GNG – A Dashie Anthem | Rap/Hip-Hop

Content Warning: Explicit lyrics

In this track, GNG symbolically conjures a mass of thunderclouds crackling with electric overdrive and dense to the point of sensory overload. Fascinating artistic use is made of the ethereally shifting tones which can result from running pure electric feedback through many layers of noise reduction.
Everything is distorted; You might not even know the lyrics were explicit if they weren’t provided, but the core message comes through clearly in this swaggering rap anthem for a pony who needs no introduction: You can clip the sound waves but you can never clip my wings!

Ethan Toavs – Odysseys | Orchestral

There’s always been a plethora of great orchestral talent in this fandom and Ethan Toavs shows off his composition skills in this epic piece. There’s an urgency to the beginning of the track which grows and changes as more instruments are added. The dangerous feel turns into a pretty, softer section while always maintaining a spacing that feels like a big, open landscape, so it’s easy to think of the new G5 characters venturing on their own “Odysseys”!

Violight – Becoming Popular (covering Daniel Ingram & Kazumi Evans) | Pop

We probably don’t feature enough purely vocal covers, so this is a nice welcome addition to our usual features. Violight’s cover of Rarity’s solo song Becoming Popular is delightful with a bit of a softer touch than the original. She even handles the harmony line fabulously!

TM – Forever [Remastered] | Plunderphonics

THE Toby Macaroni is back with an upgraded version of Forever, a piece written almost entirely from short pieces of many G4 songs. The compositional choices for song segments, as well as use of sound space are mesmerizing with how they work when played together and fun to challenge yourself to remember which songs they are from. The sensation that comes from listening to this track (especially through headphones!) cannot be adequately described, only experienced.

Ethan Toavs – Battle of Destinies | Orchestral

It is amazing time and time again, from how little of things muscians can draw inspiration and weave entire stories, and Ethan Toavs brings us another perfect example of such with his “Battle of Destinies”. The whole piece manages to create and increase tension from start to its conclusion, starting off with a military rhythm of the drums, brass, woodwinds and strings first working together to introduce the orchestration used to the listener, just for those to exchange turns with each other. And as soon as the percussion switches to a more rocky style and the whole orchestration sets back in together, the song will make you vividly imagine the armies of Nightmare Moon and Daybreaker start charging each other, both sides hopeful for victory. So make sure to let this awesome piece of musical storytelling inspire you as well by giving it a listen!
