Today we got ourselves some more Sugar in the form of Dropper Vampire’s new big room house masterpiece Broken Soul and contrary to what you might believe after reading the title this is not a sad song, it’s actually a rather upbeat song. It already starts out with some awesome house tunes and no sign of calming down insight… at least until the beat suddenly stops and the lovely lyrics begin closely followed by a hook so catchy you can’t do anything but dance. After some lovely sample tunes the beat builds up until it once more transitions into the state of 120% cool. Suddenly the beat calms down a lot and slowly starts building up again with lyrics until we once more transition into the hook. After some more singing the beat builds up a last time. Now let’s focus on the lyrics for a second: The lyrics are essentially about someone in a relationship that broke and it really had a deep impact on the singer who seems angry at her partner.

[ASOS] Voltex Pixel & Cynifree & Paloris – Flame To Fire | Melodic Dubstep
Today we have yet another Sugar post, this time Voltex Pixel, Cynifree and Paloris have come together to bring us this amazing Melodic Dubstep track that is sure to lift your spirits. This song is about the friendship of Spike and Smolder and starts out with a beat and some samples and slowly adds more beats, it slowly begins building up and eclipses in the hook with some completely different and yet similar beats. After the hook the song becomes simpler but immediately starts adding more beats and building up again until the catchy hook plays once more. This track no matter if you like dubstep, no matter if you like melodic tracks will make you move you head along to the beat and make you dance as soon as the hook hits.
[ASOS] Voltex Pixel & Camelia – Stuck In The Cloud | Future House
Welcome everypony to A State of Sugar: Chocolate, the newest album from our friends over at Cider Party. For now we’ve got ourselves a lovely house track by Voltex Pixel. The track starts out amazing and believe me when I say it gets even better! I personally love all things horse house but even if you don’t, this track is going to make you dance either way. Voltex Pixel also keeps his near PMV style music videos with various artworks of, in this case Fluttershy and gameplay from ‘Them’s Fightin Herds’. This track is sure to lift your spirits with its happy upbeat tune and the combination of Future House and Future Bounce makes for an amazing dance track.
Altius Volantis – Scars I Used To Wear | Ambient
Today we’ve got ourselves a deep song by Altius Volantis. According to himself this is the most personal song he ever made and you can hear that in the track. The song starts out with thunder and a piano that slowly gets louder and is sure to drive a chill down your spine, another piano joins in and now it’s clearly audible how much heart went into this song. The song gets increasingly more complicated with more instruments joining in but still keeps the chilling tone and you can hear your own scars rising to the song. This song will bring out the scars all of us live with an reminds us not only of their existence but also of how we lived with them and overcame them and shows us no matter how big your scars have no matter what effect they have on you and others you will overcome them.
[ASOS] Thorinair – Lessons in Friendship | Uplifting Trance
Brony Fandom! Are you ready for A State of Sugar: Chocolate!? Wella, let this dragon pony kick off Horse Music Herald’s coverage with a mythical track. An epic song about our beloved Book Horse and newly crowned ruler of Equestria, Twilight Sparkle!
Thorinair has been away from the scene for a while. What an amazing way to return with a track of epic production!
You want a breathtaking song about her, Then get ready for a real treat!
After everything that has happened in 9 seasons, this track tells one big story: Through all of the trials, the quests, the dangers, the lesson, the hardships, and the seemingly insurmountable odds that Twilight has had to face, she has had the strength and courage to face her own demons and overcome them all. The wonderful beat that carries this track gives you such a big smile, as you can picture Twilight running to this beat through all of these past adventures. Oh, those hyper snap drums before the drops are like a huge burst of positive light hitting you. The slow and emotional melody with such inspiring elements and keyboard notes is so powerful. You feel like you are there with twilight as she passes each test and bests each challenge. She’s never been alone; she had her friends and every single brony standing behind her giving her support. You really can see her grow as a character as the song progresses. There is a section right in the middle of the track that builds up into this emotional drop that will give you chills. It recalls a great moment from the series finale, when Twilight’s friends believed in her when she didn’t believe in herself and the stakes were so high. We all watched our screens and believed in her when she felt she had messed up so badly and failed everyone she loved. (you can watch that clip here) When that drop happens, it is like the moment when Twilight found her resolve and became a hero that refused to be stopped. This track is so powerful and so uplifting, you will be yelling “BOOK HORSE!” with passion. This is the Twilight song that we needed. As always this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
AC-527 – Keep On Fluttering Along (feat. Thornquill) | Electro
Today we got ourselves a lovely track from AC-527, who is in the process of making songs about all the main six, all about our favorite shy yellow horse. The track works a lot with soundbites from the show and combines them with a lovely electro beat in addition to that there is a short part where the background beat gets really upbeat and happy with only a few soundbites in between and just for this part the song is already worth listening to. Also, believe it or not the Discord you hear in there is not John de Lancie but from a fandom VA known as Thornquill and I have to say it took me until I read the description to realize that those are not soundbites from the show too.
Yuru – Endeavour | House
Today we got ourselves a track by a lesser known artist by the name of Yuru (Redstone Brony on YT and Soundcloud) who brings us an amazing house track. The track starts out with a beat that goes from simple to awesome in ten seconds flat (literally) and keeps on building until it transitions into a simpler beat which starts building again until it reaches its apex in a melody that will make you dance no matter where you are. Later it transitions back into a simpler, calmer melody that gives you time to breathe after all the dancing and than starts building up again until it once more reaches its apex in the same dance melody from before.

[Equinity] Power Note – Backdoor | Techno
This right here is a genre that needs to be shown off in the fandom more often! This 100% good ol’ fashion techno. It goes right into the theme of Equinity 3. The awesome melody embodies the mascot of the label trying to make a great escape from a grand heist. The beats and effects really push the tempo on the drama of this story. Each of the effects, like the use of the keyboard notes, the rumbling and rolling pace and even the harmonies used as well are nice. The pounding bass with the grindy buzz sounds like an alarm system going off and she has to swiftly leave before she is trapped. Oh, and a nice little easter egg at the end there as well. Techno still is one of the best genres of electronic music and needs to be used so much more in my opinion. As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
[Equinity] Single Purpose – Blue Coated Smug Horse VIP | Glitch-Hop
So how do you make a track better when it was already featured on P@D: Skyward? (You can listen to that track here). I’d say this is upping the game here.
So… If you like a track about how annoying Trixie is, then here you go, fans of Trixie. As said by my colleague Canatime in our in Equinity 3 album review, the track is full of elements that really highlight Trixie’s personality traits, being that they are annoying and cute at the same time. As said by him, a delightful reese bass sound, incredibly mixed drums, a smooth lead and even cheeky vocal chop all highlight Trixie’s character in a well composed package. Single Purpose sure has a winner here. As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
[Equinity] Budzy – Throwback | Dubstep
Today we have got ourselves another great song from the Equinity 3: Breach album. Budzy brings us a Dubstep track modeled after his older releases. The track starts out how you expecte a clubsong to start out: with happy uptune beats, but as soon as the beat picks up you know this isn´t your run-off-the-mill club song, the massive beat is sure to blow you off your feet and the beat from the beginning get´s repeated in different versions through out the song and is sure to make you smile. Lovers and haters of Dupstep alike I can promise a exceptional experience with this stellar track.
