“And here we’ll be, until life brings us elsewhere.”
Polishing up this elegant and laid back piece, Radiarc gives us a soothing perspective of life through song. I’ve always been amazed at what comes from this artist, the fine details and atmosphere painted; melding together ethnic, jazz, orchestral, and electronic elements to create something organic, alive. I find myself lost and thinking back on the hardships faced in life up until this point. Yet I’m still here. We’re still here. Through joy, through sadness, reminiscence, and hope we carry on. As our stories continue, just beyond the horizon.
Misc
Night Symphony – Pony of the Night | Soundtrack
This new piece from Night Symphony may be shorter than 2 minutes in duration, it is still mighty impressive and displays such progressive and melodic aspects that make it very similar to Soundtrack (for example OST from J-RPG games). A proof that you can do a lot in a short track duration, Pony of the Night blows us away with a progression between melodic parts on piano, strings, and organ. There’s even epic choruses backing up the melodies for an emotional result much fitting to the theme, as well as a drums accompaniment that brings variety to the orchestral arrangement and that is definitely reminiscent of Soundtrack. A little, sparkling gem of a track!
Remember Falling – Escape | Indie Pop / Alternate Electronic
One more step toward the release of the Monolith album, Escape presents another part of the plot of the story and displays RF’s alternate musical vision once more, one that definitely shows much creativity. An intricate progression of mysterious atmospheres and vocals in the dark open the path to a tasty drop that delivers hard-hitting-ness in such an unexpected yet blissful way!
[P@D] ILLUMNATION – Good Night | Dark Folk
Folk music is something that I don’t often see from the fandom, but its always something to cherish when it surfaces. ‘Good Night’ evokes a haunting melancholic mood and tells a tale of the two sisters, from Luna’s perspective as she waits out her isolation on the moon. Its a very soothing piece with Velvet R. Wings‘ signature vocals and some stellar and crisp instrumentation and if you have the time, you should really lend them your ear.
This track is available as part of Ponies at Dawn Enigma!
VoodooG & ShalMusicFX – Rise Of Luna’s Throne (feat. BriLizy T) | Orchestral Electronic
A labor of love, this masterpiece was crafted from the lovely collaboration of VoodooG, ShalMusicFX and BriLizy T, for a stunning result. Telling the rise of the power of Luna’s Night, the multi-genre song takes us through an epic road of gorgeous vocals, enthralling beats, beautiful strings, mad bells, and emotional choirs. It all works together so well and makes for such an intense experience! Go give lots of love and praise to the musicians everypony, because they sure deserve it with all of their hard work! For the Night!
MC-Arch & Mikuma – FlutterWubs | Hip-Hop
A love song toward Fluttershy made from the heart, and a token of the power of love and passion! That’s what you’re in for with FlutterWubs, MC-Arch’s collaboration with Mikuma that displays the passionate rapper’s feelings and vocal talents, as well as the moe Future musician’s proficiency at composing such a fluffy beat! This utterly lovely song is available as part of MC-Arch’s album If I ever Forget!
Mason al’Cat – I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day | Christmas Carol / Epic Orchestral
When Mason al’Cat blends classic Christmas carol style with Epic Orchestral, you can be sure that the result is gonna be sparkling! Gracing the song with his beautiful and powerful vocals, the musician totally nailed this anthem for the end of the year among ponies, all while making it sound so epic with those drums and background choruses!
The Shake Ups In Ponyville – Saddle Up and Go | Power Pop
Anoher YouTube release from the Ponymania album, this one sure brings the delightful Classic Rock vibes along the signature tribute to the Beatles, this time combined with a tribute to everyone’s favorite cowgirl! The vocals are so blissful and the whole song is so catchy, definitely another powerful release from The Shake Ups!
Remember Falling – I Am Brave (feat. Namii) | Indie Pop / Alternate Electronic
For the next part of the story and Hollow’s introspective journey, Remember Falling teamed up with the talented Namii once more, and delivers a gorgeous duet along inspired melodies and a quality electronic arrangement, that definitely shows the musician’s progress! It’s gonna be available as part of the upcoming album “Monolith”!
Rusty Thorsell – Courage (Hope and Chances) | Pop / Swing
Rusty is always good for something unique that only he could make and Courage fits that description perfectly. It is fun to bounce back and forth with this track while the piano sets much of the rhythm. Rusty accomplishes a nice, contrasting feel with the vocal work: singing in an upbeat tone to concepts of sad nostalgia mixed with optimism for hope and chances of the future. The latter portion of the song features a surprising and well-placed choir drop that doubles down on the energy of the track to round out the end of the song with a fun send-off.
