EveryDayDashie never fails to deliver! Working together with Skyshard for this part of his musical world tour, he delivers some Asian-inspired hyperpop that also features influences from other genres too! Not only is this an upbeat, fast paced track that’ll have you bopping your head along, you can also spot EveryDayDashie’s violin work in there, along with some Dubstep, an orchestral outro and a lot more! This one is definitely a track to pay attention to – clocking in at almost 5 minutes while never once sounding repetitive!
Electronic
PumpkinZeta – Honeysuckle | Tropical House
PumpkinZeta is no stranger to making chill music, and his new track Honeysuckle really dials up the breezy feels. Featuring tropical, beachy sounds such as chill guitar and vibes, as well wave-crash-y sounds around the drops, this chill track whisks its listeners away from any rainy day to warm, sandy beaches and peaceful fun in the sun!
Tw3Lv3 – Nebula | Lo-Fi / Drum & Bass
Today Tw3Lv3 delivers yet another calm and relaxing banger. It starts out super chill and relaxing, easing you into the track as it slowly but surely builds as you listen, climaxing with a fire DnB drop towards the end before it eases to a close. Definitely something to put on repeat as you study or just for relaxing!
[VibePoniez] Evr! – Shimmer | Chillhop
The second holiday-themed album from chill music curators, ”VibePoniez,” is out now! Among the host of new tracks is Shimmer from up-and-coming artist, Evr! Aptly named, this beautifully chill track features a slow, hip-hop-y beat, gentle piano chords, and twinkly sounds that wrap the listener in a warm and comforting blanket of shimmering sound, bringing to mind images of gazing up at the night sky on a starlit wintry night. Be sure to check out this and other tracks on VibePoniez’ new album, Hearth’s Warming Vol. 2!
SCR4TCHK4T – kittygirl!~ | Future Bass
SCR4TCHK4T’s latest release is a cute and bouncy future bass track! Laced with vocal chops throughout, the track blends together a variety of different electronic sounds. The intro is smooth and mellow with a lovely splash of ePiano, before adding some bright synths and the classic D&B beat implemented with minimalist sounds that slide very nicely into the mix! The main drop is preceded by a really cool build up with the synths ascending in a way that makes it sound de-tuned, building up a lot of tension before delivering us. Afterwards, there’s some energetic chip tune stabs and drum features. Nicely done!
Thunder Dash – This Is How A Unicorn Dreams (Izzy’s Lullaby) | Orchestral/Ambient
Borrowing from Izzy Moonbow’s “Fit Right In” from MLP’s “A New Generation,” Thunder Dash’s “This Is How a Unicorn Dreams” combines the gentle, soothing vibes of ambient music with orchestral sounds suggestive of ethereal pipe organs, softly punctuated by airy bells. The piece feels cathedral-like and dignified, like a wedding procession of hopeful dreams. With gentle piano carrying the lullaby’s main melody, an array of humming choirs, crystalline chimes and other dulcet tones support the melody to create a dreamy, mystical, magical feel worthy of getting lost in.
SpinScissor & MC-Arch – The Moon is My Guide | Drum & Bass
SpinScissor’s often ambient and ethereal sensibilities are on full display with this latest release, centered around Luna’s progression as a character throughout the show! Deep synth chords and sounds of splashing water in its early moments provide a relaxing atmosphere that you can sink right into, but you won’t be waiting very long before the tempo picks up and sweeps you away with an engaging drum beat. SpinScissor’s soundscape and flowy vocals combined with MC-Arch‘s punchy raps create an experience that is comforting and introspective at times while at others, a head-bopping anthem!
SOUND BANDIT – FUN TO PRETEND | Plunderphonics
SOUND BANDIT is back with another G3 inspired song accompanied by a pony music video! This dreamy track begins with the soft and lovely sound of an upright piano before jumping in to a gorgeous section with synths that sparkle and a warm bass. The melody is entirely comprised of vocal chops, heavily featuring the voices of several G3 ponies like Storybelle, Star Flight, and Heart Bright. There’s so much creative sampling using yawns, buzzing insects, gasps, and laughs to create a sound so absolutely adorable that it just might convince you to fall in love with G3. Fantastic work!

Over half a year in the making, and actualizing concepts from the last five years, Vylet Pony’s new album is jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring, and breathtaking. It is an album shroud in mystery as its narrative follows the protagonist and their shadow through a plethora of genres, each track morphing seamlessly into the next, starting with heavenly soundscapes before descending into darkness and death, only to turn around and ascend back to its harmonious beginnings. Much of the story is incomplete, and the listener is invited to theorize more about it. Throughout the album you’ll hear samples from previous Vylet songs, the classic “Sing a song about life” clip, as well as a new carousel motif.
