Who’s the sauciest pony of them all? I have no idea but surely Princess Luna is pretty high up there. Xavi is pretty accustomed to whipping up hot tunes and this one is no different, with some contemporary future house that bounces around with a combination of shuffling percussion and heavy pluck-style bass sounds.
My favorite track from Segments Of Life’s latest album Everything In Slow Motion, Journey not only manages to display the unique musical style and amazing genre fusioning that the musician is know for, but for me it also creates powerful emotions and especially during the part starting at 2:02. There’s just something in those melodies and sounds that is… something else. I highly recommend the rest of the album as well, literally every track is a gem! Always an amazing moment when Segments Of Life releases a new album.
Ertrii’s Progressive House is amazing, and it is with much delight that we’re getting the gifted musician’s take on Midnight Musician’s track Where Is Your Heaven Now. Sublimating the original vocals with a blissful instrumental of divine beauty, it takes the soul for a wonderful ride among sound-powered emotions.
A huge fan of Baroque music myself, I was instantly hooked by that familiar sounding, yet original harpsichord intro! Mane in Green is no stranger to the genre as he presents some very well written baroque style melodies and chord progressions. The electronic drums and sub base give this a modern spin, and only gets better as the flute is introduced taking over the motif. Then things get really exciting as the tempo picks up and we get some Bach-esque keyboard performances. Stuffed with musical ideas from beginning to end, no fan of classical music will get bored of this one!

Lunar Drift has been releasing music for about a year now, and they’ve steadily shown improvement over time. Whilst this piece is a little rough around the edges in places, the main focus is on the melodic elements which work wonderfully. There are some great melodies played out by the plucky synths, and the percussion keeps the energy moving along pretty well. All the while some nice string sounds help to fill in the background appreciably. There’s also a nice piano section towards the end, so check it out if that sounds like fun!
It’s over. This video wins. Exactly what it has won though has yet to be determined. Shout out to Squeaky Belle for making this incredible video.
I hope you enjoyed our idea of an April Fools joke, normal service resumes tomorrow.
Okay so, fellow horse men, we’re all sick and tired of people saying that the pony music scene is nothing Winter Wrap-Up remixes and Discord, right? Yes, yes, I’m sure.
This is why I proudly present to you a rebuttal for all such claims you may come across in the future. Since we all know that how good a song is is directly proportionate to how fast it is, this is LITERALLY SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL.
If you’re not convinced already, here’s some samples of what the world’s most renowned and knowledgeable critics think of this masterpiece:
when I read discord I thought diacored from my little pony lol 😂😂 anyone with me???
I like the backround picture .3. is that weird? Im like creepy stuff like dat :3
I think it’s amazing that MrDeLoop, perhaps best known for his various pony videos, has managed to make such successful endeavours into the music scene. Not only has he got a b r a n d n e w typography video for us, but he wrote the music to it himself too! Wow! Bazinga! [Interjection]!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh, this remix song is sooooo good. I love the melody in here & the drums are so punchy. The way the vocals are used are fantastic & make me feel good when “discord’ comes. INOESFNSEOINONOIGE. BUT WHEN THE VOCAL CHOP BITS COME, I LOVE THAT A LOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT. It’s really iconic & then the backing kind of pluck thing the best part is THE MAIN MELODY. A reallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly cool remix that is
iawonoiawhdoiwa ahhhhhh
One of the freshest horse tunes I’ve heard in a while, talented producer Eurobeat Brony brings us what is sure to end up being a rousing success for him. An awesome combination of catchy melodies, excellent vocals and super cool eurobeat sound design, this piece promises to entertain fans for years to come. Who knows, maybe we’ll even get some highly innovative and clever remixes for it?
