The Autumn Blaze has just been doubled! Listening to this wonky and delightful spin on A Kirin Tale feels like swimming in her irresistible voice and that just feels so great! Likonan definitely did amazing with these vocal chops, and I would party hard in any club playing this remix for sure!
Electronic
DAϟH – Gates to Tartarus | Gabber / Speedcore
Bringing guitars to his Speedcore game, DAϟH definitely rocked the hay out of Tartarus and I’m sure the friendly critters taking up residence there appreciated the gig and display of musical craziness that even they can’t fathom. Some ominous vibes as well in the slashing rhythm, and this was definitely a successful experiment!
Mogul Dash – 5M1L3 (SMILE) | House
Let’s just keep this comeback streak going, shall we? 5M1L3 is Mogul Dash’s first full MLP-related release in well over 5 years! This crazy track utilises Pinkie’s vocals from the Smile Song and chops them up, creating a brand new, bass-heavy and bouncy instrumental! There’s a lot of wild sounds and chopped effects in this, especially towards the end, where Pinkie’s voice is left alone with the music. Welcome back, Mogul!
[ASOS] Chasing Dawn – Let You Go | Electropop
Oh man. Track 39 of ASOS: BrownieASOS: Brownie is a wholesome one. Chasing dawn goes deep with this one. He experiments with something new to his creativity. A heartfelt electropop song that vibes with tones and feeling of MLP itself. The lyrics could be about finding the show, the fandom. A close friend, a lover or a beloved family member. The music and melody itself has this underlying soft techno feels, that gets you into the loving soft tones of the track. The echo’s are a nice touch in the emotion of telling someone that made a difference in someone’s life and getting them past the rocky storms. Brownie is an album showing a little bit of everything this year so check it out!. As always this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself
Direct Current – Blue Moon | Indietronica
Comebacks are abound in times like these. Direct Current has just put out Blue Moon, his first original track in almost a year. This one oozes pure cuteness from the processed vocals to the catchy electronic beat that accentuates the sweet tone. The lyrics tell a story of Starlight and Trixie’s cute relationship and how their love for each other keeps them together. Doesn’t that make your heart bounce?
Nicolas Dominique – Beauty of the Night | Chillout
Nicolas Dominique’s songs are always journeys. Beauty of the Night is one of contemplation of the moonlit night. The cute bells evoke space and the plucks can be perceived as a star sparkling sound effect, making it feel as though we could hear the sound of stars. Then, when the middle section hits, a softer segment comes forth, only to crescendo back to the intensity of the first part. It seems the artwork has been chosen with great care, as the bright full moon’s light resonates with the unexpected energy coming from a chillout song.
Tw3Lv3 – Waves | Album | Lo-fi
It is fairly safe to say that pony music has reached another level in terms of quality. Furthermore, the speed at which new musicians in the fandom get better can inspire nothing but awe. The names of GrazySmash, Niłch’i Poni, Single Purpose to name a few and of course Tw3Lv3 come to mind. He can now rival with Drum & Bass giants such as Hay Tea and Age of Vinyl, ventures in a plethora of heterogeneous genres (and be good at it!) and at the same time produce some of the best lo-fi out there.
(Continued after the break)
[Helpie’s Corner] Tw3Lv3 – Dat Spooky Bats | Dubstep/Psytrance
Ready for some spooky yet early Nightmare Night vibes? Track 7 from the Helpie’s Corner compilation Other Side Of The Mirror is Dat Spooky Bats, one of Tw3Lv3’s two appearances on the album. The song uses samples from the appearance of Flutterbat on the show before the drops while a creepy synth melody plays throughout. Musically, the song mixes elements of psytrance and dubstep, with the drops containing heavy bouncy basslines and everything in between featuring dark synth pads that really add to the spooky atmosphere. We’ve still got a ways to go until Nightmare Night shows its face, but it sure feels like it’s looming over us already!
