YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA this is the stuff right here my dude. P@D Rebirth was lit, but Tap Out has somethin’ special to it, you feel? Mikuma and Hollow teaming up is a very good thing. The beat itself is like sitting in the Rock&Roller coaster from Disneyland on LSD. Its so good and so relaxing and hyped up at the same time. Legit one of Mikuma’s best work. While going crazy with Hollows flow. Legit, from one rapper to another, I am fully confident in saying that Hollow is one of the most talented rappers here in this fandom. You can all go home now. Go to work, you ain’t getting above this. Its over. Buh-bye. Omg. (both of you keep it up man. ❤ )
Electronic
iblank2apples – Not Safe For Books (Single Purpose Remix) | Drum & Bass
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 30 June 2018.
Single Purpose has been around a fair few months on Soundcloud, but they’ve only recently ported all their tunes over to YouTube, and in my opinion this remix is certainly the most impressive of them! A smooth drum & bass remix of iblank2apples’ Twilight tune, there’s fantastic use of vocal samples and groovy chords throughout the track with excellent drums as well.
Daniel Ingram – Love Is In Bloom (loophoof Remix) | House

I’ve really been loving loophoof’s music lately, and another show song remix from him is great to see! This time he tackles the old classic party song Love Is In Bloom, making excellent use of the vocals throughout. Some high energy supersaws combine with awesome vocal manipulation to create something pretty great!
Sky Runner – Empty | Drum & Bass

There’s sure been a bunch of this Delta-related stuff lately, but I’m not complaining if it means music as good as this! Sky Runner’s abilities to bring out the emotion in a composition is well on show here with lovely soft drums, melancholy piano and a gorgeous atmosphere.
Zizkil – She Only Comes Out At Night (VooDoo & Dihedral Remix) | Dubstep
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 23 June 2018.
She Only Comes Out At Night was a great tune from Zizkil, and VooDoo has totally turned it on its head in combination with Dihedral. The addition of some vocals adds some context and depth, whilst the drops build up well and hit hard. Definitely one of the more interesting and transformative remixes I’ve heard recently, so make sure to check it out!
Notion – Who Walks In Your Dreams? (feat. Vylet Pony) | House
You know what they say, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! And it looks like Notion has created something that definitely isn’t broken. Almost a year ago Notion wrote a song, had someone with an amazing voice sing for it, and then had an excellent videographer make a video for it; and it was a great success! And he has done it again! This time he has once again enlisted the extremely talented Vylet Pony to perform the vocals. Vylet’s style fits the theme of the piece perfectly and goes well with the synths. This song explores an interesting concept, who protects the protector? Luna protects many dreams from nightmares, but who protects her dreams? It is all tied together by another great PMV created by none other than Jack DC 93. This is a change from Jacks normal style, but it integrates perfectly with the song and its theme. All in all an excellent piece, hopefully we see more in the future!
Nicolas Dominique – Kites | Chillout
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 18 June 2018.
Nicolas’ chillout works are almost always wonderfully calming, and this is one of my favourites of his recent releases! Consistent and clear pads and arpeggios combine with other lovely compositional elements to help immerse you in a sea of kites soaring through the air. Maud would almost certainly enjoy the atmosphere.
Ponytronic – Bygone | Trance
Ponytronic is still going strong, bringing us this excellent trance hit! Bygone is composed of several thematic sections, with each one managing to act as its own uplifting vibe. The track itself is adventurous and uses a solid drum beat to keep everything exciting. With some added psy elements, Ponytronic manages quite a feat by putting so much work into a very worthwhile track!
[P@D] Exiark & lia;quo – Within You | Dubstep
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 11 June 2018.
Exiark and lia;quo are unarguably two of the best producers in the fandom when it comes to their ability to combine modern and powerful sound design with memorable and interesting arrangement and composition. To have them both team up for a track together is therefore something that just had to be awesome! This tune combines beautiful melodic sections with aggressive and sleek drops to really create an awesome piece.
Jastrian – Destiny | Chillout
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 14 June 2018.
Jastrian’s Celestia-inspired works seems to have a special quality to them. This one definitely shows that, with a gorgeous blend of vocal chops and uplifting synths, arranged in an intricate and interesting way with plenty of upbeat goodness.
