Who said only ponies would get songs dedicated to them? In this lovely track by EveryDayDashie we get a feel for what it has to be like to step into Zephyr Heights for the first time, like the city this track has all sorts of fun elements, making for a fun combination to really enjoy!
Electronic
Toby Macarony – Butterfly Pegasi | Drum & Bass
Toby Macarony’s talent truly knows no end! In his newest track he brings us a fun drum and bass piece, featuring some amazing traditional flutes, which manages to, despite the upbeat synth melody and fire drums, give the whole song this traditional vibe in parts, but when it isn’t traditional this song goes all out with a melody that’ll stay in your ear for a while and a beat that’ll make you bop your head up and down without an end in sight!
PSMFer – Dreamstate | Halftime Drum & Bass
A while ago there appeared a little podcast thingy from Princess Pipp that was supposed to help you fall asleep, but instead of that PSFMer stayed awake and crafted a beat that will truly make your skin crawl! Sampling the podcast and creating this dark and eerie vibe around it was something unexpected but PSFMer nailed it an managed to turn it into a banger!
Thorinair – Blackening Empire (Nicolas Dominique Remix) | Trance
Two icons of the brony trance scene collide here as Nicolas Dominique puts his spin on a song of Thorinair’s from almost a decade ago (time flies, eh?). This version is much more downtempo than the original, and manages to feel both energetic and somewhat relaxing too – a quality I like that seems to apply to a lot of Nicolas’ work.
Vylet Pony – ANTONYMPH (Vylet Ponystep Remix) | Ponystep
EVERYPONY PUT YOUR HOOVES UP /) (\ as we travel back to 2015! As well as a 1337 “2009 N3wgr0undz V3rs10n“, in tribute to art inspired by the song, Vylet has made this dubtrot ponystep remix of her smash hit ANTONYMPH in celebration of its first anniversary. It’s reminiscent of some of her earlier work in the pony music scene, and the MLP-inspired dubstep that drew so many of us in to the brony music scene in the early 2010s (but with better mixing 😉). Check it out if that’s your jam, or you’re just feeling the nostalgia.
VibePoniez – Downtown | Compilation Album
It’s here! The latest edition of lofi smol hors beats to relax/study to! Following their release party at the weekend, VibePoniez’ new album Downtown is available to download now. Featuring 30 songs, mostly oriented towards a chill / relaxed feel, the album showcases a variety of musicians from the fandom. And best of all? It’s free! You can get Downtown from VibePoniez’ Bandcamp and name your own price.
Nyanakaru – Oneiromancy | Polka / Trap
Editor’s note: mild content warning
Naynakaru, over the past eleven months, has been creating something special on his channel. A series of music videos called “Methodic Ways To Break a Mind”. To put it best, it’s some of his best work to date with the magic of mixing genres that he’s got a natural talent for, paired with some engaging animated videos. A mystery surrounding this strange book comes to a head with AJ integrating a perplexed Sweetie Belle! The significant part is that Polka has been paired with Trap and works so well with the scene you are watching unfold here! It adds drama, insanity, and intrigue to this ongoing series of events! As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself!
The Wilders – All for the Love of Trash (NYMUND9 Remix) | House
That didn’t take long… No more than a day after “Dumpster Diving” premiered for MLP: Tell your Tale, this fun little remix of this song was dropped by NYMUND9. The topic is a tad strange, but if you have seen the episode, you will get it. The song’s composition is given a bouncy makeover to give some vibrancy to Izzy’s search for that ring she needs for Sunny. The phrase “one pony’s trash is another pony’s treasure” is taken to another level with loud and blaring bass, and echo changes to the tone of Izzy’s lyrics that amps the type of optimistic melodies you get from the mood of this song. As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
[VibePoniez] PHES – Boardwalk Ballad | Chill Funk
Vibeponiez: Downtown wastes little time in its 7th release by immersing you in the sandy beaches of Maretime Bay with Sunny Starscout with this fly track by PHES! Sunny insists that it is party time with an ice-cold smoothie and the waves looking prime for surfing. The melody, the slapping bass, and the 90’s beach vibe with the smooth lo-fi beats make you feel like you’re enjoying the overcast of sunray as Sunny is building a sand castle with Izzy, Hitch, Pipp, and Zipp. Oh, and those soft radio vocals oozing with the chill factor as waves are heard over the boardwalk of Maretime Bay. As always, This Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
[VibePoniez] GhostXb – Midnight Bliss | Downtempo
I love GhostXb’s chilled out hip-hop songs like this one. He manages to create pieces with full, punch drums, but the rest of the instrumentation still brings a sense of calm a relaxation. But this also has a bit of a twist as it gorgeously transitions halfway through into a more ambient section. It feels like a sonic representation of breaking through the clouds to a clear night sky… Fitting choice of background art then, isn’t it?
