New release by Luck Rock, and you know what that means! Alt Rock pony time! This time focusing on Twilight’s character depth, Luck made a wonderful tribute with more focus on vocals and keyboards, and the lovely vocals as well as the very “Twilight” melodies and sounds all do wonders to bring a very cute and warm experience for the ears as well as the soul!
Misc
Vylet Pony – Oak Library | Lofi Hip-Hop
The cheerful comfort of a happy home and good company. The golden oaks seemed like more than just a home for Twilight but an extremely fitting extension of her character. It was a relaxed setting of simplicity and comfort for a librarian horse, her friends, and their daily life challenges and shenanigans. An implementation of soft and cheery instrumentations and a few thoughtful vocals simply make this song feel cozy and welcoming. Vylet’s Oaks library is a perfect tribute to this important and memorable setting from the show’s early seasons. (I think I miss the Golden Oaks <3)
Zephysonas – Snow Song | Ambient Orchestral
Capturing the very sensation of the winter season, here is a great instrumental piece highlighting the magic and mystery of snowfall at dusk. Zephysonas uses ambient piano chords which immediately bring images of wintertime and the early dark of night while keeping the tone of the track light with playful mallets invokng visions of light, frosty snowflakes dancing in the breeze. Simple, yet refined, Snow Song is a great example of how music can make you feel the cold of winter in such a way that you appreciate the season for the sensation.
Jyc Row feat. BlackGryph0n & Michelle Creber – Flamethrone Legacy (2018 Version) | Orchestral
Jyc row, I am so PROUD of you! look at you go man, collabing with Michelle Creber and Blackgryph0n! Wooo! Although the Woodlore version stays amazing, I think Gabriel also did a marvelous job! Props to you both for a spectacular performance. Michelle Creber killing it though! If I will one day talk about the best re-masters I’ve ever heard in my life, this track will definitely be in it! The orchestra, the melody, and definitely the vibe! Through the water, the wind, and the fire, we can feel it! Marvelously done both of you. Jyc I love you bro and I’m so proud of you! ❤ Keep it all up man all of you! I’m with you all the way! Everybody, you know what to do. 😉 ❤
Sonic Hooves – Lonely Planet | Piano Solo
Encompassing the soothing nature of the Night and its many wonders once more, Sonic Hooves takes us on another musical Night stroll along Luna. Classical piano melodies are painting a gorgeous nightscape for the soul to enjoy, and it all makes for another wonderful composition from the musician. It’s available as part of the album Nocturnal Harmonies!
The Shake Ups In Ponyville – Hey! Hey! | Power Pop
Focusing on paying tribute to the “Fab Four” Beatles in this new release from the upcoming album Ponymania!, The Shake Ups not only composed a very lovely song in their style but also went all the way to make a full music video, even dressing as them! Full of win, this song is also a nod at drummer Pinkie along the canon ponification of the Beatles as seen in S05E11 Party Pooped (which remains one of my favorite MLP episodes ever in great part thanks to that). I even got that picture edit printed on a T-shirt!
MC-Arch & TCB – We Will Remember | Hip-Hop
Crazy masterpiece incoming! MC-Arch and TCB teamed up and both went all-out to convey beliefs and emotion with this gorgeous and impactful piece. It combines TCB’s very emotional musical style of many instruments including a guitar and pony vocal chops, with Arch’s meaningful lyrics and heartfelt vocals that tell several important and relatable messages explained in the description. A wonderful display of love and passion, We Will Remember will remain gold forever.
Lukas Vokrinek – Twilight Suite | Orchestral
Created from a place of highest respect for the Princess of Friendship, Lukas Vokrinek orchestrated his Twilight Suite by tapping into the “delicacy, hope, and determination” of her character. This highly inspired track amazes for both its relaxing qualities as well as the epic build throughout the piece. Starting softly with just a couple instruments including “raindrop” piano keys, this short suite grows both in energy and instrumentation into a big orchestra, proclaiming the greatness of the Princess of Friendship!
DoctorSympony – Dancing Through Dreamscape | Orchestral
DoctorSympony is back with a wonderful character theme of sorts for Luna and her nighttime work as the guardian of ponykind’s dreams, and it just reflects perfectly that serious-ness, ethereal nature, and a bit playful side of Luna’s personality and activity! Night-like piano and eldritch oboe set the mood perfectly and create a stunning BGM of choice to play in that map in a game if it existed, controlling Luna or following her!
174UDSI – I Won’t Go Back To My Past (feat. Vexillographer) | Orchestral / Electronic
174UDSI and Vexillographer team up for this amazing orchestral composition. An uplifting, rather happy song, it’s a bit of a break from 174UDSI’s traditional genre of electronic. However, that’s some of the draw – hearing a musician try a new genre is always exciting and interesting, and here, he does a fantastic job.
