(You can hear classic Open Skies Here, and the Francis Wide Skies cover Here, This cover is a combo of both songs.)
My Celestia, how could I have missed such an inspiring song in this fandom! Shame on this dragon pony. If you liked how uplifting the original was. The kind of fandom song that makes tears form in your eyes. Then Evdog adds just bit more to the mix. The lyrics are still there, but its the added Hip-Hop that makes it much more special. The new lyrics now speak for Scoots as she learned how to fly. How she never look back. However, my friends listen to those words. Those words can be used in all walks of life itself. Just picture yourself overcoming your own odds in life. The music itself has this reggae vibe to it. Delightly it fits pretty well with the uplifting mood. Hip-Hop has always been a form of music that is best when it’s done with meaning, and songs such as this are proof. Judge for yourself as always.

[Equinity] Cynifree – Kodama | Ambient House
I want you to picture something in your mind, as you hear the start of this. Rainbow Dash has been challenged to a fight by Lightning Dust. They both see each other in the distance as they fly at each other over the skies of Cloudsale. That’s the first 36 seconds of this song goes before the mood changes before both Pegasi are duking it out in an epic duel. There’s just enough intensity going in and out to give this song this epic dueling music with such an emotional atmosphere. It’s fitting that my colleague Cynifree is basing this off the real Japanese Kirin lore. I invite you to listen for yourself, As always judge for yourself and see if what this Dragon Pony says it true. It only the first track of the Equinity 01: Stellar album. Not a bad start!
[Equinity] CRUVOD – Gates of Tartarus | Big Room House
When MLP villains throw a rave, this is the kind of tracks that could play… Or so we could be tempted to believe, with such a title! CRUVOD definitely did amazing for their contribution to Equinity 01: Stellar, and the Big Room House track is quite danceable, with a hint of darkness! The Seal Is Broken!
Ardhy Mahardhy – Rainbow | Progressive House
Our rainbow-colored pegasus cutie will never cease to inspire the community! With nostalgic vibes and a definite cuteness to the music, Ardhy’s new track is quite lovely and we feel like flying with Dashie in the clouds while listening to this!
[Equinity] Shuffle Horse – Hot Salsa | Guaracha / Tribal House
Now this is an odd one! ‘Hot Salsa’ is Columbian tribal house song from Equinity 01: Stellar that carries itself with fun, fiesta-like vibe and gets straight to the point with a hammering deep bassline; You’re gonna want headphones or a decent subwoofer for this one! The very high leads meld wondrously with the basslines and the trumpets and vocal samples really bring out the aesthetic of this tune and is a very chaotic yet minimalistic piece. If you’re looking to party and need a very powerful groove, this is the track for you!
[Equinity] Jalmaan – Alive | Progressive House
A very upbeat and cheerful song by Jalmaan, ‘Alive’ ties in perfectly to the end goal of Equinity 01: Stellar, and that is to raise money for suicide prevention.
Opening with a catchy and punchy melody and bassline and the song’s energy quickly builds into a very danceable and energetic song! During the breakdown and bridge the atmosphere opens up with a hopeful mood and a clockwork vibe from the arpeggio and I like to think of that alluding to things getting better with time. This one conveys itself spectacularly and is a very welcoming choice for those looking for a more traditional house song influenced by the likes of Archie or Avicii.
FilledSilhoutte – Make-Up | French House
Bringing the groove and high danceability of French House, as well as some glamorous and ladylike vibes, FilledSilhoutte did amazing with this Rarity-themed track part of a new upcoming album “Rarity’s Fashion Playlist”! Come dance, move your hooves and shake your tail to the beat! It’s disco time!
TheBluishPony – Vinyl Rave | Future House
Woo!! What a boppin’ track from TheBluishPony! This is a seriously powerful dance track that really gives off those classic Vinyl Scratch vibes. The half-time switch in the drop adds some absolutely stunning variety to this already stellar track! What a fantastic addition to my playlist, and hopefully yours, too!
Evershade – More of a Rarity | House
One can’t just get enough of Rarity’s glamorous voice, that’s a well-known fact, and Evershade certainly has it right with this vocal chops-powered mix that pays much tribute to our beloved fashion lady. With a warm and very Equestrian atmosphere, the track is just a bliss to dive into, along Rarity’s world!
Viricide Filly – Vividddd | Downtempo / Experimental Garage
Viricide is no stranger to obscure and unique vibes and this is no exception! There is a very bright and airy atmosphere with those signature processed vocals with which the song opens, but once you get to the meat of the mix that is where she truly shines! A very gritty yet mellow mood with an exceptionally groovy bassline, there is something for everyone here as we follow Eleanor on her journey throughout the soon-to-be-released album “Yet Sightless”.
