Those who played Detroit: Become Human might enjoy this release in a special way, as it was inspired by an artwork by DiscordTheGE that ponifies it! Lukas’ piece musically represents Sweetie Belle and Rarity’s elegant aura, as well as the “becoming pony” moment from the story. It thus provides a delicate experience perfectly matching the concept, with gorgeous Orchestral instruments as well as subtle electronic additions reflecting the more futuristic/sci-fi vibes.
Misc
[ASOS] MC-Arch & AgondrayyThaBeast – The Only | Hardcore Hip-Hop
MC-Arch in da house!! And with AgondrayyThaBeast on the beat, they’re bringing fire to the party with hardcore rapping and provocative lyrics over an enthralling instrumental. Much love from the “Flutterdefender” was poured into this as always, and also lots of fun with trying out a new style for A State of Sugar Bubblegum. We go all the way for the ponies we love, go through hell if we must, but love will prevail! Rrriah!
JoshSaysStuff & FritzyBeat – Not A Second Late (Acoustic) | Acoustic Pop
FritzyBeat comes back with an acoustic cover of Not A Second Late performed by JoshSaysStuff! And what is greater than have the original artist helping in the instrumental?! The guitar melodies together with the ukulele and the magnificent vocals of Fritzy makes this version a sweet and catchier version than the original! Thank you Fritzy for this version and for being awesome! And thank you Josh for creating such an amazing song!
[ASOS] F 109 – Luna De Los Instrumentos (Album Version) | Experimental
F 109 is one of the biggest leading figures in the experimental pony music scene right now, and they hit hard with their magnificent track for A State of Sugar Bubblegum! This version is only about 2 minutes, and I recommend listening to the longer Original Version (included as a bonus track if you download the album from Bandcamp) for even more progressive experimental greatness. Beats, bass, flute, guitar, violin… This track is a wonderful trip and breath of foreign air!
AstralAmity – The Harmony Overture (Intro feat. Whovian) | Orchestral / Electronic
AstralAmity’s powerful experiences have led her to imbue much depth in her works, and it is certainly palpable in this intro track from an upcoming album! From the inspired experimentation and progression, to the use of different instruments and styles, to the epic storytelling, this moving Overture is delivering much emotion and depth, and shows what you can expect from the album!
Equestria Electric Symphony Orchestra – Rainbow Dash (Soar Into The Blue) | Synthpop / Orchestral
I like this, thissa good track :3 I like the lyrical arrangement and that playing together with the melody. As someone myself with feelings for somebody I care about a lot (and like, truly love) I can relate to this track. The symphony is performed marvelously and I really enjoyed listening to this. Rainbow Dash is proud of y’all ❤ Well done guys, great work!
Turquoise Splash – So Much Left To See | Soft Rock
What an amazing surprise to have a new release from the long-time fandom great, Turquoise Splash! So Much Left to See is exactly as amazing as you would expect from someone who has been a big part of so many fandom hits over the years, featuring incredibly beautiful vocals and a gorgeous acoustic guitar. The track is a love song between Derpy and Doctor Whooves with Splash singing of how much better things are for the ponies to be together. It is difficult to listen to just once and that’s a fantastic quality to have in a song.
[ASOS] RoomVR – Let’s Go For A Walk | Orchestral
RoomVR’s heartfelt new masterpiece moved the audience a lot during the live release party of A State of Sugar Bubblegum, and its storytelling intent and personal meanings are certainly a part of what made the track to be so impactful. Music is magic, and in times like these it can not only make you feel powerful and otherworldly emotions, but also convey the creator’s feelings and being thus empowered by that. Insane talent, beautiful creativity and musical vision, personal feelings, and an intent to share them, all contributed to make this divine experience of sound possible. Truly an amazing tribute to what you can feel while being surrounded by the beauty and peace of Nature, during a walk in the woods…
Elias Frost – While My Yovidaphone Gently Drones | Traditional Yak Music
Playing on the name of the classic While My Guitar Gently Weeps from The Beatles, Elias Frost follows up on the early-released new episode with more yovidaphone play that would impress more than one yak. Complete with mighty percussions representing the pride of the yak kingdom, and other traditional instruments, the song is a much welcome continuation to the episode’s lore and pays much tribute to it.
Yak happy! Yak smash!
Steely Hooves – Under My Wing | Acoustic
Steely Hooves Is back with this great piece that explores the interesting relationship between two of our favourite pegasi. The guitar work here is just lovely, and its backed by some simple percussion that complements it very well. I especially like the vocals here, they are relaxed and smooth, but there is a very strong voice behind them. Keep up the great work Steely.
