If there’s one artist who I can always rely on for quality house tracks, it’s Metapony. Not only is Meta’s choice of sounds so melodic and atmospheric, but their mixing is so clean as well, which puts any song in my good books. Take a listen to this remix of Ponytronic’s Blind Admiration, which will also be available on Tronic’s upcoming remix / orchestral suite album.
House
DJRedSky – Embrace | House
Old projects being revived to see the light of day is usually pretty nice. This deep/chill house piece from DJRedSky is nice and smooth, a good little track to relax to, making nice use of plucked and bowed string sounds throughout.
Daniel Ingram – Derby Racers (Enermatrix Remix) | House
Derby Racers from this week’s episode was a pretty fun song to listen, and the same goes for this remix of it. Simple but fun, and reminiscent of some of the fandom’s earliest show song remixes.
Various Artists – JapanPonyParty! Vol.3 | Album | Multi-Genre
We completely missed this when it first released back in May, but thanks to someone sending it in to us, we’re able to share it with you today! This compilation album featuring artists from the Japanese fandom scene was released at Japan Ponycon in May earlier this year. It features some names you might recognise (e.g. Oodoratoo2, delfino), but also has a wide variety of other artists you may never have heard of, and a huge range of genres too! The above video contains previews of each track, and the album itself can be downloaded from JPP’s website for free!
Dynamite Grizzly – Mad Mare Machines | Techno
Here’s a “euro-groove” from the one and only Grizzly (also congrats on hitting 1000 subs ayy). I admit I was totally expecting something in the way of “Yellow Line” from the producer as soon as I saw there was a racing episode, and while this track does opt for a more complex, chill approach, it’s still a nice retro tune for the techno fans.
Synthis – Insane (Otarine Remixes) | House
Here’s a double feature from Otarine who has taken two different remix approaches to Synthis’ track “Insane” ft. Sora. This first one takes some inspiration from the tech house style predominantly heard in the hypnotic lead loop.
This second remix additionally employs a bright, house approach with the heavy use of detuned chords pumping over a steady beat.
4EverfreeBrony – Future (What Are The Odds) [Spectra Remix] | Progressive House
Having been away from home for some time, 4EverfreeBrony is finally returning home, and to celebrate his return our very own Spectra has whisked up this catchy and polished house-y remix of one of his many classic tracks. It even has a bit of a dubstep breakdown for some added variety later on. A worthy welcome back package for sure.
Daniel Ingram – The Spectacle (Knife Pony Remix) | Electro House
Knife Pony appear to be moving on from their horse alias to something else, but they’re ending it with their aptly named ‘Finale’ album. This track is a banger of a remix of that dance tune ‘The Spectacle’ – it’s had quite a few remixes by now and this definitely stands amongst them as one of the clubbier ones.
Violin Melody – Shadows | Electro House
Inspired by the king of shadows himself, Sombra, this electro track from Violin Melody manages to combine solid synth design with some catchy melodies and subtle dark undertones – a track worthy of the inspiration source for sure!
UndreamedPanic – Crystal Empire | Bass House
A follow up to one of the best bass house tracks in the fandom (not many takers there so far!), Dark Crystals, Panic brings us Crystal Empire. Does this live up to the previous track? Absolutely! With some really nice vocal samples building into the track, it then proceeds to knock one’s metaphorical socks off with some clean, heavy bass noises that hit just right.
