Here’s another offering from the recent Equinity album! This grandiose orchestral piece from Skyshard wastes no time establishing a Celtic feel, which pairs very nicely with the background image. You’re transported (back) to this otherworldly garden in this sequel to one of their previous songs.
Misc
Evershade – A Thousand Likes (feat. Namii) | Pop
Pop Girl Summer isn’t over yet, so there’s still time to enjoy this upbeat bop from a power pop duo! Evershade’s fun and breezy approach to pop music is a great match for Namii’s guest vocals on this song about being the most glamorous pony at the poolside. Grab a drink, take a listen and imagine yourself living the high life with Pipp Petals.
[Equinity] Yashn – Lost in the Everfree | Orchestral
Featured in Equinity 06, Yashn has constructed a wonderfully dark orchestration here. Opening on tense strings and an ominous whisper of textures this song is episodic in nature going from navigating the mysterious eerie lands to sudden full blown chase sequences with frantic movements and a wide array of instrumentation without being overcrowded! Don’t get lost after dark, and do not trust the shadows.
Vylet Pony – i don’t know how to tell you that you’re my best friend (and that i love you) | Pop
Vylet knocks it out once again with a very emotional mouthful of a song! Opening with a myriad of stellar stereo cacophony and heartwarming vocals the stage is not only set as something great it gets raised even higher with the ever changing energy and vibe this song plays out in what feels like different acts that grab your attention and refuse to let go! ‘tell you’, in short; A truly wonderful piece that goes by in a flash but leaves a lasting impression.
ElectroKaplosion – Little Mare Story (Love Yourself) | Reggae / Acoustic
Today I’m happy to present you with this gem of a tune! Featuring not too many instruments ElectroKaplosion brings us this fun reggae tune with a uniquely comforting nature. The track is one big, uplifting poem all about self love and how appreciated everyone is, even if it doesn’t feel like it sometimes.
Luck Rock – More Pinkie Pie | Showtunes / Pop
Luck Rock’s latest track resurfaces an older demo originally written back in 2018. “More Pinkie Pie” is a fun song based on “Too Many Pinkie Pies” from season 3. It features very smooth, glass-like synths and piano reminiscent of the mirror pool. The lyrics play on the episode’s plot, mentioning the doublings with its numeric chorus, but also the more sinister side of “counting the bodies” as her friends try to find the real Pinkie. Hopefully they find the right one.
Nugget – Rizz | Orchestral / Trap
Today Nugget brings is something new and fresh, something I’ve never seen before! Combining the melodic sounds of orchestral with the hard hitting drums of trap he creates a new form of banger that works way better then it should! Definitely give this track a listen and enjoy this special sound!
Equinity 06: Expedition | Compilation Album
In case you missed the release party at the end of last month, the compilation collective Equinity released their sixth album. Most of the 42 individual songs on this release are electronic, from house to dubstep to drum & bass, but there is the occasional rock or orchestral piece here and there. The artists featured this time around are also more diverse – some regular names make an appearance but there are also some new faces to add to the Equinity sonic universe.
All proceeds from Equinity’s albums also go to charity. For this album, the team have chosen to donate Hivos, an organization striving to bring gender equality, climate justice and several other important topics to attention especially in lesser developed areas of the world.
Expedition is available to download for any price from Equinity’s Bandcamp.
Nexgen – Hot Pony Summer (ft. SOUND BANDIT) | Hip-Hop
Nexgen bringing the fire in summer with his track together with SOUND BANDIT, featuring a massive beat and everything from hard hitting, quick vocals to slower, stabby raps, this track got it all! And the rhymes are just fire, from references to The Devil Wears Prada to fun lines like “leader of the pack, yeah they call me dawg”, this track is a firework of lyrics! Definitely give this track a listen!
rawrity – touching grass | pop
The phrase “Go Touch Grass” has often been a negative phrase that people tell others on the internet to go chill out, get off the internet, and go outside. However, rawrity changes the stigma with one of her newest songs “touching grass.” From the synth buildup, to the fade out, what I appreciate most about this song is how it feels like a wakeup call that can be interpreted however it is needed, and the chill melody adds onto that realization. You can really tell when a musician puts their heart and soul into a piece, and this piece is no exception; this is always something I love about rawrity’s work: every single song was made with 100% pure passion and emotion, which I feel is how music should be.
