In yet another case of an older fandom musician making a grand return, Silverwing has just released the appropriately titled New Beginnings, his first official track since Tranquil Memories from May 2015! New Beginnings is a lovely improvisational solo piano piece that sounds hopeful and optimistic about the new future that we may get now that FiM has ended. The slow pace makes it feel like the start of a new era after the old one closed out with a bang. Welcome back, Silverwing! We can’t wait to see what you come out with next.

We’ve come to the fifth and final track of Jyc Row’s amazing Legion EP, this one centred around the EP’s established legion of doom. Serving as the closing track, it’s only fitting that the pure epic orchestral feelings are turned up to eleven here, and the inclusion of vocalist Celica Soldream throughout this 4 part piece further helps makes it flourish. Perfect music for the inevitable final battle!

The penultimate track from Jyc Row’s Legion EP is here, and it’s a truly menacing piece about Grogar. Joining him is Yoed Nir on the cello to really bring this piece to life. All the ominous percussion, choirs, strings and bells come together to perfectly capture Grogar’s personality as a tyrannical leader to be feared. If he ever makes an appearance in a future MLP show, this would be the perfect introductory music.

Radiarc and Frozen Night have joined forces to create the sequel to the former’s old track, Oblivious! This also marks Radiarc’s first ever collaboration with another artist. While half the length, it still manages to be epic and emotional all the same. Starting off slow, a soft string and piano riff is the first part to come into play, before building up to a quick pause, a quiet piano bringing everything down to a simmer. Before long though, everything builds up to a crescendo, the familiar piano and strings being joined by powerful percussion sounds, and then eventually simmers down once again. Radiarc can do great things on their own, but it seems like everything becomes better when others are involved!

Third track of Jyc Row’s Legion EP has been uploaded and stands out by its more devious and fright inducing nature. This time he partnered with fellow part-time orchestral producer Elias Frost, and indeed their styles blend admirably. A creative and slick orchestration is backed up by glitched out and distorted sounds. The level of professionalism throughout, in every layer of the piece, makes it sound as if coming out straight from the soundtrack of a horror film starring the utterly cunning Cozy Glow as the main villain.

Winter is right around the corner, so what better way to welcome it than with a Frozen Night song? This one is the final track from his EP Thorn of the Frozen Star, and it’s another example of his orchestral proficiency, with pianos, strings of many kinds, choirs and the occasional percussion hit all forming a melancholy yet grandiose soundtrack to walking through a snowy plain as the sun shines upon it. As cold as Winter may be, this track will definitely make you feel warm inside!
