Double Cleff revitalizes a very old and very good piece of his in this reboot. A song about Roseluck positively filled with love, happiness, and vibrancy, Luck of the Rose is already a good song. But Double Cleff’s vocoded vocals (reminiscent of All Levels at Once) make it stand out from the crowd.

ertrii – Supremacy | Uplifting Trance
Uplifting Trance, woohoo! I’m a huge fan of trance, and I’ve been eager to review some since I got here.
And what a piece of trance it is. ertrii’s music is always amazing (seriously, he’s so underrated, check him out), but to hear this much talent lovingly applied to trance? That is something beautiful. Incredibly rich sound is enhanced by clever selection of effects. The bassline, too, is powerful and almost hypnotic. ertrii takes us far away, to that magical world of talking ponies and friendship we all love.
Royalpony – Solar Empire (Daybreaker) | Hardstyle
Solar Empire, now that’s a blast from the past! Royalpony’s newest track creatures a delightful admixture of 2011 fandom and 2017 samples. Even harder than most of his stuff, it channels the sound of an anthem for a totalitarian government, as well as the high-energy beat and high-frequency synths of a final boss. The vocal samples of Daybreaker add that “finishing touch” to turn a good song to a great song.
Totalspark – Wishes | Chill House
Totalspark has some relaxing, soft chill house for us. A gentle but firm kick and trance-y plucks conspire to create an atmosphere of pure bliss. Usually if people say that music makes you sleepy, it’s a bad thing. But Wishes lulls you off to sweet dreams and panoramas of ponies at play in the fields.
Pinkamena Party – INCOHESIVE HORSE ADHESIVE | Compilation Album | Multi-Genre
It’s Pinkamena Party, you know the drill. It’s after the break for all you kids who don’t care about the rules…
Ataraxia – Motion Reimagined | Album | Electronic
I hadn’t realised until recently just how much music Ataraxia has put out over the past couple of years. From solo piano sonatas to cinematic electronic pop songs, there’s been quite a variety. But like all good things, the alias is coming to an end, and as a parting gift he gives us Motion Reimagined – deliberately named so as a ‘rework’ of sorts of his previous album Eternal Perfect Motion. The album often takes a more experimental approach to music production than Ataraxia’s previous work, in particular the VIP of Viridescent, and features a couple of other people’s remixes of notable songs too.
It’s a great parting gift. We’ll miss you Ataraxia. Thanks for all the music.
Motion Reimagined is available to purchase on Ataraxia’s Bandcamp.
TCB – NightMares EP | Dubstep
TCB is an upcoming artist that released a lot of interesting Dubstep experiments, including NightMares, their latest EP! The experimentation and the mixing in this EP are pretty good. I would say that Daybreaker is the highlights in this EP that describes the evil versions of the Royal Sisters and Twilight Sparkle. I recommend this EP for those who are into to some really experimental, melodic, aggressive Dubstep or Riddim.
You can download NightMares on TCB’s bandcamp or you can stream the 3 songs on TCB’s playlist on Youtube.
[P@D] Jyc Row & lia;quo – Bat Pony (ft. Kjellska) | Orchestral / Dubstep
We’ve got a real mishmash of both genres and nationalities in this one here. Jyc and Lia have often been featured both here on the site and on Ponies At Dawn albums in the past, but I believe this is the first time I’ve seen Kjellska’s name anywhere, and her sweet Japanese vocals are a welcome addition to the track! This one starts off as an orchestral piece but drops into some melodic dubstep and flows back and forth between the two for the duration of the song.
Vylet Pony – The Watcher (feat. Silva Hound & Lavender Harmony) | Soundtrack
InklingBear already covered this in his huge rwiteup of Vylet’s new album, Mystic Acoustics, but I thought this would be a particularly cool track to highlight individually. Not only is it the pinnacle of “fuck genres”, but having an entire animated video for it too is incredible, huge props to alumx for his work on it! Most of you have probably already seen this, but go watch it again anyway…you know it’s worth it.
