Przewalski’s Ponies – Reroll | Electronic Rock

NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 12 April 2018.

I’m not really sure what this song is about beyond RPGs and dice rolls, but there’s a fun electronic and rock hybrid instrumental and plenty of crazy Russian vocals. Plus it comes with a neat typographic video full of ponies, which is pretty cool too.

Brohoof Studios – Surrender | Psystyle

After his recent(ish) release from the latest Horse Music Central album, Brohoof Studios has made a song in another genre that I never knew existed until now. This Sombra themed track seems to combine elements from hardcore, trance, and hardstyle to make a neat drop that thumps hard with a rolling bass.

Faulty – D.Vee | Progressive House

NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 10 April 2018.

Faulty continues to nail that Archie-style house formula, with this awesome track based on a character from P-Berry’s fanfic ‘Anywhere But Here’. Some nicely voiced lines from CadetRedShirt build into an upbeat and energetic yet slightly sad drop, which is really super catchy, and gets better second time around with a killer lead synth.

Daniel Ingram – The Pony I Want To Be (One Wing Remix) | Synthpop

I think it’s pretty cool how different producers always have completely different interpretations and takes on songs from the show. We end up with some really unique covers and remixes, like this one from One Wing, which is a kinda downtempo housey synthpop…thing. I’m not sure to categorise it but it’s really melodic and chill!

[P@D] Arturo Höst – Paper Monsters | Electro / IDM

NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 11 April 2018.

Arturo makes some pretty killer glitch-influenced music, and this track has a whole heap of that, as it delves into intricate and deep soundscapes to confront some nightmares. It’s got some pretty awesome sound design throughout, with just enough melodic content to help drive the craziness.

Vylet Pony – Our Light & After (feat. Pepper Mei) | Future Bass

NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 9 April 2018.

Vylet’s recent album release has been full of some great chill tracks, but this title track is a bit more upbeat. It makes awesome use of Pepper Mei’s vocals that suit the vibe of the track perfectly, with some super clever sound design and composition throughout a groovy drop.

TCB – Trust Your Heart (feat. Acarcion) | House / Future Bass

NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 9 April 2018.

TCB’s vocal chops grace us once again with some awesome chopping of Twilight’s voice. The first half of this track is pretty chilled out making use of vocal chops and soft chords, before we get some nice rap vocals from rapper Acarcion. The track then shifts into high gear with some awesome future bass chords.

Royalpony- Great and Powerful | Hardstyle

We are very lucky to have a healthy amount of excellent hardstyle in this fandom and one very big source of that music is Royalpony! In this Trixie-inspired track, Royal uses lively synth riffs in the melody as well as more melodic piano parts to change it up half-way through. The hardstyle beat is top-notch as always with some great builds making for a fantastic song!

Quadrivia – Filly Seekers EP | Electronic

Horses are sexy, you should f-

Quadrivia’s back with a little EP based largely around her fascination with…well I’m sure you can figure it out for yourself. The name comes from her latest P@D contribution, Filly Seekers, the first track on the EP and a sequel to a previous P@D song of the same signature complextro sound. It also features NSFW (Not Safe For Woona) II, a more progressive / electro house type song, and her remix of Filly Seekers made in collaboration with Arturo Host and MEQA.

The entire EP is available to dowload from the Duktig Records Bandcamp for free.
