AstralAmity’s powerful experiences have led her to imbue much depth in her works, and it is certainly palpable in this intro track from an upcoming album! From the inspired experimentation and progression, to the use of different instruments and styles, to the epic storytelling, this moving Overture is delivering much emotion and depth, and shows what you can expect from the album!
Orchestral
Equestria Electric Symphony Orchestra – Rainbow Dash (Soar Into The Blue) | Synthpop / Orchestral
I like this, thissa good track :3 I like the lyrical arrangement and that playing together with the melody. As someone myself with feelings for somebody I care about a lot (and like, truly love) I can relate to this track. The symphony is performed marvelously and I really enjoyed listening to this. Rainbow Dash is proud of y’all ❤ Well done guys, great work!
[ASOS] RoomVR – Let’s Go For A Walk | Orchestral
RoomVR’s heartfelt new masterpiece moved the audience a lot during the live release party of A State of Sugar Bubblegum, and its storytelling intent and personal meanings are certainly a part of what made the track to be so impactful. Music is magic, and in times like these it can not only make you feel powerful and otherworldly emotions, but also convey the creator’s feelings and being thus empowered by that. Insane talent, beautiful creativity and musical vision, personal feelings, and an intent to share them, all contributed to make this divine experience of sound possible. Truly an amazing tribute to what you can feel while being surrounded by the beauty and peace of Nature, during a walk in the woods…
Elias Frost – While My Yovidaphone Gently Drones | Traditional Yak Music
Playing on the name of the classic While My Guitar Gently Weeps from The Beatles, Elias Frost follows up on the early-released new episode with more yovidaphone play that would impress more than one yak. Complete with mighty percussions representing the pride of the yak kingdom, and other traditional instruments, the song is a much welcome continuation to the episode’s lore and pays much tribute to it.
Yak happy! Yak smash!
[ASOS] Heartsong – Cavorting the Castle | Soundtrack
One of my faves from A State of Sugar Bubblegum, Cavorting the Castle takes inspiration from the kind of BGM you’d hear in castle-like areas in RPG games, with fitting regal and medieval vibes, and hints of a playful side too! Heartsong (formerly DoctorSympony) displays their talent once more by perfectly emulating that style using various instruments, and creating a piece that would fit so very well as an OST track.
Zephysonas – My Little Pony: Sunset Shimmer Simulator (Original Score) | Orchestral
Those of you feeling powerful things for MLP characters might be able to relate to the story unfolding in this track, and for me it certainly made it so very emotional. Zephysonas signs a conceptual masterpiece with this original score composed to fit the progression of the story of the comic Sunset Shimmer Simulator, and it does it so very well, representing every part with the corresponding mood, and always with such musical talent. If you cried while listening to this piece and watching the video, know that you aren’t the only one…

4EverfreeBrony – When Morning Is Come (feat. Namii) | Piano Ballad
Dedicated to the Crystal Empire and exploring its history in a grand musical way, this duet from 4EverfreeBrony and Namii sings a song of hope with awe-inspiring vocals and OST-like melodies. A masterpiece of both vocal and instrumental prowess, it lights the Crystal Empire’s future as a dawn lights the land.
TheMusicReborn – Now I’m Free | Musical
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 5 July 2018.
TheMusicReborn always makes some pretty interesting music, and this new piece about Discord is done in the style you might expect to hear in a musical. The tone is playful and fits the character perfectly as Reborn sings as Discord about all the chaos he brings.
Jyc Row & PegasYs – Going Far (feat. Michelle Creber) | Orchestral
NB: This was originally posted on Equestria Daily on 30 June 2018.
Teaming up with PegasYs, Jyc Row has a new track featuring a prominent voice from the show! After Onwards last year which included Aloma Steele, the singing voice of Luna’s Future, he’s now teamed up with Michelle Creber, voice of Applebloom. The orchestral instrumental complements the vocals and PegasYs’ lyrics and vocal melodies fit Michelle’s voice wonderfully.
