Henni’s back with lovely releases and the signature happy vibe that he likes to give to his songs, and this original certainly lives up to its cute title, with very Equestrian lead melodies, uplifting beats, and starry background melodies delivered over a beautiful progression. Along the cute cover art, this definitely feels very pony and MLP-like!

Daniel Ingram – Hope Shines Eternal (Protocat Remix) | Drum & Bass
Master of Drum & Bass and emotional show song remixes Protocat is back with a new amazing take on a song by series composer Daniel Ingram and this time it’s from an EQG movie! Hope Shines Eternal concluded the latest installment “Legend of Everfree” quite wonderfully after the Rainbooms’ performance, and it is such a delight to get an emotionally powerful remix of it by the one and only Protocat. His signature divine vocal chops are present, breathing new life and new dimension to the original vocals, and a dreamy progression with slick DnB percussions and powerful background synths are completing the picture and showcasing Protocat’s unique musical vision and talent.
Viricide Filly – These Bitter Wings | UK Garage / House
Second Back From Reality song that got featured on Cider Party! Congratulations Viricide Filly! Finally she is deserving her award for her 3 years of hard work.
The vocal chops are so well performed that make a beautiful synth! The mix between the robotic vocals of Viricide and the synth work and the drum work is amazing! Perfectly the best track from Viricide’s latest album. Also, I loved that sample of Rainbow Dash’s LOUDERRRR!
Also, just for saying this, Viricide is very good in writing lyrics and giving the real meaning to the song. Basically this song is about a breakdown of Viricide’s OC, Eleanor, also because this album is a concept album about her OC. Not moving an inch, these bitter wings want me dead – this song has really some meaningful and deep messages inside of it. Basically the “bitter wings” are the every single crack of her troubled pasts. Loved the “solo” done with the synths at the end of the song, it was very awesome!
Download or buy Back From Reality in Viricide’s bandcamp. Support a 3 years producing work in you have money.
[P@D] PVNK – Exterminatus | Electronic
PVNK shares my interest in Warhammer 40k, and this song takes inspiration from that setting’s biggest way to fix problems. Equestria is being invaded by Changelings, and ponies decide to activate a countermeasure of sorts. Gritty, lo-fi, noisy, and discordant, this is the auditory equivalent of watching a supervolcano erupt. I loved every second of it.
Editor’s note: Bonus P@D: Awakening mémé at the end!
[LDB] NeverLastStanding – Forever & Always | Happy House
What a fantastic song by NeverLastStanding! Electric pony samples plus happy sounds equals a truly spectacular song. From the description, it seems that this is NeverLastStanding’s love letter to the fandom. And that’s something I absolutely support. Truth be told, I feel exactly the same way. I love this fandom, I love its music, I love ponies, and I love seeing other people feel the same way. /)
Cynifree – The Mysterious Mirror | Glitch Hop / Moombahcore
Groove, style, and wubs collide in The Mysterious Mirror! Gritty bass and shuffling drums found the song for the synths and effects to build on. It’s themed around Applejack discovering a mirror that shows her surrounded by all manner of dark creatures. Who knows what lurks within the mirror?
Modern Bard – Celestial Sunrise | Ambient
A supremely atmospheric and immersive track, Celestial Sunrise is chilling in its majesty. I let my mouth hang open as I took in the beauty and the splendor of the music. Modern Bard says “more majestic than all ambient i’ve done before,” and I have to agree. This is a truly unbelievable composition.
One Track Mind – A Thousand Years of Spite | Experimental Noise
I like experimental, and I like noise. I’ve never seen the two together, but I like this too! Vocal chopping (perhaps “shredding” is a better word) and an overriding, almost carnival-like melody are the bread and butter of the song, with the bass providing an excellent seasoning on top. Now this is a song to wake up to!
TPressleyJ – Shockwave | Hybrid Trap
Woohoo, some pegasus music! The severe weather warning is absolute gold, as is the [spoilers!] signal beep. The melody’s catchy, sinister, and thoroughly enjoyable. Delicious bass composition, rain effects, and drum placement round out the song. The thumbnail is intriguing – did Lightning Dust cause the storm?
[P@D] EnsionD – No Longer (feat. Francis Vace) | Tropical House
EnsionD’s beautiful synths and Francis Vane’s superb vocals collide in No Longer. With delightful hints of the Brony Sylenth Pack, the sound construction is truly masterful. Thematically, it’s about Cheerilee and her unrequited love. Soft drums and aethereal pads convey this romantic longing perfectly, lulling us away with the emotion.
