I remember hearing some of Art’s music a couple of years ago, and I’m delighted to see them return to the fandom music scene once again. Just to have some new jazz is wonderful, let alone that this particular piece is absolutely fantastic! Definitely worth taking a listen whatever your taste in music.
Misc
Elias Frost – Lullaby for a Princess (covering Ponyphonic) | Gregorian Chant
We’ve seen a fair few acapella songs from the fandom, and plenty of covers of Lullaby for a Princess, but Gregorian chants are few and far between. Expect organs, pads, and a ton of reverb in Elias Frost’s take on the fandom classic.
Sonic Rainboom – The Fuck-Up (feat. Francis Vace) | Industrial Pop
Sonic Rainboom teams up with the vocal talents of Francis Vace to deliver a powerful piece of music about the deep inner feelings of Trixie. In fact, in the description of the track SR goes into quite deep detail about his feelings behind Trixie’s behaviour. The way the main part of the song comes in is just raw power, and this track is one of SR’s best in my opinion.
Sights Unseen – Awakening | Orchestral Synthpop
In something of a stylistic shift for Sights Unseen, we’re presented with something a bit different from his usual style. With an ambient introduction building into an orchestral soundscape, the first few minutes of this track would make a solid piece by themselves, however 2 and a half minutes in it pounds out some beautiful synth melodies, and continues in much the same style throughout, shifting between orchestral and synth-driven movements.
Lycan Dese Beats – Season 2 Episode 20
As LDB brings you the latest and greatest songs of the fandom, we have “Pony Bands” in our theme this week including The Shake Ups in Ponyville, AcoustiMandoBrony, and The Wonderbolts. In the new music part of the show, we spotlight some drum and bass with Protocat, an interesting song about socks with the Luna Ticks and a Tubby Wubby Pony Waifu cover by Crusader!

Alexey Kotlyar – Welcome Solitude | Orchestral
I haven’t heard a whole lot of music from this artist, but the progression of this track is really quite pretty, and whilst some parts feel a bit raw, that somewhat adds to the emotion of the piece. There are parts where I feel like I can hear the weight of the piano keys, and along with the emotive strings, it makes for a touching end to the evening.
Little Jester – Walk | Chill
Following on with the relaxing vibes, Little Jester brings us a playful little chill track about Twilight that walks along beautifully, pulling us in its wake. Just the thing to follow along with during an afternoon break, or something similar.
GhostXb – All Hope is (Not) Lost | Orchestral
Comissioned by a friend for another friend, GhostXb has created a soundtrack for the fanfic series Crystal Siege. You can find the link to that in the video description.
New Reverian – Redwood Robin | Orchestral
The amazing New Reverian, talented in multiple genres delivers us a charming little orchestral track. This song has smooth, well pulled off transitions and it all gives me the feels. Definitely worthy of best flower pony.
Rusty Thorsell – Best Day | Indie Pop
Rusty never fails to bring to life unique and happy melodic bliss and this song especially feels like a musical embodiment of raw positivity to me. An original and beautiful instrumental, and cute vocals that make you want to prance around in a grassy meadow holding balloons, give to this song its unique charm.
