Nightmare Night may be over, but we can keep the theme dark if we want! This latest offering from ALostCarolean takes some 80s-inspired synthwave sounds and combines it with heavily distorted and driving bass to create this imposing theme for Chryssy. But it’s not just another Changeling-themed song we’ve got here, but also the promise of an entire EP dedicated to the shapeshifters coming in about a month’s time! If you like this sort of thing, keep an eye on ALC’s YouTube channel for more…

Every day we’re dashin’! Back again with a so-called “Chinese hardstyle” track, EveryDayDashie has created something that blends a slightly softer kind of hardstyle with sounds of traditional Chinese instruments and melodies. They imagine how life in an Equestrian city might be, and how it compares to their own experience. You should check this out even if, like me, you’re not typically a fan of hardstyle – it’s much more melodic than you might expect!

Makaryo – Will I Ever Make My Own Mark? (Pony Princesses Remix) | House
The new generation of musicians are making their mark and first time getting featured here on HMH we have Pony Princesses and Makaryo from the Philippines! Makaryo is mostly known for doing animations doesn’t limit themselves; they been rolling out glittering G5 singles and their Misty song got a worthy remix. Crazy to think that from a short indie rock version we have this extended upbeat house version with creative and catchy pre-hooks building up to prismatic drops. The lyrics and singing are precisely the story of our blue Afro-hair friend in her best trying attempts to gain her cutie mark, but still falling down. The Misty fan art spam doesn’t stop, discord users with Misty pfps keep emerging and now you’ll have to do a Misty playlist music. This new generation just keeps on getting better, better, better!
