To mark 5 years since the release of the original, ismBoF (finally) released their acoustic rendition of their classic metalcore song Gimme RD. This wonderfully mellow version is perhaps even more skillful than the original, it takes a lot of work to make a purely acoustic track sound as good as this one does!

Full tracklist after the break
Crusader! – Party of Two | Acoustic Rock
Let’s end the day on an uplifting little love song from Crusader! This song tells the story of a pony whose life was completely turned around by Pinkie Pie. It features Crusader’s signature acousticy pop-rock sound based largely around acoustic instruments, with some electric rhythm guitar and even a harmonica thrown in for good measure.
Redire – Sunlit Memories | Orchestral
Orchestral artist Redire has released a Celestia inspired composition that seemingly creates a moment of introspection as she chronicles her memories of times past. The piece remains uplifting in accordance to the idea that we cling to times of good stronger than those of pain.
Radiarc – Ex Machina | Orchestral
It’s time to immerse into a darker concept, story and song with Radiarc’s new release, Ex Machina, “by the machine”, nothing short of breathtaking. With a complete description to go along with the music, this track full of intriguing soundscapes and dark yet beautiful choruses will guide you through this unusual yet enjoyable mood.
Sonic Hooves – Dawns of Equestria | Orchestral
Sonic Hooves graces us with a wonderful piece embodying many aspect of Equestria for us to remember – and even feel – what it would be like, through the power of music. Its wonderful harmonies, emotional melodies, and regal instruments all participate to convey both the strength and the tenderness, both the values and the feelings portrayed by our beloved ponies, as we are the witness of many Dawns of Equestria in our soul.
Jyc Row – Castle of Time [Timey-Wimey] | Orchestral
Epic musician Jyc Row brings us an another amazing piece of work. The melodies are fabulous and lively while the percussion adds a powerful driving force. Just like clockwork.
The Shake Ups In Ponyville – Cupcake Versus Muffin | Pop Rock
The Shake Ups have another song from their album ROCK CANDY for us. Known for their fun “power pop” songs, this one is no exception, and attempts to tackle the age old question of “cupcake or muffin?” I say, why not both?!
Aurelleah – Midnight Lament (feat. ButterflyIdentity & Decibelle) | Aria
Brace yourself everypony, because the spiritual heir of Lullaby for a Princess is here! Assiduous composer Aurelleah teamed up with talented singers ButterflyIdentity and Decibelle to bring you this emotional Aria, emphasizing on the powerful feelings at play during Celestia and Luna’s reunion. Share your emotion as we stand united by what we feel for those characters! Also if you can, consider giving a few bits for the song on Bandcamp because Aurelleah’s in need!
Crystal Slave – Staying Here Tonight | Electro-Pop
NB: The original video was deleted, the above is an archive re-upload.
Crystal Slave brings us a winter song…in June. Welp, it’s about as accurate as Discovery Family’s scheduling. Regardless, this song has a delightful Owl City vibe to it, and reminds me of a certain other winter-themed song about Pinkie…Coincidence? Probably.
