[P@D] Metapony – Everfree / EnsionD – Horse Feelings (ft. Francis Vace) | Progressive House

It may seem like it’s ambient, but it’s not quite! Although, yes, it does take a very long time to get into the beat, that time is well spent creating a wonderful atmosphere. Then when the drums do finally kick in, we get Metapony’s signature pluck sounds and the super clean mixing that I adore in all of their songs.

And now for something a little bit different – “fresh new audio delivered straight to your ear canal”. I think the lyrics are self-explanatory so I’ll just say that, as with Meta’s track, this is full of very nice clean, melodic sounds with excellent mixing.

[P@D] Progressive Element – Stars and Sky / Flak – Walls (New Patrol Remix) | House

A couple of pretty chill pieces to end the day. First up is a deep house track from Progressive Element; it may be a tad repetitive but if you’re looking to revisit the 90s it’s definitely one to go for!

What’s this? A new challenger has appeared! NewPatrol has been active on SoundCloud for a while now, but here makes his debut on YouTube, in the brony music scene, and on a Ponies At Dawn album. This remix of Flak’s Walls has both the characteristics of modern-day future house and that sort of summery house sound that arose around 2010 (think Edward Maya, Inna, and that sort of stuff). In other words, a solid track!

[P@D] Jyc Row & Francis Vace – Celestial Beserkers (ft. IbeConCept) | Celtic Metal Big Room

No, seriously.

This one certainly took me by surprise when I heard it. Not only does Jyc take a shot at more of an electronic side of production than usual, but it’s combined with his own celtic orchestral style, Francis’s input on the metal sections and IbeConCept is brought in to rap in the verses.  There is literally an influence from every category we put things into here (Electronic, Rock, and Misc), and I’ve never heard anything quite like this. Kudos to the three of you for this!

Ponies At Dawn – Voyager | Compilation Album | Multi-Genre


Here it is, what’s bound to be the best Ponies At Dawn album yet. With each new album comes both a new selection of artists as well as some of the great ones who have been around for a while – something that is in my opinion the best balance when compiling brony music.

The album is available completely for free on Bandcamp, or you pay whatever amount you wish for it. You can expect to see many of the songs from it posted on the site in the coming days and weeks!

ertrii – You Know Well | Chill House

I was very happy to see this in my subscriptions box the other day. One of the masters of chill music, ertrii, has a new song after a few months of silence and it’s as relaxing as you’d expect. Let’s start the day off on a chill note, sit back and take a listen to this.

Technickel Pony – Sweepin’ The House | House

Oh look. The sweep remix train is still going. How about that?

Jokes aside, this is pretty cool. I’m reminded a lot of the soundtracks to the old Spyro games for some reason. Perhaps not intentional in the slightest, but it gives me a reason to enjoy it more :L

4everfreebrony – Hoping (DJRedSky Remix/Cover) | Deep House

Based on a cover DJRS himself did of the 4everfreebrony song Hoping from about a year ago, they’ve gone and remixed it using the vocal track from said version. Turns out those vocals sped up to ~120bpm work pretty well with a deep house style beat underneath, with the instruments following a classic 90s house feel – a both chill and blissful rendition of the original.

Vylet Pony – Love Letters | Album | Electronic


Making a seemingly very speedy turnaround from the release of Super Pony World this summer, Vylet’s back with another album, this one about Rarity. Not quite as monumental as SPW, however Love Letters still contains 12 tracks, more than qualifying it for a full album status. Read on for a look at each track one-by-one as it transitions through many phases of electronic music with hints of jaaazzzz.
