similar to the toastbeard competition from early fandom history. The server functioned as its own underground music scene—a place where both newcomers and veterans alike could experiment with making music and make friends along the way. The discord peaked in popularity around 2021, but continued operations into 2024. In total, 100 competitions took place and 1,200 tracks were made!
Today marks the one year anniversary of Dust Car – Lap of Honor, the final album put out by the musicians in that community. Keep reading after the break for a run down of all the tracks

Content warning: Gore + Violence.
SpinScissor has teamed up with 10 other artists to deliver an incredibly poignant song inspired by the Cupcakes alternate universe comics by SinfulPie. The track excels at taking a variety of negative emotions like grief, denial, and confusion, and translating them into song. Its lyrics like “you’re terrified it’s true” and “why would you do this to me” capture these emotions perfectly, but the music’s heart-beat like, pulsating trance energy also does the subject matter justice. It’s a haunting track for a haunting narrative, pulled off with expert execution, well done!
[P@D] SP1TF1R3 & Dropper Vampire – Somnum Incantatio | Big Room House/Bounce
Landing on the Ponies at Dawn Limelight album in May, this collaboration between SP1TF1R3 and Dropper Vampire is electrifying to say the least! The track is inspired by the events of S7:E10, A Royal Problem, and it cleverly inserts dialogue from the episode as the track progresses. It makes use of contrasting sections—some feature huge synths with the fiery energy of Daybreaker and intensity of Nightmare Moon, while the others build up to it with the haunting feel of choir-like pads, making a completely riveting journey you won’t want to skip!
VioletWire – SLEEP | House / Synthwave
VioletWire’s sleep is an exciting trip through the sounds of both house and synthwave, clocking in at just over 7 Minutes this track has a lot of time to build and uses it to its fullest! Featuring everything from exciting synths and fun beats along a whole range of over sounds, this track never gets boring and even on repeat listens you’ll be able to hear new and fresh sounds!
Wooden Toaster – RAINBOW FACTORY (GNG REMIX) | Brazilian Funk/Phonk
GNG’s remix of the fandom classic “Rainbow Factory” by Wooden Toaster takes all the electrifying energy of the original and funnels into an equally potent banger which sounds like it came straight off the floor of the factory itself! The kick is unbelievably powerful, its percussive elements sound like hacking saws, and its synths sound like alarms going off, giving this quite the industrial vibe. It’s an absolutely great listen for anyone wanting a piece which packs an extra punch.
Vale & FL0 | avast_wholesome_peach.mp3 | Dubstep
It maybe April Fools, but this song is no joke, just 100% fun internet vibes. Vale & FL0 have made a remix of a remix, paying homage to both the original Kitsune^2 track as well as Wooden toaster’s rendition. Expect your Fluttershy “yay” chops but infused with dubstep wubs, and then toss those expectations out the window when the piano solo hits. Perhaps a second meme song might even sneak in. Either way, it’ll be hard to get through this one without breaking out smiling.
