Kadenza’s most recent pony hit Zen was an awesome fusion of his signature melodic style with orchestral elements, but here EM120X has turned it into an unashamedly dance-y banger. With a strong bassline and nice lead synths, this is a groovy remix and it only gets better towards the end where there’s an awesome change up and a vocal melody joins in to add some extra joy.

Another pretty awesome electro house track here! Here we have an upbeat remix of You’ll Play Your Part from NeverLastStanding, featuring his trademark electro synths and some cool distorted plucks in the intro. It’s a pretty strong remix of one of my favourite tracks from the show.
You’d be forgiven if you’ve not heard of Equicity – over 2 years ago after publishing 9 songs, the promotion channel closed its doors, its owners heading down slightly different paths in the fandom. But with a recent growth in the quality and quantity of drum & bass producers making a name for themselves in the fandom, it has been reborn under new management.
And to kickstart the return of the channel, Equicity presents Tea Leaves by bank pain. Although perhaps better known for some of his hard-hitting tracks, bank pain takes on the liquid flavour of dnb here, with crisp and clean yet perfectly flowing drum loops and smooth basses.
What’s this? A new challenger appears? Whether or FWLR is gonna stick around the brony music scene at all, as hackd said on the above Cider Party video, “any artist who’s got the guts and humor to throw in some pony vocals onto a track is going to be pretty rad“. And besides, this song is just as good as many of the other top-notch tracks we see round these parts, so I happily welcome Good Intentions with open arms. Great job FWLR, hope to see you around in the future!

This dnb crew have been on fire recently, and the tunes just don’t stop coming! Liquid drum & bass is a lot more chilled out, and so it makes sense to pair it with some Fluttershy vocals, which Pony Music has done to great effect.

Totalspark and Kawaii Dash combine here to bring a weeb-y, whomp-y combination of neat sounds that help form a pretty cool future bass track. As is often the case with Totalspark tracks the chords are pretty interesting, whilst the Kawaii Dash influence is obvious in the way they whomp in with flair. Definitely worth checking out if you want some light and fluffy future!

Good sampling, great drums, and some neat bass design from his friend Age Of Vinyl all combine to deliver a somewhat haunting yet energetic drum & bass tune from Hay Tea. He’s been on fire recently and that doesn’t stop here with some really neat music about sad Derpy.
The original info for the 2nd HMC album said that the theme was going to be ‘chill winter themed’…So while perhaps this doesn’t quite fit that description, it’s certainly shows that Trixent isn’t afraid to let loose and go full throttle on his production. Agressive basses ahoy, take a listen for some hard-hitting music!
YES! THIS GETS A YES FROM ME. One of the most unique tracks I’ve ever heard from a Ponies At Dawn album (this being from Voyager, not the upcoming Amity btw). It’s also great at bringing a load of different talents together – combining Amiss’ singing, Freest’s rapping, and a solo from SaxBrony, all brought together by Homage’s funky fresh production to create one of my favourites from Voyager, and from the entire P@D catalogue thus far.
So…there was still quite a lot a Heath’s Warming-themed music left after our compilation post from a week ago, so to save a bit of time (I’ll level with you, we’re quite far behind everything at the moment), have a few of them compiled into a single post! Catch the whole thing after the break…
