Original
[ASOS] Pony Killerz – Nightmare Moon | Complextro
Yet another great track from this amazing album!
We got more Nightmare Moon for ya bronies. To put it simply, this track feels like the very moment in the series premiere where she comes back and goes on a tear of chaos across Equestria before turning her attention on the mane 6. This track on ASOS: Chocolate puts what goes down musically; I mean, that mare of the moon just wants to play with her food. It’s just too bad her food was more than her tastes could handle. This track is just a banger that this mare would improve. As always, this Qilin asks for you to judge for yourself.
[P@D] Dropper Vampire & GrazySmash – Moon On Fire | Big Room House
This is WAR! Oh my, this track erupts from P@D: Eclipse with a showdown of solar fire and lunar energy. This track set the mood of finding out who is the more powerful sister, Nightmare Moon vs Daybreaker. Dropper and Grazy, with their combined talents, create this big feeling of godly fighting levels. Fitting for a big room house as this track tells the story of the sisters having a war while demonstrating their powers; the melodies do paint that picture with all the big energy drops and traveling melodies. It feels like you are watching this live on PPV with a video package, with these two evil alicorns just talking about how much they hate each other. There is such a prominent feeling of pure chaos and darkness as those drops, vocal chops and some orchestra elements do their stuff. This track is so explosive and these two sure got it right with these other two titans trying to fight and tear each other apart with their destructive powers! As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
RUL – Together | Trance
We got another 10th anniversary FiM piece here, and oh boy, it’s a dance friendly one too! They say that the party never ends or that the train ride of this fandom keeps moving forward not knowing where it’s going to lead. The beat is very interesting as the melody goes through different kinds of beats, changing up the harmonics and elements as the dance fever goes up with each transition. It’s a really fun track yet from another DustCar comp! RuL, I agree with the comment section. You’re growing and making some waves! As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
[ASOS] Tripon – Then She Said | Neurofunk
In linguistics, amelioration is the upgrading of a negative term to a positive one. Then She Said, Tripon’s newest Neurofunk tune is a perfectly appropriate example of this phenomenon. Then She Said is nasty, disgusting, filthy, and vile, all at once, yet it contains exemplary uses of sound design. From the minor seconds pad, to the terrifying basses, to the crunchy Rarity sample, this piece creates many auditory innovations that justify calling this tune wicked, mental, and insane. This is definitely a highlight for me from the compilation album this utterly sleazy ditty originates from, A State of Sugar: Chocolate. This tune is all the more reason to pay attention to Tripon’s super secret upcoming album!
brambleshadow4 – To Become an Alicorn | Ambient/Orchestral
Out of brambleshadow4’s upcoming series of musical pieces based on the mane six comes To Become an Alicorn, which is Twilight’s piece! Mindful of fantasia, the mystical chord changes are the beauty of this track. Truly following Twilight Sparkle’s narrative, the beginning of this track sounds like the curiosity of learning, then the euphoria of success, then the troubling dissonance of odd unknown happenings, and finally, triumph. I can’t wait to hear how cool the other tracks sound!
Nyancat380 – I’ve found this song in my lost files folder… | Breakcore
Nyancat, I know you’re going to read this bro. Right off the bat, you are such a psycho with your music, dude! For everyone else who doesn’t know Nyancat, he is very unique with his product–yeah, I will just say that, ha ha! This song has Pinkie’s Wonderbolt rap mixed in with elements that seem fitting for what goes through miss Pie’s mind 24/7. Breakcore is all these things mixed together, and it sounds so over the top as if the Animaniacs put this song together. Mashcore is the way of making it all fit together and flow. This track goes wildly around that, and you really do think you are in the mind of Pinkie Pie, 100%. Honestly just listening to this music is very enjoyable. As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
Radiarc – Reminisce | Orchestra
Long-time brony musician veteran Radiarc joins the party with another touching and pretty FiM 10th anniversary piece to add to the list of so many musicians releasing on this date. The message of this track plays on the mind. You are not what you once were when you entered this fandom. For me that is the real truth. This piece is just glorious with such soft piano, violin, and really nice choir vocals in the background. Clear your mind and think about your journey through this fandom and how those characters or the friends you’ve made in this fandom have changed you and help mold you. The melodies and harmonies of this piece will have you, for better or worse, looking back and smiling fondly at your journey to here. As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
Lord Sunfyre – Nothing’s Perfect (feat. GazPony & BreeBree) | Pop Punk
More Pony Life music! The track is brought to you by yet another brony punk rocker, Lord Sunfyre. They are joined by GazPony’s energetic vocals and mixed by Bree, and together they have created a track with some classic punk rock guitar and pace, and lyrics with a message to the fandom. Things are never perfect, nor is the show Pony Life, but the fandom can live on regardless. The vocals and the rockin’ instrumentation speed through this track with the same madcap energy of the show. The video itself has the nice touch of showing moments from all nine seasons of FiM, which is another strong reminder of why we are here. Give this dude some love! As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.
Power Note – Night and Day | Melodic Dubstep
How about something wholesome? Power Note’s got you covered with Night and Day, a sweet and sour melodic dubstep track that begins with a beautiful melody played by a piano and synthesizers, followed by a build up that leads into a surprisingly harsh synth section with the punchiest of drums! As it goes on, the heavenly piano jumps right back in to replace the heavy synths to give the song time to breathe, before building up yet again with an almost future bass-y kind of sound which carries on throughout the rest of the song. Power Note has a penchant for creating atmospheres. Just listen to how diverse this song gets!
