That title is a mouthful! Tw3Lv3 has taken one of the many memorable songs from Ponies At Dawn’s ‘Rebirth’ album and added a more upbeat and four-to-the-floor style to the original lo-fi hip hop track while still retaining that slick and swingy flow provided by all of the associated vocalists involved. A fresh coat of paint with a crunchy bass and a laid back yet energetic vibe. This one is a great one!

PHES – Somepony To Cry With | French House
PHES’ focus on french house often results in some exceptionally groovy tunes, and this piece is no exeption. Featuring a combination of pony vocal chops from Equestria Girls and sampling from The Rah Band’s Tears and Rain, there’s a mellow atmosphere throughout the track that’s perfect for getting into a good vibe with.
Loopyy & Koa – Siren Song (Khaliber Remix) | Colour Bass / Future Bass
There’s been a lot of great remixes of Siren Song as of late and this is no exception! Opening with some very snappy vocal chops over a catchy trap beat, things only get more energetic during the drop! Pumping out some heavy colour bass vibes while still knowing when to bring everything back. This song ebbs and flows with great tension and release with a neat balance between future bass and colour bass and I am here for it!
Caedon Hawk – Underwater | Pop
Caedon Hawk ponders the challenges of being a musical creator with this softly soulful track. The artist delivers their introspective analysis with fantastic vocals that float softly over a subtly groovy bassline and melody. Ultimately, the artist resolves to fight through the doubt that can result in that “underwater” feeling and chase after their dreams, and it’s my hope that anyone struggling with their own self-doubt will find the drive to do the same!
Maldecid – Magic Master | Deathstep
Maldecid harnesses the intensity and some great vocal chops from Twilight’s conflict with Trixie in the episode “Magic Duel”, and the result is this gripping Deathstep tune! The track pulses with magic and emotion, seemingly mimicking Twilight’s struggle with being bested by Trixie and her challenge to find a way to block out the negativity from this experience and defeat her. It’s a fiercely melodic journey through a wonderfully textured soundscape!
[P@D] GrazySmash – Faravahar | Psytrance
GrazySmash always manages to find interesting ways to keep his flavour of psytrance fresh, and this track from Aurora is yet another example of that. Featuring a terrific lead synth that sounds clean, fresh and wonderfully suited to the atmospherics created by the psy bass and horn stabs, it’s definitely a banger.
JoinedTheHerd – Patience | Melodic House
JTH us back with another masterpiece! It’s been awhile huh? Well worth the wait as we are gifted with a lusciously rich soundscape with a driving yet mellow rhythm behind it with a myriad of great Pinkie vocal chops and a wonderful switch up to wrap everything up! If you’ve been waiting like I have, your patience will be rewarded with this one!
Vylet Pony – i’ve still got something to teach you | Prog Pop
Editor’s note: what even is genre?
I adore story-telling, whether it be through music, miniature table-top games, or movies. The magic of experiencing how someone sees and builds their world is a wonderful experience. This is why I’m ABOLUTELY HYPED for Vylet Pony’s new upcoming album “Fish Whisperer”! Vylet takes her projects like this song in a truly magical and amazing direction! Dare I say, this is a(nother) magnum opus of hers! The sudden switches, the majestic vocals, the mood and ambience elevating higher and higher; it’s truly amazing! Canni Trout isn’t bluffing when our lovely fish friend says that there is SOOO MUCH to show, experience, feel and, of course, to learn. Thank you for this wonderful lesson, Canni!
Kaida – Twilight | Trance
I love me a bit of trance, and evidently so does Kaida! This track, part of her ongoing “Princess Project”, is dedicated to our favourite book horse protagonist. Sparkling, arpeggiated melodies and ethereal pads accompany a driving beat, with a nice additional touch of a string instrument to add a slight melancholic contrast to the other uplifting elements. It’s classic trance – need I say more?
